Recovery Procedure for EDCMs running STC GPL

In this scenario, this message typically occurs if STC port does not get a DHCP lease from IMF/ESP side. However, it could also be due to bad hardware or bad port on STC card. This error may be due to mis-configured IMF/ESP switches that may not send DHCP lease to STC card.
  1. Use the rept-stat-card command to view STC status.
    The following is an example of a possible output:

    If the STC is in service and one of the ports is showing UAM0084, then this port is not getting the address from the DHCP server.
  2. If rept-stat-card shows that both ports are in UAM0084 state then use the netstat –I command to determine if the Ethernet interfaces are up.
    1. If they are up, then IMF/ESP support should be involved to find out why this port is not getting the DHCP.
    2. If the concerned ports are not up, then it could be a hardware issue, replace the card. See the Maintenance Manual, Appendix A, Card Removal/Replacement Procedures.
  3. If the alarm is not cleared, contact My Oracle Support (MOS).
