 Alarms: refer to those generated when faults occur to devices or exception occurs to
key functions, such as a board fault. Alarms can be cleared. Alarms are more severe
than events.
 Events: refer to the event occasionally generated during the equipment running. They
indicate only the status of the running equipment at a certain time point. The system
generates some events periodically to notifying you of the equipment status. They do
not need manual handling.
 The differences between an alarm and an event are described as follows:
 An alarm is a special type of event. If the U2000 raises an alarm, it indicates
that a fault occurs on the U2000 or its managed object. The fault must be
rectified in time. Otherwise, the U2000 services cannot run properly because
the fault affects the functions of theU2000 or its devices.
 An event indicates that the status of a managed object changes. The change
may not affect services of the U2000.
 For example, Central Processing Unit (CPU) busy, hard disk failure, or network cable
disconnection are alarms.
 For example, succeeded in periodic export of operation logs is a events.

Handling
 Alarm severity :
 Critical
 The device or resource may be no longer available. The fault must be
removed immediately.
 Major
 The Quality of Service (QoS) of the device or resource decreases
greatly. Proper measures must be taken to recover the service.
 Minor
 The QoS of the device or resource decreases slightly. Proper measures
must be taken or further observation need to be done to avoid more
severe faults.
 Warning
 The QoS of the device or resource may be affected. Proper measures
must be taken.

Handling
 After right click on the NE icon and select “current alarm”or “alarm logs”, to query
the alarm result.

 The RF unit automatically resets after being disconnected from the BBU for 10
minutes. If this alarm is not cleared after three consecutive resets, the RF unit
automatically resets through power-off.

 VSWR: Voltage Standing Wave Ratio. The VSWR at the antenna port is calculated
based on the sampled forward power and reverse power.
 System Action
 When the detected VSWR exceeds the minor alarm threshold, the system does
not handle the alarm. The alarm is automatically cleared when the detected
VSWR becomes less than the alarm threshold.
 When the detected VSWR exceeds the major alarm threshold, the system
determines whether to switch off the TX channel of the RF unit based on the
actual configurations. When the VSWR alarm post-processing switch is set to
ON, the TX channel of the RF unit is switched off and the alarm cannot be
automatically cleared. When the VSWR alarm post-processing switch is set to
OFF, the power of the RF unit is automatically decreased (by 3 dB by default.
The specific value depends on service status.) to avoid hardware damage.
Once the detected VSWR becomes less than the alarm threshold, the alarm is
automatically cleared.

 Preprocessing of recording alarm information
Procedure Items to Be Confirmed

On the U2000, record the following alarm information to

 Time".
recorded.
 Query the VSWR threshold of the RRU by the command of LST RRU to check
whether the VSWR alarm threshold is appropriately set based on the
configuration plan.
 If not, set the VSWR threshold of the RRU by the MML command MOD RRU.
 2. reset the RF unit remotely by the MML command RST BRDPWROFF
 3. contact and assist onsite engineer
 obtain the inventory information of the board related to the alarm, and
provide it to on-site engineers

Handling
 2. Check and correct the blocked SCTP link
 Run the MML command LST SCTPLNK, or LST SCTPLNK6 to query the
configuration at the local end of the SCTP link.
 Based on the values of [Block Flag], determine whether the SCTP link is
blocked. If yes, unblock the SCTP link.
 3. Check the bearer network
 Ask the bearer network administrator to check whether configurations such as
routing on the bearer network are correct and whether ping packets are
rejected. Ask the network administrator to rectify the configurations if they are
incorrect.
 4. Check the Ethernet cable connections
 Ask the bearer network administrator to check whether the Ethernet cable
connections for the bearer network equipment are consistent with the data
configuration. If not, ask the network administrator to rectify the connections.
 5. Check the peer device
 Request the maintenance engineers at the peer end to check whether the peer
device is faulty, for example, whether the peer device is incorrectly configured.
If yes, troubleshoot the peer device. If no, continue handling this alarm.
 6. Collect information
 Collect log information of the faulty board as well as the MPT board (if the
faulty board isn’t MPT board)
 Run the MML command ULD FILE to use the one-click method to collect log
information.

 Description
 The cell status is related to physical resources such as baseband resources, RF
resources, CPRI resources, and transmission resources, and also license
resources. When the physical resources are insufficient, faulty, or blocked, a
cell becomes unavailable due to physical resource unavailability. When the
physical resources are available, a cell can also be unavailable due to license
resource insufficiency. This alarm is reported when a cell is unavailable for 90
seconds (default value) continuously. This alarm is cleared when the cell
becomes available again and stays available for 15 seconds (default value). The
cell unavailable duration and cell available duration for reporting and clearing
this alarm, respectively, can be set by running the SET ALMFILTER command.
 System Actions
 If the transmit/receive channel of the RRU is faulty, the cell is reestablished
with resource derating.
 If the physical link between the RF unit serving the cell and the upper-level RF
unit or BBU is faulty and the RRUs are in hot redundancy mode, the system
switches to the standby link.
 If the baseband processing unit carrying services is faulty, the system attempts
to reestablish the cell on another baseband processing unit.
 If the system does not work properly, the system attempts to identify the fault.

 Tips:
 For upload or upload & expansion operations, eNodeBs that have been loaded
with commercial licenses and those have not can be treated in the same way.
They can apply and download commissioning licenses in eRAN3.0 that do not
require bound ESN at the license sites to perform upload or upload &
expansion. These operations do not impact services.
