Oracle AWR reports generating hourly in Standard Edition 12.1

Hi,

We are a standard edition company and recently found out that AWR is generating snapshots hourly on our databases and I dont understand why.

SQL> col systimestamp form a35

SQL> col most_recent_snap_time form a25

SQL> col snap_interval form a17

SQL> select systimestamp, most_recent_snap_time, snap_interval from wrm$_wr_control where dbid = (se

lect dbid from v$database);
