Monitoring job status

In Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Database Migration, there are several places in the Console from which you can monitor the status of a migration job to varying degrees.

Job Details page

On the Migration Details page, you can click Jobs, and see information about the jobs run with this resource.

You can click Download Log to view the log generated by Database Migration Service.

Below the job information details you can click the Metrics, Phases, and Unsupported Objects to get more information about the migration job.

Job Details - Phases

On a migration resource detail page, you can click Jobs, then the job name, then Phases, and see the phases of the job that have completed, are pending, and are currently running (labeled Started).

For any phase that has some error or warning text (or log) to display, the phase name is displayed as a clickable hyperlink, and the phase's action items menu includes View Details. Clicking on the phase name link or View details action opens a View phase details panel which displays the details of the error or warning

If there is a log available for download, an option appears in the action menu to allow download. You can also download logs using a button in the View phase details panel. The View phase details panel displays the following information:
  • Name: Name of the phase
  • Status: Status of the phase. A failed status informs you that the job failed.
  • Duration: Time elapsed from the beginning of the phase till the point where the error occurred.
  • Issue: The issue causing the job failure.
  • Action: The action you can perform to resolve the error.
  • Error messages: The validation or migration errors causing the job failure.

Download Log downloads the Data Pump log. Applies to jobs run in migration mode in the Export Initial Load and Import Initial Load phases.

The Validate pre-migration advisor phase is a special case, because this link opens the Validation pre-migration advisor detail page, from which you can download the Cloud Pre-migration Advisor Tool (CPAT) report, view the CPAT report statistics, and drill down in the Checks list.
Note

In case your migration job fails for the Initialize replication infrastructure phase, the job status is set as cancelled.

For more information about the CPAT report and interactive details page, see Checking the Premigration Advisor Report.

For details about the migration work flow phases, see Oracle migration phases.

For information about metrics, see Metrics.
