feedback

Sends feedback to Oracle and to the Service Administrators of the environment and automatically uploads all the EPM Automate log files created in the last 24 hours from the current directory.

You may, optionally, upload additional files (for example Fiddler trace files) that you may want Oracle Support to use to diagnose why the current issue occurs.

This command, which mimics the Provide Feedback feature of the service, is especially useful for providing feedback to Oracle in cases where the user interface is unresponsive or you encounter an issue while running EPM Automate.

For information on the Provide Feedback feature, see Helping Oracle Collect Diagnostic Information Using the Provide Feedback Utility in Getting Started with Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud for Administrators.

This command returns a message, similar to the following, informing that feedback does not create a service request. If you need help from Oracle to resolve an issue, you must file a service request. The command displays a UDR reference number, which you should include in the service request that you file.
