1. On the Database Home page, under Alerts, locate the alert that you want to investigate and click the Message link.

   A page that contains further information about the alert appears.

2. Do one of the following:

   • Follow the recommendations.

   • Run Automatic Database Diagnostic Monitor (ADDM) or another advisor to get more detailed diagnostics of the system or object behavior.
