Recovery

  1. This value provides a measure of how many egress messages M3RL discarded because of an internal buffer overflow. This should never occur, but may be caused by an unusually higher setting of either a T1, T3, or T6 time value. The default for these values is set 60ms, but set as high as 2000ms by the user.
  2. The current M3RL timer values can be viewed and modified at SS7/Sigratn, and then Configuration, and then MTP3 Options. An internal overflow condition may occur if the IP network is unstable causing M3RL to invoke multiple changeover/changeback procedures as links fail and recover.
  3. Verify that IP network connectivity exists between the vSTP server and the adjacent servers.
  4. Check the event history logs for addition vSTP events or alarms from this vSTP server.
  5. Verify that the adjacent server is not under maintenance.
  6. It is recommended to contact My Oracle Support for assistance if needed
