Whenever data is imported into or exported out of Amazon S3, you'll get a downloadable PDF job report. For import
jobs, this report becomes available at the very end of the import process. For export jobs, your job report typically
becomes available for you while the Snowball for your job part is being delivered to you.

The job report provides you insight into the state of your Amazon S3 data transfer. The report includes details about
your job or job part for your records. The job report also includes a table that provides a high-level overview of the
total number of objects and bytes transferred between the Snowball and Amazon S3.

For deeper visibility into the status of your transferred objects, you can look at the two associated logs: a success log
and a failure log. The logs are saved in comma-separated value (CSV) format, and the name of each log includes the
ID of the job or job part that the log describes.

You can download the report and the logs from the AWS Snow Family Management Console.

To get your job report and logs

1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the AWS Snow Family Management Console
(https://console.aws.amazon.com/snowfamily/home) .

2. Select your job or job part from the table and expand the status pane.

Three options appear for getting your job report and logs: Get job report, Download success log, and Download
failure log.
