Output

The data retrieved by Snow Inventory Oracle Middleware Scanner is stored in JSON files and placed in one of the following designated locations, depending on the platform:

PlatformOutput path
Linux/var/run/SnowSoftware/Inventory/Agent/script-output/<script name>
Unix/var/tmp/SnowSoftware/Inventory/Agent/script-output/<script name>
Windows%ProgramData%/SnowSoftware/Inventory/Agent/script-output/<script name>

Snow Inventory Agents, version 6 or later, search these designated locations for output from Snow Inventory components, such as Snow Inventory Oracle Middleware Scanner, or other scripts. The agent consolidates the output data with other inventory data and sends the results to a Snow Inventory endpoint (Snow Inventory Server or Snow Extender).

The following JSON files are generated:

Output folderFilenameDescription
SiomsOvsmetadata.jsonContains metadata information related to the scan
SiomsOvsovs_files.jsonContains base64 encoded archive binary, containing the following files that are used for the Oracle verified data functionality in Snow License Manager:
  • All files found during the filesystem scan
  • Information related to running processes defined above
  • Information related to available drives and types
  • Output of the “opmnctl status” command, if present
This archive could potentially contain files found during the filesystem scan that are not related to Oracle products, due to the fact that some of the filenames are common and are defined according to Oracle requirements during the verification process.
SiomsOvsovs_status.jsonContains information related to the execution status of the scan.
SnowMiddlewareScannerV2metadata.jsonContains metadata information related to the scan.
SnowMiddlewareScannerV2ora_inventory.jsonContains information related to installed middleware components.
SnowMiddlewareScannerV2ora_domain_conf.jsonContains information related to middleware domains, servers, and clusters.
