Operation Guide to the FMA INTERNAL

1 Overview

To improve the efficiency of UMTS fault location, the GU Delivery Department developed
the Fault Manager Assistant (FMA) for fast fault location and troubleshooting.
Currently, the FMA analyzes faults based on the following data sources:
 Configuration script of the RNC
Run the EXP CFGMML or EXP INNERCFGMML command to obtain the
configuration script.
 Original alarm file of the RNC
This is a text file or CSV file. On the BSC6900 V9R12, run the COL LOG:LOGTYPE
= HISTORY_ALARM -1; or EXP ALMLOG: FILETYPE=csv; command to obtain
the alarm log; or export the alarm information as CSV file in the alarm plane.
 UKPI file of the RNC
Run the EXP UKPI or EXP KPI command to export the UKPI file. The UKPI file
records the performance measurement on some devices in the last five minutes.
 Original performance measurement of the RNC
It indicates the normal compressed file used by the iManager M2000 or by the NASTAR.
 Operation log of the RNC
On the BSC6900 V9R12, run the COL LOG: LOGTYPE=OPT_LOG-1; command to
export the log, or download the bak operation log by FTP tool, or run the EXP LOG
command to get TXT or CSV file.

 Associating alarms with the MML script
 Quickly locating the SPU, interface board, and node where the specified alarm is
generated
The FMA can also provide trend charts of common fault alarms. Therefore, the relevant fault
rate of the specified alarm type on an SPU subsystem or port can be discovered quickly.
The current version supports parsing of user alarms (those exported by the COL LOG:
LOGTYPE=HISTORY_ALARM-1; command, or CSV file) and associate with MML
script, and supports parsing fault alarms (those exported by the COL LOG:
LOGTYPE=HISTORY_FAULT-1; command), but not associate with MML script.
The following alarm log will be supported:
 Run COL LOG to collect the user or fault alarm
 Run EXP ALMLOG to collect the CSV alarm file
 Export the CSV alarm file from the alarm plane

The FMA enables you to parse and browse performance measurement of the RNC. The FMA
can be used to parse and browse up to 200 files. Particularly, the FMA parses one file every
one second. Therefore, it takes about two or three minutes to parse 200 files.
The FMA supports association between the performance measurement and the MML script.
That is, the FMA supports the cluster function, for example, the cluster of SPU boards or
subsystems, or the cluster of interface boards or ports.
The FMA supports common KPI analysis. The FMA also supports the analysis of Top N cells,
including detailed KPIs of Top N cells.
The FMA supports fast KPI query and query of user-defined counters. The query result can be
displayed as graphs (up to 2 x2).
The time for the performance measurement displayed on the FMA is set according to the local
daylight saving time (DST). That is, the time displayed on the FMA is the start time displayed
in the performance measurement file plus the DST offset.
The FMA support the KPI of cluster of cell, and user is easy to select one or more cells, or
one NodeB to calculate the KPI.
The FMA support the filter function to check the health of network. There have more than 280

14 Comparison Between MML Scripts

14.1 Introduction
This function is applicable to the configuration scripts of all RNC versions (including V1, V2,
and V9). The FMA can be used to compare the configuration scripts of different RNC
versions. The configuration scripts, however, must be exported by the EXP CFGMML or
EXP INNERCFGMML command.
The FMA supports the following two comparison methods:
 Compare parameters. If a parameter and its values (multiple values included) are the
same in both scripts, it indicates that the parameter is consistent in both scripts.
 Compare command lines. Compare the commands (similar commands included) in both
scripts by using the Beyond Compare or similar function.
The following parameters will be ignored by FMA:
'SRN','SN','SSN','PN','PHB','DSCP','DPX','DSPN','BRDTYPE','IPADDR','MASK','NOD
EBNAME','NODEBID','REMARK','RTDESTMASK','NEXTHOP','RTDEST','DSTIP','D

16 CHR&PCHR Analysis

16.1 Introduction
The CHR&PCHR and binary log can be parsed and analyzed by FMA tool, and version is
MBSC V911, V912 and V913. FMA supports the browsing of CHR&PCHR, classification of
fault of CHR and PCHR, statistic of error code and parameter.

2019-6-20 Huawei Confidential Page 121 of 144


FMA Operation Guide INTERNAL

FMA takes less than 1s to parse one CHR or CallFault log file, and about 2~3s for PCHR log
file. Efficiency of parsing is far quicker than other tool.
The maximum of log is 1,000,000 to parse for FMA. One CHR log file has about 10,000 logs,
and FMA can import and parse about 60 CHR log files at same time. But for DEBUG log, one
file has about 200,000 logs, and then FMA can only open about 4~5 DEBUG files
simultaneously.

16.2 Operation Guide


16.2.1 Adapter
If parse the CHR&PCHR log, the adapter files should be provided for different patch version
of MBSC V911, V912 and V913. The adapter file can be gotten from product and list is
shown as below:

The five types of adapter file should be provided by product:


 WCDMA RNC CHR.xml:parameter definition for CHR&PCHR,about 300~400K
 logdb.xml:parameter value definition for CHR&PCHR, about 200~300K
 WCDMA RNC CHR.dat:point code definition for CHR, about 25~30M
 spu.err:SPU Error Code definition, about 300~400K。
 pfmid.dat:counter ID definition, about 600~700K
 asndll folder: provides the ASN DLL file to parse the RAB and other info in CHR log.
The size of folder is about 2~3M.
The name of adapter file must be same as list, if not, issue will be occurred. When get the
adapter files, the size and content of file should be checked whether it is right or not.
Under the directory (Config->CHR->RNC), new version should be created, such as
V900R011C00SPC720,, and then the adapter files must be save in this new path. When these
adapter files are used to parse firstly, the Log_x.txt files will be automatically created, and x
means the type of log.

16.2.4 Classification of Fault


Click the Fault TAB page in the left window, and classification of fault will be listed in the
fault tree.
For the classification of fault of CHR, the method is:
 If the Fault Type value is non-zero or non-empty, the log of CHR will be joined to
classify. The first content is RAB Traffic, the second is RAB Bear, the third is Fault
Type, the fourth is Fault Reason, the fifth is Interface Fault Reason, and the sixth is
CAC Fault Reason.
 If the Fault Type value is non-zero or non-empty, but the RAB Traffic or RAB Bear is
empty, the log will be classified as RRC fault.
For the classification of fault of PCHR, the method is:
 Calculate the parameter (<PARA name="bit2RabLossInd" length="2" type="4"
dll="GetTextByKeyName: abLossInd" />), if RabLossInd is not existed, and then
calculate:
<PARA name="ConnSetupAbnormInfo" type="16" tag="83" notuse="2">

<PARACHOICE>

<PARA name="ConnSetupAbnormInfo" length="1" type="0" notuse="2" />

<PARA name="Len" length="2" type="0" notuse="2" />

<PARA name="ConnSetupFailCauseChoice" length="1" type="0"


dll="GetTextByKeyName:FailCauseChoice" />

<PARA name="ConnSetupItfFailDesc" length="2" type="0"


dll="GetTextByKeyName:ItfFailDesc" />

<PARA name="ConnSetupErrorCause" length="4" type="0"


dll="GetTextByKeyRange:ErrorCause" />

</PARACHOICE>

</PARA>

If FailCauseChoice is existed, the value of FailCauseChoice will be set to Fault


Reason, and value of ItfFailDesc is set to Interface Fault Reason, and Fault Type
is set as 1, RAB Traffic and RAB Bear is set as empty. This log of PCHR is
classified as RRC fault. The value definition of Fault Type is same as that of CHR,
but the value definition of Fault Reason and Interface Fault Reason is not same
that of CHR. The value definition of Fault Reason is refer to < FailCauseChoice >
node in logdb.xml, and the value definition of Interface Fault Reason is refer to <
ItfFailDesc > node in logdb.xml.

 If the value of RabLossInd is 1 or 3, and then calculate:


<PARA name="RABAbnormInfo" type="16" tag="102" notuse="2">

<PARACHOICE>

<PARA name="RABAbnormInfo" length="1" type="0" notuse="2" />

<PARA name="Len" length="2" type="0" notuse="2" />

<PARA name="RabFailTime" length="4" type="0" />

<PARA name="RABAbnormInfo_RNCId" length="2" type="0" />

<PARA name="RABAbnormInfo_CellId" length="2" type="0" />

</PARACHOICE>

The value of RabFailCauseChoice is set to Fault Reason, and value of


RabItfFailDesc is set to Interface Fault Reason. If value of RabLossInd is 1, the
Fault Type is set 7, and if value of RabLossInd is 3, the Fault Type is set 2.
The following window is shown as classification of fault.

If click the Cell or User TAB page, the TOP10 cell or user of fault will be listed in the tree
based on the number of all type of fault. If want to get the classification of fault of any cell or
user, right-click and choose the “ADD CELLID” or “ADD UEID” menu under the fault tree
as below:

16.2.5 Statistic of Point Code


1. Statistic of point code for all log, including CHR or other log
Click the Fault RAB page in left window as below:

FMA supports the two methods:


 Statistic of point code with CPUID: the point code will be classified by CPUID
firstly, and then distribution of point code of CPUID will be statistic.
 Statistic of point code with no CPUID
The following statistic types are supported by FMA:

The Code Statistic is for all log, and the other is based on the value of Fault Type. If choose
the Code Statistic by Fault RRC, the value of Fault Type is 1, and only when the value of
Fault Type of CHR log is 1, the log will be joined into classification.
The result of statistic with CPUID is shown as below, and numerator of the percent is the
number of log for the point code, and the denominator of the percent is total number of log
for the point code under the CPUID.

The result can be saved as CSV file and filter be column function is supported by FMA.
