Creating Oracle connections

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Database Migration database connection resources contain the connectivity details of the migration source and target databases. Create connection database resources in the Database Migration Databases Connections page for the following databases:

• Oracle Autonomous Database
• Oracle Database
• Oracle Exadata
• Amazon RDS for Oracle

Note:

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Database Migration service runs network connectivity tests followed by database login tests (to validate credentials) using the information that you provided while creating database connections. See Testing Connectivity of a Database Connection.

Note:

If the source database is a multitenant container database (CDB), you are performing an online migration, and if you have a pluggable database as a source with version earlier than Oracle Database 21c, you must create two connection entries for the source database: one for the PDB and one for the CDB. For offline migrations only the PDB connection is required.

You will create only one database connection resource for the target database.
