Posted on July 16, 2020 by AutoUpgrade 5

I have heard and received this question several times. And I always pointed people to the status logs in AutoUpgrade’s logging directory. But I wasn’t aware how simple the monitoring can be.

And as things progress quickly, and we have smart developers in the upgrade team, I had to refresh this blog post soon after. See below …

DBMS_DATAPUMP Import Over NETWORK_LINK fails with ORA-39126 / ORA-31600
