Caveats and Limitations

The following information lists and describes the caveats and limitations for this release.

Updating Policy Attributes Using the REST API

Oracle® Session Delivery Management Cloud (Oracle SDM Cloud) does not support updating or modifying attributes that uniquely identify a local policy's policy attributes (for example, appProtocol, action, carrierName, dow, endTime, startTime, destRealm, isTermRoute, or nextHop) through the REST API.

To change any of these attributes, you must delete the existing policy attribute and create a new one with the desired values.

This limitation applies to all attributes that serve as unique identifiers for a configuration element.

Concurrent Work Order Limitation

Before initiating a software upgrade or downgrade work order, verify that there are no pending device configuration changes. Software upgrade/downgrade work orders should not be executed concurrently with device configuration work orders.

SBC/ESBC Version Considerations for HDR Reports and Analytics Support

For deployments using the HDR Reports and Analytics feature, Oracle recommends upgrading to SBC/ESBC version S-Cz9.3.0p3. While it is possible to use S-Cz9.3.0, S-Cz9.3.0p1, or S-Cz9.3.0p2 with ssh-rsa for HDR reporting, Oracle does not recommend this approach due to the reduced security offered by ssh-rsa.

Performance Considerations for Oracle SDM Cloud Analytics

  • Clustering and other advanced analytics features, such as outlier classification, can be resource-intensive operations. These features may require longer processing times, particularly when executed on large datasets.
  • When creating visualizations such as bar charts or line charts, Oracle SDM Cloud Analytics applies a default limit of 500,000 rows for rendering purposes. If the query result set exceeds this limit, the visualization cannot be displayed.
  • When a visualization or query attempts to retrieve more data than can be processed or rendered efficiently, Oracle SDM Cloud Analytics displays a Too Much Data. Please add more Filters message. This prevents excessive load on the system and ensures responsiveness.
    Workarounds:
    • While generating visualizations on Raw datasets containing a large number of data points, Oracle recommends applying filters to reduce the number of datapoints.
    • Oracle recommends generating visualizations using the aggregated datasets (for example, hourly, daily, or weekly).

Network Function Model Support S-Cz9.2.0 Limitation

Oracle SDM Cloud is able to configure system-config, log-tls-key even when 'FIPS or R226 Entitlement' is enabled. However the SBC indicates an error when verify-config is run.

Subscription Distribution Email List

When a distribution email list is added to a Subscription, all emails in the distribution list are activated for sending emails. When any member unsubscribes, the entire distribution list is deleted.

Offline Configuration Spreadsheet Limitations

  • If you create a spreadsheets with no default value for a Data Variable (DV), Oracle SDM Cloud considers the spreadsheet "not configured". While going back and editing the DV to add a default value updates that value in the non-configured spreadsheet, it does not change the spreadsheet's configuration status.

    Workaround: Create a new spreadsheet including the DV default values or manually configure the existing spreadsheets.

  • When you edit a DV default value, the new value is not reflected in the existing configured spreadsheet automatically.

    Workaround: Edit the existing spreadsheet, updating the DV value or generate a new spreadsheet.

Ladder Diagram Transfer Limitations

The Oracle SDM Cloud currently supports the transfer of on-premises SBC configuration files and ladder diagrams of only 1Mb or less.
