Snapshot Download Hangs With Use of Special Characters in User Password

Issue: Snapshot will silently fail to run from the Oracle ILOM web interface when using a URL transfer method (FTP/FTP/FTPS/HTTP/HTTPS) that requires a password and the password provided contains one of the following characters: less than sign (<); greater than sign (>); left or right parenthesis (()); single quote ('); double quote ("); backslash (\); semicolon (;); period (.); ampersand (&); dollar sign ($); pipe (|); or apostrophe (').

Workarounds:

  • Use the Oracle ILOM CLI to generate the snapshot.

  • Download the snapshot file rather than sending the to a URL.

  • Change the user account on the remote server to not use a password with non-supported special characters (noted above).
