Hello guys,

I went ahead and purchased the "Oracle Configuration Management Pack for
Applications" for $20 along with 1-year of support for that software for $22.
With this I was able to gain access to Oracle's internal portal and ability
to file SR (service request) which is more or less a support ticket.
Problem was that I couldn't file a ticket regarding my M3000 server since I
don't have support contract (probably costs thousands?) but I filed a
ticket anyway for the software that I bought but used the title&body of the
ticket and explained my M3000 fault code situation. Well the ticket was
promptly left aside due to being an invalid request, however by this point
I had enough information to call the support center and explain things
further (you need SR # of your ticket to past automatic machine prompt to
be able to reach a person once you call). Oracle gentlemen was super
helpful and transferred the ticket to M3000/M4000/M5000 team within minutes.

I have been told that they don't provide service passwords anymore and that
there are 2 options, either dispatch a Field Engineer to solve the problem
or engage in web conference. I went with latter and I'm going to have a
conference call later today and I should be able to collaborate with him
1-on-1 and give SSH access to the XSCF from where he can do the magic. I
will provide you guys with an update. I might unbrick my M3000, but I don't
believe I will be able to help any of you, if they provided service
passwords I could have just play along and make 5 more SRs with serial
numbers of your M3000s and help you out.

Kyle.
