Migration of My Services to Cloud Console

Summary

The service management administration for all Oracle cloud services on the My Services Cloud Classic Console will be migrated to the Oracle Cloud Console. The upcoming migration continues Oracle's ongoing efforts to provide greater consistency, transparency and customer control of the environment, user, and notification management processes. Oracle customers will now be able to manage all their Oracle Cloud Services in a single place. It is important to note that there is no change in how the services run or how your users use the services.

Timeline

Oracle will complete the migration for all services by Monday, March 31, 2025.

Key Highlights

• New Environment Management Tools: Environment management is now to be handled in the OCI Console, rather than the legacy My Services portal.
• New Notification Management Tools: Notification management is now be handled by the Announcements service in the in the OCI Console, rather than the legacy My Services portal. See Console Announcements in the OCI documentation for more information on using the Announcements service.
• Modernized Email Notification Format: Email communications now use a new format consistent across all Oracle Cloud Services.

Issues That Might Require Your Attention

The My Services Cloud Classic Console will no longer be accessible after Monday, March 31, 2025. We recommend that customers download any important content from My Services Cloud Classic Console (such as license consumption and usage reports, business reports, and other necessary information) no later than this date.

Also note the following:

• Contacts will be migrated from My Services to the OCI Console.
  • The original Service Admin contacts created when your environment was provisioned will receive email notifications by default.
  • All other contacts created by using the legacy My Services portal have been migrated to the OCI Console, and those contacts will continue to receive notifications.
  • The initial post-migration announcement subscription created for these other contacts will have a name similar to "migrated announcement subscription 1".
• Contact preferences will not be migrated
  • Time Zone, language, announcement type and environment preferences previously set in My Services will not carry over with the contacts to the OCI Console.
  • Because the preferences are not carried over into OCI Console, all notifications will initially be sent in English with the UTC time zone, and each contact will receive all notifications for all environments in the cloud account.
  • Any changes to these preferences will need to be recreated through the announcement subscription process in the OCI Console. See the links in For More Information in this topic for instructions on updating preferences.
  • Customers with large numbers of contacts might find it easier to create new subscriptions and then delete the one created by Oracle as part of the migration.
