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 ~ 1009
„
198000000 ~ 198065535
„
198066000 ~ 198079999
„
198087000 ~ 198089999
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.
„
Severe (level 2)
Severe alarms greatly affect the system operation or result
in severe degradation in performance of service provision.
Measures must be taken to recover or eliminate the alarms
as soon as possible.
Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION
3
ZXG10 BSS (V6.10) Base Station Subsystem Alarm Handling Manual
„
Major (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.
„
Minor (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 Classification
The BSS related alarm messages on Netnumen M31 can be
classified into the following six types:

The peer end does not export optical signals forcibly.
Influence
The link connected to the fiber circuit is broken and the service
is interrupted.
Handling Flow
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.
3. Replace the local-end optical transceiver module and check if
the alarm is eliminated.

„
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 interfaces OMC1 and OMC2 are 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 OMC1 and OMC2 on both ends again and
check if the alarm is eliminated.
3. Replace the cables for OMC1 and OMC2 and check if the
alarm is eliminated.
4. Use crossover cables for OMC1 and straight cables for OMC1
and OMC2 and check if the alarm is eliminated.
Remarks
For CIB shelf, the network interfaces OMC1 and OMC2 need to
be checked. For other OMP shelves, only OMC2 network
interfaces need to be checked.

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

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 TSNB 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.
