3- On the Details page, from the More Actions drop-down list, select Restart.

To Terminate an Autonomous Data Warehouse

Terminating an Autonomous Data Warehouse database permanently deletes the instance and removes all automatic backups. So you cannot recover a terminated database.

2- On the Autonomous Databases page select an Autonomous Data Warehouse instance from the links under the Name column.
3- On the Details page, from the More Actions drop-down list, select Terminate.
