Creating an Inventory

Create an inventory when you start using your tenancy in OCI.

    1. Open the navigation menu  and select Migration & Disaster Recovery. Under Cloud Migrations, select Inventory.
    2. On the Inventory overview page, select Create.
      Note

      The Create button appears only if an inventory hasn't already been created. Inventory is a regional resource and only one exists at a time.
    The inventory is created in a few minutes.
    You can now create an asset source.

  • To create an inventory, use the create command.

    oci cloud-bridge inventory inventory create --compartment-id target_compartment_ID --display-name inventory_name [OPTIONS]
    The required parameters for the create command are:
    • --compartment-id: Specifies the OCID of the tenant ID.
    • --display-name: Specifies the name of the inventory.
