IPS : Incident Packaging Service

IPS : Incident Packaging Service.

 

The Incident Package Service : IPS is an extension of Automatic Diagnostic Repository : ADR

An IPS package is a packaging of diagnostic data in order to be send to Oracle Support Services

1. can package diagnostic data in the ADR related to a specific incident
2. can package diagnostic data in the ADR related to a specific problem
3. can package diagnostic data in the ADR related to incidents occured in a time interval

The physical package is zipped together, the goal is packaging of diagnostic data and --- have it sent --- send to Oracle Support Services

One can use IPS using Oracle Enterprise Manager. If the Metalink Credentials are properly configured the packaged diagnostic information can easily be sent to Oracle Support Services.

The command line interface is called ADRCI : ADR Command Interpreter

I post some ADR gym, rather easy to understand.
