    Alarm Message Summary

    This chapter introduces the basic concepts of alarm messages, such as alarm code definition, alarm severity level, alarm handling suggestions, and alarm classification.

    Alarm Code Definition An alarm code is defined by a string of 32 bits, which indicates the code values of a specified alarm message.

    The range of GSM BSS alarm codes is as follows:

    1 ~ 100000

    198000000 ~ 198065535

    198066000 ~ 198079999

    198087000 ~ 198089999

    198099800 ~ 198099801

    Alarm Severity Level

    Whenever there is a problem or fault during BSC operation, an alarm message appears. Usually, the alarm may last till the problems or faults are rectified.

    According to severity, alarms are divided into four levels:

    Critical (level 1)

    Critical alarms cause the whole system to fail to operate or provide services. Measures must be taken to recover or eliminate the alarms immediately.

    Major (level 2)

    Severe alarms greatly affect the system operation or result in severe degradation in performance of service provision.

  • ZXG10 BSS (V6.20) Base Station Subsystem Alarm Handling Manual

    2 Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION

    Measures must be taken to recover or eliminate the alarms as soon as possible.

    Minor (level 3)

    Major alarms do not greatly affect normal system operation and performance of service provision. Measures should be taken to recover or eliminate the alarms in time to avoid more severe alarms.

    Warning (level 4)

    Minor alarms have potential effects on normal system operation and performance of service provision. Diagnosis and measures should be taken to avoid more severe alarms.

    In alarm level definition, the affected range only refers to the influence on a single item, that is, alarm level can be determined if a certain index, such as reliability and safety, reaches the specified range. If an alarm affects several indices, the alarm level should be upgraded.

    Note:

    Alarm levels can be modified in the Netnumen M31 EMS system based on the actual situations.

    Generally, the default settings are comparatively reasonable. Be cautious when re-defining levels. It is not allowed to modify the settings at will.

    In addition, some alarm levels are not defined. For these alarms, users can define their levels in actual situations.

    Alarm Handling Pay attention to the following points when handling alarms:

    After noting down the problem and symptom, system maintenance personnel should handle the alarms step by step by referring to the solutions described in this manual. Unless otherwise specified, end the alarm handling once the fault is rectified (that is, the alarm is recovered), or go to the next step if the problem persists.

    If the alarm fails to be handled or recovered, contact the local ZTE office.

    Alarm code: 198000002

    Alarm level: 2

    The local-end RX fiber or peer-end TX fiber is not properly connected.

    The local or peer-end optical transceiver module is faulty.

    The peer end does not export optical signals forcibly.

    The UIM has no TFS subcard or the board does not provide TDM optical interface function.

    The link connected to the fiber circuit is broken and the service is interrupted.

    1. Correctly insert the local and the peer-end fibers and check if the alarm is eliminated.

    2. Replace the fiber and check if the alarm is eliminated.

    4. Replace the peer-end optical transceiver module and check if the alarm is eliminated.

    5. Check if the peer-end device forcibly inhabits output and if the alarm is eliminated.

    UIM consists of UIMC, UIMU, and UIMT.

    Ethernet Controller's Physical Link Off

    Alarm code: 198000256

    Alarm level: 3

    The network cables are not connected to the OMC1 and OMC2 interfaces on the rear shelf.

    The network cable fails or looses.

    The network interfaces on the shelf are faulty.

    A link connected to the Ethernet is broken. The symptom is that the OMC interface is disconnected, that is, the communication between the NE and the EMS server is broken.

    1. Check if network interface OMC2 is connected with network cables and if they are loose.

    f If the cables loose, go to step 2.

    f If the cables are not loose, go to step 3.

    2. Insert cables to OMC2 on both ends again and check if the alarm is eliminated.

    3. Replace the cables for OMC2 and check if the alarm is eliminated.

    4. Use crossover cables and straight cables for OMC2 and check if the alarm is eliminated.

    Trunk Link Is Used for CSU Loopback Test

    Alarm code: 198000518

    starts. If this trunk link is not used for CSU loopback test, this alarm won't be triggered.

    The configured trunk link is congested.

    After diagnosis and test, do some settings, where end A sends the command of canceling CSU loopback to end B.

    Cell Delineation Not Synchronized

    Alarm code: 198001024

    Alarm level: 3

    The HEC is damaged. The cell cannot be located from the physical layer frame. This problem is usually triggered from bottom layer fault. It may also because the local and peer-end devices use different methods to process HEC.

    The ATM communication becomes worse.

    1. Check if other alarms are generated accompanying its occurrence. If yes, clear these alarms. If no, go to step 2.

    2. Check if both ends are configured to SDH mode or SONET mode. If the modes are different, configure a correct signal mode.

    Loss of Cell Delineation

    Alarm code: 198001025

    Alarm level: 2

    LCD is triggered after OCD lasts for 4 ms.

    The ATM communication is broken.

    1. Check if other alarms are generated accompanying its occurrence. If yes, clear these alarms. If no, go to step 2.

    2. Check if both ends are configured to SDH mode or SONET mode. If the modes are different, configure a correct signal mode.

    Check whether the clock input line is correctly connected.

    PP2S Clock Input Lose

    Alarm code: 198001282

    Alarm level: 3

    The clock input of the shelf is abnormal.

    The system communication fails.

    1. Check if the clock input lines are correctly connected.

    2. Check if the subrack of output clock locks the GPS signals.

    32M Clock lost in TSNB

    Alarm code: 198001283

    Alarm level: 3

    As the clock consists of 32M and 8K, the 32M clock alarm is generated when the clock (32M or 8K) jitters out of the specified range and affects the links.

    The clock is unavailable.

    The whole link is blocked if the alarm is generated. Therefore, the clock cannot be lost. Two boards for reporting alarms are used in a system, with one active and the other one standby. When a clock alarm is generated, the system switches over between the active and standby TSNBs.

    For Tier 1 network, clock loss means loss of the whole link data. The link is recovered only after the clock becomes normal.

    Check if the clock input lines are correctly connected.

    The local-end optical receiver is faulty.

    All the trunk receiving signals that are transmitted through the SDH/SONET line are interrupted.

    1. Use an optical power meter to check if the power for receiving optical signals is within the specified range (that is, -28 dBm ~ -8 dBm).

    f If yes, go to step 3

    f If no, it can be inferred that the optical module is faulty, and then go to step 2.

    2. Replace the optical module or board. Check if the alarm is eliminated.

    3. Use the transmitting end at the peer-end office to detect the transmitting optical signal. Check if the signal is within the specified range.

    f If yes, go to step 5.

    f If no, it can be inferred that the peer end is faulty, and then go to step 4.

    4. Ask maintenance personnel to check the peer-end office. After the fault is rectified, check if the alarm is eliminated.

    5. Something may be wrong with the transmission equipment. Ask maintenance personnel special for transmission equipment to do troubleshooting.

    Alarm code: 198001797

    Alarm level: 2

    For all the NEs in the multiplexing section where the board resides, the fiber pigtail connectors in the down direction are contaminated. The increase of transmission line attenuation or change in optical transmission mode leads to error code.
