DESCRIPTION

Creates a source in the specified compartment. In Application Migration, a source refers to the environment from which the application is being migrated. For more information, see Manage Sources <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/application-migration/manage_sources.htm>.

All Oracle Cloud Infrastructure resources, including sources, get an Oracle-assigned, unique ID called an Oracle Cloud Identifier (OCID). When you create a resource, you can find its OCID in the response. You can also retrieve a resource’s OCID by using a List API operation on that resource type, or by viewing the resource in the Console.

After you send your request, a source is created in the specified compartment. The new source’s lifecycle state will temporarily be <code>CREATING</code>. Application Migration connects to the source environment with the authentication credentials that you have provided. If the connection is established, the status of the source changes to <code>ACTIVE</code> and Application Migration fetches the list of applications that are available for migration in the source environment.

To track the progress of the operation, you can monitor the status of the Create Source work request by using the <code>`GetWorkRequest <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/tools/oci-cli/latest/oci_cli_docs/cmdref/application-migration/work-request/get.html>`__</code> REST API operation on the work request or by viewing the status of the work request in the console.

Ensure that the state of the source has changed to <code>ACTIVE</code>, before you retrieve the list of applications from the source environment using the <code>`ListSourceApplications <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/tools/oci-cli/latest/oci_cli_docs/cmdref/application-migration/source-application/list.html>`__</code> REST API call.

USAGE

oci application-migration source create [OPTIONS]

REQUIRED PARAMETERS

--compartment-id, -c [text]

    The OCID <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/identifiers.htm> of the compartment that contains the source.

--source-details [complex type]

    This is a complex type whose value must be valid JSON. The value can be provided as a string on the command line or passed in as a file using the file://path/to/file syntax.

    The --generate-param-json-input option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.

OPTIONAL PARAMETERS

--authorization-details [complex type]

    This is a complex type whose value must be valid JSON. The value can be provided as a string on the command line or passed in as a file using the file://path/to/file syntax.

    The --generate-param-json-input option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.

--defined-tags [complex type]

    Defined tags for this resource. Each key is predefined and scoped to a namespace. For more information, see Resource Tags <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/Content/General/Concepts/resourcetags.htm>. Example: {“Operations”: {“CostCenter”: “42”}} This is a complex type whose value must be valid JSON. The value can be provided as a string on the command line or passed in as a file using the file://path/to/file syntax.

    The --generate-param-json-input option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.

--description [text]

    Description of the source. This helps you to identify the appropriate source environment when you have multiple sources defined.

--display-name [text]

    Name of the source. This helps you to identify the appropriate source environment when you have multiple sources defined.

--freeform-tags [complex type]

    Free-form tags for this resource. Each tag is a simple key-value pair with no predefined name, type, or namespace. For more information, see Resource Tags <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/Content/General/Concepts/resourcetags.htm>. Example: {“Department”: “Finance”} This is a complex type whose value must be valid JSON. The value can be provided as a string on the command line or passed in as a file using the file://path/to/file syntax.

    The --generate-param-json-input option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.

--from-json [text]

    Provide input to this command as a JSON document from a file using the file://path-to/file syntax.

    The --generate-full-command-json-input option can be used to generate a sample json file to be used with this command option. The key names are pre-populated and match the command option names (converted to camelCase format, e.g. compartment-id –> compartmentId), while the values of the keys need to be populated by the user before using the sample file as an input to this command. For any command option that accepts multiple values, the value of the key can be a JSON array.

    Options can still be provided on the command line. If an option exists in both the JSON document and the command line then the command line specified value will be used.

    For examples on usage of this option, please see our “using CLI with advanced JSON options” link: https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/API/SDKDocs/cliusing.htm#AdvancedJSONOptions

--max-wait-seconds [integer]

    The maximum time to wait for the work request to reach the state defined by --wait-for-state. Defaults to 1200 seconds.

--wait-for-state [text]

    This operation asynchronously creates, modifies or deletes a resource and uses a work request to track the progress of the operation. Specify this option to perform the action and then wait until the work request reaches a certain state. Multiple states can be specified, returning on the first state. For example, --wait-for-state SUCCEEDED --wait-for-state FAILED would return on whichever lifecycle state is reached first. If timeout is reached, a return code of 2 is returned. For any other error, a return code of 1 is returned.

    Accepted values are:

    ACCEPTED, CANCELED, CANCELING, FAILED, IN_PROGRESS, SUCCEEDED

--wait-interval-seconds [integer]

    Check every --wait-interval-seconds to see whether the work request to see if it has reached the state defined by --wait-for-state. Defaults to 30 seconds.

GLOBAL PARAMETERS

Use oci --help for help on global parameters.

--auth-purpose, --auth, --cert-bundle, --cli-rc-file, --config-file, --debug, --defaults-file, --endpoint, --generate-full-command-json-input, --generate-param-json-input, --help, --latest-version, --max-retries, --no-retry, --opc-client-request-id, --opc-request-id, --output, --profile, --query, --raw-output, --region, --release-info, --request-id, --version, -?, -d, -h, -v

EXAMPLES

Copy and paste the following example into a JSON file, replacing the example parameters with your own.

    oci application-migration source create --generate-param-json-input source-details > source-details.json

Copy the following CLI commands into a file named example.sh. Run the command by typing “bash example.sh” and replacing the example parameters with your own.

Please note this sample will only work in the POSIX-compliant bash-like shell. You need to set up the OCI configuration <https://docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/Content/API/SDKDocs/cliinstall.htm#configfile> and appropriate security policies <https://docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/Content/Identity/Concepts/policygetstarted.htm> before trying the examples.
