Upload Logs to a Service Request
If a job fails during the migration process, collect and upload the following information to your Service Request (SR) to assist with troubleshooting.
- Check the Utility version.
Run the following command to determine the version of Oracle Exadata Cloud Infrastructure Migration Utility:
/home/opc>./exacloudmigration -V - Retrieve failed job details.
Use the following command to view the details and status of the failed job:
/home/opc>./exacloudmigration get_job_status -i <jobid>For example, failed job ID is 1:
/home/opc>./exacloudmigration get_job_status -i 1 - Identify the Template Files used for the job.
Template files used during job execution are located under:
/home/opc> ./inputs/infra_<source_infra_name>/The template file names are typically:
infrastructure_inputscloudvmcluster_inputsdatabase_inputs
You can also identify the specific template file name from the
get_job_statuscommand output. Look for the line containing the text Command Executed.For example:
2025-03-12T10:37:09.893Z [main] INFO - Fetching the status of the JobCommand Executed : /home/opc>./exacloudmigration delete_standby -i inputs/infra_infrax9m/vmcluster_ecmvm1/database_inputs -l testdb Utility version
- Collect Job log files
Compress the contents of the following log directory:
/home/opc>./exacloudmigration_data/logs/Upload the zipped log folder to your Service Request.
- Collect additional logs (if applicable)
If the failure occurred during Data Guard operations such as
dgassociation,switchover, orfailover, collect additional diagnostic logs from the target cluster.Run the following command to collect diagnostic logs for one hour before and after the issue:
dbaascli diag collect --startTime YYYY-MM-DDTHH24:MM:SS --endTime YYYY-MM-DDTHH24:MM:SS --dbNames <value> --waitForCompletion falseIf you need to collect logs for multiple databases, specify a comma-separated list of database names for the
--dbNamesparameter.For example:
--dbNames db1,db2,db3
