Data Transport:Lease for a single time

Last Updated:Dec 26, 2025

This topic describes operations after you migrate data by using a Data Transport Micro device, including device power-off, device return, data migration to the cloud, and verification of data migration.

Prerequisites

All data is migrated to a Data Transport Micro device and the device is powered off.

Return the device

  1. Power off the device

  • Press and hold the power button on the back panel of a Data Transport Micro device for about 3 seconds and release the button when you hear a beep sound.

  • Check the LED indicators on the front panel of the device. When all the LED indicators are off, unplug the power cord and Ethernet cable. The device is powered off.

  1. Make sure that the power cord is complete.

  2. Return the Data Transport Micro device through the specified logistics company that cooperates with Alibaba Cloud.

Migrate data to the cloud and verify the migration result

Grant permissions to a RAM role

Alibaba Cloud uses a specific RAM role to upload data in the Data Transport II device to the Object Storage Service (OSS) bucket that you specified. You must grant the required permissions to the RAM role. Perform the following steps to grant the required permissions to the RAM role:

Important

If you use bucket policies to grant permissions to the RAM role by specifying policy statements, the new policy statement overwrites the existing policy statement. Make sure that the new policy statement contains the content of the existing policy statement. Otherwise, operations related to the existing policy statement may fail.

  • Log on to the OSS console.

  • In the left-side navigation pane, click Buckets and click the name of the desired bucket.

  • In the left-side navigation pane, choose Permission Control > Bucket Policy.

  • On the Bucket Policy tab, select Add by Syntax. In the editor, click Edit, specify a custom bucket policy, and then click Save.

    • Grant the RAM role the permissions to list, read, and delete objects in and write objects to the destination bucket.

Note

The following policy statement is for your reference only. Replace the following parameters with the actual values. Do not retain angle brackets (<>).

  • <mybucket>: Specify the name of the destination bucket.

  • <myuid>: Specify the UID of the Alibaba Cloud account to which the destination bucket belongs.

Replace only the preceding parameters. In this example, a RAM user whose UID is 1986505809429276 and whose name is mgw-data-transport-role is used. For more information about the RAM policies for OSS, see Common examples of RAM policies.

{
  "Version": "1",
  "Statement": [

      "Effect": "Allow",
      "Action": [
        "oss:List*",

    }

}

Migrate data to the cloud

Alibaba Cloud uses a specific RAM role that has the required permissions to migrate the data in the Data Transport II device to the cloud. After the data is migrated to the cloud, Alibaba Cloud provides you with a data migration report. You can verify the migration results based on the data migration report. At this point, the data migration task is complete.

Important

After the data migration task is complete, the data migration report is stored in a specific OSS bucket. For more information, see the Data migration report section.

Data migration report

After a data migration report is generated, the migration report files are stored in a specific OSS bucket. The directories in which migration report files are stored are shown in the following code block:

OSS://<bucket>/<prefix>/aliyun_import_report/<uid>/<jobid>/<runtimeid>/total_list/
OSS://<bucket>/<prefix>/aliyun_import_report/<uid>/<jobid>/<runtimeid>/failed_list/
OSS://<bucket>/<prefix>/aliyun_import_report/<uid>/<jobid>/<runtimeid>/skipped_list/

Field

Description

bucket

The OSS bucket to which data is migrated.

prefix

The prefix contained in the name of the directory in the bucket to which you migrate the data.

uid

The UID provided by Alibaba Cloud. Example: 1986505809429276.

jobid

The data migration task ID provided by Alibaba Cloud.

runtimeid

The execution record ID of the data migration task. This ID is provided by Alibaba Cloud.

A migration report contains three types of files: the file that lists all files that are migrated, the file that lists the files that failed to be migrated, and the file that lists the files that are skipped during migration. You can download these files and view them for more details. We recommend that you use ossutil 1.0 to view these files.

Note

Rules for naming the migration report files

  • A file named uid@jobid@runtimeid_total_list_n lists all files to be migrated. One or more files of this type may exist. The value of n is an integer greater than or equal to 0.

  • A file named uid@jobid@runtimeid_failed_list_n lists the files that fail to be migrated. One or more files of this type may exist. The value of n is an integer greater than or equal to 0.

  • A file named uid@jobid@runtimeid_skipped_list_n lists the files that are skipped during migration. One or more files of this type may exist. The value of n is an integer greater than or equal to 0.

The fields contained in the migration report files describe various attributes of the files during the migration from the Data Transport II device to the destination bucket. The following table describes the fields.

Field

Description

srcObjectName

The name of the source file.

destObjectName

The name of the destination file.

srcObjectSize

The size of the source file.

destObjectSize

The size of the destination file.

srcContentMd5

The MD5 hash value of the source file, which is used for data consistency verification.

destContentMd5

The MD5 hash value of the destination file, which is used for data consistency verification.

srcCrc64

The CRC-64 value of the source file, which is used for data consistency verification.

destCrc64

The CRC-64 value of the destination file, which is used for data consistency verification.

srcLastModified

The time when the source file was last modified.

destLastModified

The time when the destination file was last modified.

srcVersionId

This field is left empty.

destVersionId

This field is left empty.

startTime

The time when the migration started.

endTime

The time when the migration was complete.

isAbnormal

Indicates whether an exception occurred during migration. A value of false indicates that no exception occurred. A value of true indicates that an exception occurred.

detailMsg

The cause of the exception.

Verify the migration result

Data Transport only migrates data and does not ensure data consistency or integrity. After the migration task is complete, you must check all the migrated data and verify the data consistency between the source and destination data addresses. You must also revoke the permissions on the Data Transport II device granted to the specified RAM role.

Warning

Make sure that you verify the migrated data at the destination after the migration task is complete. If you delete the source data without verifying data consistency between the source and destination data addresses, you are responsible for any losses and consequences that may arise.
