OSS monitoring tool

Summary

-
OSS Self Monitoring provides the operator with an efficient way t
o monitor
basic hardware and Operation System metrics for OSS-
RC and ENIQ servers.
-
When the value of monitored metrics passes a configurable thre
shold, an

alert is generated in the monitoring tool and an alarm event
can optionally be sent to OSS-RC Fault Management.
Provides:
monitoring for OSS-RC and ENIQ servers from a single portal.
alerts the user to potential problems, such as filesystems filling u
p, before the problem happens.
flexibility on a range of metrics which can be monitored.
advanced alerting functionality
near real time and historical view of server performance metrics

Add Remove Network Element
(ARNE)(1)

Add Remove Network Element
(ARNE)(2)
>ARNE is used to configure the Operations Support System, Radio and Core (OSS-
RC) topology model.
>ARNE is used to add, modify and delete Network Objects from the topology model in
OSS-RC.
>ARNE provides two mechanisms to configure the network topology:
- ARNE Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs) ARNE GUIs are more suitable for making
small changes to the network topology.
- Import/Export files Import/Export files are useful for making large changes to the
network topology and for backing up and restoring the network topology.

Software Management
Organizer(SMO)(1)

SMO(2)
>SMO provides the following functions for the operator:
Automatic License Deployment (ALD) from Ericsson.
Automatic Software Deployment from Ericsson.
Backup administration, including the transfer of backups to
OSS for supported network elements.
Distribution of licence keys to CPP and AXE network
elements.
License key inventory for CPP and AXE network elements.

Cabinet Viewer(1)
Cabinet Viewer(2)
The Cabinet Viewer provides the user with a tool to
easily pinpoint a hardware fault in the RBS causing
traffic disturbance. When the user receives an
indication that the service in the radio network is
degraded, the Cabinet Viewer can be launched to
quickly and easily identify the problem.
From the Cabinet Viewer the user can:
Restart the RBS or a selectable object
Lock or unlock a selectable object
Run a Hardware test on a selectable object
Refresh RBS information
Save details (about a faulty selectable object in a file)
Save logs
Cabinet Viewer(3)

Node Status Analyser (1)

Node Status Analyser (2)
The NSA is used to:
Identify a problem with an RBS
Obtain data on cause of RBS service degration
Obtain RBS and RNC related status information
(including Iub link and RBS hardware status)
Take corrective action directly via NSA
Launch other UTRAN applications if required for
more advanced problem analysis and corrective
action
Detailed information for UTRAN cells or channels is
displayed in a window at the bottom of the GUI

PCA(Planned Configuration
Administration)(1)

PCA(Planned Configuration
Administration)(2)
OSS Common Explorer displays the valid
configuration, that is, the current active radio network
configuration. Using the PCA view, the user may also
work with planned configurations that are models of
intended changes to the valid configuration. Planned
configurations are prepared with close reference to the
active network, but the changes are not made on the
network until such time as the user decides to
implement them, that is, to activate the planned
configuration.
PCA(Planned Configuration
Administration)(3)

Configuration order for a preconfigured, synchronized Network
Element (RNC)
Consistency Check (CC)(1)
The Consistency Check application is used to check
that Network Elements in the Radio Access Network
(RAN) have consistent data. If data is not consistent
between Network Elements problems in the network
can occur. Using the Consistency Check interface,
Network Elements can be checked for consistency.
This is done by applying checking Network Elements
configuration data using consistency 'rules'. The
results of a consistency check can be displayed in a
report.
The Consistency Check application is primarily used
in planned configurations to help ensure error-free
configurations. Consistency Check can be used in the
valid area also and is useful in troubleshooting the
valid configuration.

Consistency Check (CC)(2)

Consistency
Check(3)
At present, VNP2

feature.
Complete the following ste
ps to perform a consistenc
y check on Network
Elements:
1.Select Network Elements
from the list of available Net
work Elements.
2.Assign rules to apply to th
e consistency check.
3.Start the consistency chec
k (and name the report that
will contain the
results of the check).
It is possible to stop an exist
