The default “system_mode” value is “simplex”, as far as I know, so I think the only way it would get set to duplex is if that was set in the localhost.yml used. I would double check the file on your system and the ansible.log to ensure you don’t have it set twice, maybe, or inadvertently used the wrong localhost.yml file.

Please double-check your localhost.yml that you haven’t set “system_mode: duplex”. I don’t think you should see this error message on simplex.

Please do “system show”

Your error is referring to the management interface, but you’ve included your oam interface config for reference.
