    Counters and Indicators

    Introduction

    Counters are retrieved from the BSS and MFS and used as building blocks in the formation of indicators.

    The indicator is computed from counters, other indicators or any other available network parameter values such as radio parameters.

    An indicator can be stored. For stored indicators, the storage duration can be configured.

    In order to perform some actions in NPO it is necessary to install a specific license.

    MUSE_QOS__LICENSE - To declare QoS data sources for a given technology MUSE_QOS_INDICATOR_CREATION_LICENSE - To create customer indicators MUSE_QOS_HISTORY_LICENSE To save historical QoS data more than one week.

    Counters and Indicators

    Storage

    Counters values are not stored into NPO database.

    Basic indicators are always stored, but only a limited number of basic indicators is supported.

    Calculated indicators are not stored in the database unless they have an associated stored temporal aggregation.

    Every stored indicator has an indicator group and the table name will be related to this group. In the data warehouse, each indicator group corresponds to a different table.

    Consolidation

    Indicator consolidation is used to normalize and optionally to aggregate QoS data inside the data warehouse.

    Aggregation and normalization apply only on indicators.

    It is possible to calculate multiple temporal aggregation from the same indicator at a raw level.

    The scheduler launches the consolidation scripts every night. If the previous day consolidation is not finished, the system waits for the completion of the ongoing loading of files before launching the consolidation for the current day. If any files are missing, the consolidation starts anyway.

    The administrator can manually launch a manual consolidation if he finds out that there is recovered data that has not been consolidated yet.

    Consolidation Normalization and Aggregation

    The consolidation scripts include:

    Data normalization - normalized indicator tables are computed using the default normalization methods

    Data aggregation - aggregated tables are computed using normalized indicators and aggregation methods.

    The obtained indicator data is aggregated spatially and then temporally.

    Daily aggregation is performed every day.

    Weekly and Monthly aggregations are only performed on the first day of the week or of the month.

    Normalization

    In the telecom context the measurements can be reported with different periods, different synchronizations.

    The measurements can be lost for different reasons, normal network management or incident in the process.

    If we use directly those measurements it is not possible to compare the different objects and the different measurements.

    To allow the comparison between different objects and different periods, it is used the normalization.

    The normalization aims are:

    Order the measurements

    Interpolate missing data

    The normalization process can be divided in different steps:

    1. Retrieve the needed data

    2. Order the data

    3. Synchronize data to display period

    4. Interpolate missing and NULL data

    Consolidation methods

    Sum - This method sums all available data to get the consolidated value.

    Average - This method computes the temporal average of all available data to get the consolidated value. It varies between intensive and cumulative cases (value is already depending on the collection interval).

    Maximum - This method gets the maximum of all available data to get the consolidated value.

    Minimum - This method gets the minimum of all available data to get the consolidated value.

    The consolidation result for these 4 methods will be NULL if a NULL value is provided.

    Count - This method counts all contributing data to get the consolidated value. For instance, if PM data are collected every 15 minutes, a consolidated hour should be composed of 4 measurements, so 4 will be the consolidation result even if there is missing PM data.

    Count Present This method sum the duration of each available data and compute the ratio with the display period to get the consolidated value. For instance, if PM data are collected every 15 minutes and only one quarter was collected, for a display period of one hour, 0.25 will be returned.

    Count Missing - This method returns the missing data ratio as consolidated value. It is the opposite of Count Present method.

    Aggregation

    Indicators can be aggregated in two modes:

    Temporal Aggregation

    It aggregates data of one network element into one value that defines the parent in the period hierarchy. Period hierarchy = {Hour, Day, Week, Month}

    Spatial Aggregation

    It aggregated data of several network elements into one value that defines the parent in the network hierarchy. Example of network hierarchy = {TRX, Cell, BSC, Network}

    Temporal Aggregation

    Two types of temporal aggregation can be defined:

    Stored Aggregation

    Calculated Aggregation To avoid too much stored aggregations when it is possible to calculate it using other indicators

    A Daily value is computed from hourly values based on the following temporal aggregation methods: SUM, MIN, MAX, AVG, BH.

    A Weekly value is computed from daily values based on the following temporal aggregation methods: SUM, MIN, MAX, AVG, BH, nDAV

    A Monthly value is computed from daily values based on the following temporal aggregation methods: SUM, MIN, MAX, AVG, BH, nDAV

    Temporal Aggregation Methods

    The next functions are used to compute spatial or temporal aggregated values. In the temporal case, they are used to compute Daily, Weekly and Monthly aggregated data, below daily periodicity, the normalization process is used instead.

    SUM - This method sums the non-NULL present measurements.

    AVG - This method computes the average value of non-NULL present measurements.

    MAX - This method returns the maximum value of non-NULL present measurements.

    MIN - This method returns the minimum value of non-NULL present measurements.

    COUNT - This method counts the number of non-NULL present measurements.

    All Busy Hour aggregations are working on plain hours (xx:00:00 to xx:59:59), sliding hours are not supported.

    The Busy Hour principle consists in retrieving the hourly value of an indicator when the peak of traffic is measured during the day. The traffic peak is identified thanks to a traffic indicator called reference indicator.

    Busy Hour Aggregations

    Busy Hour algorithm:

    1. Identify the hour of the day that corresponds the maximum hourly value for the reference indicator (1 value per day the first value in case the same value is present several times).

    2. Retrieve indicator values for the identified hour.

    3. Compute the calculated indicator value (if necessary).

    In RNO/NPO, the reference indicator for GSM is:

    RTCH_occy_total (GTCTRT)

    And for GPRS is:

    GPRS_useful_throughput_radio_avg (GTRPDXA)

    Note: Due to the fact that NPO supports several technologies, all the GSM refnames start by G on NPO (starting since B10). So, from RNO to NPO, the operator should add a G in the beginning of the indicators refname.

    Daily Average Value (DAV)

    The objective of Daily Average Value computation is to get an average busy hour value for a given period (several days).

    Algorithm:

    1. Select the n hours that correspond to the maximum values for the hourly reference indicator (one maximum per day)

    2. Retrieve the hourly indicators values at the n hours,

    3. Average the n values for each indicator

    4. Compute the calculated indicator from the average values (if necessary).

    Spatial Aggregation

    It consists in data coming from several network elements into one value for a related upper object in the topology model using one of the following spatial aggregation methods:

    SUM

    MIN

    MAX

    AVG

    COUNT

    Usually the related upper object is the parent one, but sometimes topology levels can bypass or a relation can be used to reach another object.

    The spatial aggregation is always done on normalized indicators tables, except for daily indicators.

    Consolidation Traces

    During the consolidation execution, a file is written in real time with useful information about the process, this file is called a trace.

    In NPO Server, traces regarding consolidation can be found in: /alcatel/muse/data/trace/CONSO_LOG_0.traces (Standard consolidation)

    /alcatel/muse/data/trace/admintrace__0.traces (Manual consolidation)

    /alcatel/muse/data/trace/scripttrace__0.traces (Manual consolidation)

    Trace Keywords:

    started & ended: each step of the consolidation is described by a trace like:************RBD to HDB transfer started************

    PM Purge Data

    As soon as the consolidation is completed, the data whose storage duration has expired is purged / removed from NPO data warehouse.

    This is done for performance and storage space reasons, and depends on the configured storage durations. The minimum purge granularity is the day.

    The following table provides an illustration of the default size of each partition and their storage duration:

    Reliability

    The value of the reliability indicator informs the operator about loss of QoS data.

    The reliability indicators detect:

    Lost objects - If any object is lost, the number of the observed objects is lower than the number of the expected objects.

    Lost periods - If any period is lost, the observed time is lower than the expected time.

    Indicators are always displayed, even if some data is missing and the propose of reliability is to inform if the displayed value is reliable or not.

    An indicator value is displayed in italic when the reliability indicator threshold associated is not green.

    The reliability display has priority over sampling or thresholds display.

    Note: The reliability indicator is not developed for the adjacency object.

    Threshold and Sampling

    When creating an indicator, you can associate thresholds and sampling to it.

    Thresholds are used for highlighting QoS values. This is done using colors in a

    view or report, in order to quickly see which values are critical, major, etc.

    Indicators Restrictions After B9 NPA Data Import into NPO

    The following restrictions are applicable for indicators migrated from NPA to NPO:

    1. Reliability Indicators

    In both NPA and NPO the reliability indicators follow the group structure of the stored indicators groups.

    When groups change (split/join), the old reliability indicators are no longer relevant.

    The group structure is very different in NPO compared to NPA, this is why the reliability indicators are ignored during data import.

    For historical data, the reliability indicators do not hold any values in NPO. Therefore operator should not check the reliability when displaying the historical data - all this data appears as unreliable.

    2. B8 specific indicators

    Every new release should have values from the old release.

    Indicators from older releases than the previous one will be rejected.

    NPO supports B9/B10 GSM releases, so B8 indicators are not migrated into NPO.

    3. NPA B9 MR1 specific indicators

    NPO dictionaries are aligned with B9 MR4.

    Migration from NPA B9 MR1 is possible but with some restrictions.

    Indicators removed in B9 MR4 are not imported into NPO.

    4. Provisioned or unused indicators

    Provisioned stored indicators present in the NPA database are not migrated to NPO.
