     Hi Vishnu, FE_OCPUNCON is used when a buffer is added or altered by optCritPath's delete buffer tree transform.

    Hi Vishnu, Sorry for the delay. An FE_OCPUNCON instance is an instance created by an undo (or uncommit) during the delete buffer transform during optDesign. For example, optDesign deleted the buffer, but it turns out that this change was causing a timing degradation so the cell is added back in. The cell type is the same but we update the instance name.
