Error 409 is a HTTP status code that indicates that the request was not completed due to a conflict with the current state of the resource. This means that the resource that you are trying to modify or create is in an inconsistent state, and the operation you are attempting to perform cannot be completed. In the context of Oracle Communications Session Border Controller (SBC) 7, this error typically indicates one of the following two issues:

  1. Attempting to create an element with a unique identifier that already exists: This could happen when you are trying to create a new configuration element, such as a SIP profile or a routing policy, with a unique identifier that is already in use by an existing element. Each configuration element in SBC 7 must have a unique identifier, and attempting to create a new element with a duplicate identifier will result in Error 409.

  2. Attempting to create a second instance of a single-instance configuration element: Some configuration elements in SBC 7 are designed to be single-instance elements, which means that there can be only one instance of that element in the configuration. For example, the system-wide configuration element is a single-instance element. Attempting to create a second instance of a single-instance element will result in Error 409.

Option B, "The configuration element you are creating is corrupted," and option D, "There is an internal server error," are not likely causes of Error 409. If the configuration element is corrupted or there is an internal server error, you are more likely to receive a different error code, such as Error 500. Option C, "The element you are trying to save does not exist," is also unlikely to cause Error 409, as this error code typically indicates a conflict with an existing resource, rather than a missing resource.

In summary, the two options that explain Error 409 in Oracle SBC 7 are:

  • Attempting to create an element with a unique identifier that already exists
  • Attempting to create a second instance of a single-instance configuration element
