Viewing Inventory Assets

Learn how you can view the inventory assets in Oracle Cloud Migrations.

Using the Console

To view the inventory assets, perform the following steps:
  1. Open the Oracle Cloud Console navigation menu and click Migration. Under Cloud Migrations, click Inventory, and then click Inventory assets.

    The Inventory assets page lists all the assets discovered by the asset discovery from the external environment. The listed assets contain metadata that the discovery plugin collects from the external environment assets.

  2. To view the metadata of an asset, click downarrow for an active asset and expand the information about the asset.
  3. From the actions menu (three_dots) of the asset, choose View details to see more information about the asset.
  4. Under Resources, click Real time metrics to view the metrics for CPU utilization, memory utilization, and so on. The remote agent appliance collects this metrics information.
  5. Under Resources, click Historical metrics to view the metrics collected by VMware vCenter.
Note

The real-time and historical metrics are useful for providing recommendations during Cloud Migrations about which assets need to migrate initially.

You can now create a migration project.
