Overview of DataGen

Introduction to DataGen and the Ofine MIB


The DataGen tool provides the user with the capabilities for performing ofine conguration
management of Motorola GSM network entities (NEs). It comprises of a collection of software
tools used to produce, edit, and update BSS databases. The database is a binary le containing
details specic to a BSS and its conguration.
DataGen is a exible tool that reduces the time and effort required to produce accurate BSS
databases. The concept is that of front ofce or back ofce data management system. The
OMC (front ofce) incorporates the live data on the GSM network entities, and the back ofce
(DataGen) incorporates the ofine data. Changes to the network can be carried out and veried
through the Ofine MIB (OLM) before deployment to the network.

Overview of DataGen
DataGen converts BSS binary database objects into a specic database format (Informix). The
Informix database contains the following information:

A representation of the information required to create a SYSGEN script for all supported
Base Station System (BSS) Releases.
Included in this information are details relating to the syntax, parameters, and their
associated range values for the Man Machine Interface (MMI) commands in the SYSGEN
script.

Conguration information for a specic BSS area. These areas are identied by
Country/Network, Name, Software Release, and Conguration Number. The Conguration
Number allows multiple versions to exist within the database.

DataGen functionality
DataGen consists of a suite of tools that operate on BSS databases (refer to Figure 1-1).

System Information: DataGen

Overview of the Ofine MIB

The following functions can be performed using these tools:

Upload BSS parameter data from an operational network (using the OMC-R).

Dene global defaults.

Modify parameters across part or all of a network.

Manage software loads.

Generate SYSGEN databases.

Generate commands for the Operations and Maintenance Centre (OMC) to apply changes.

Describe a cellular network in both physical and logical structure.

Overview of the Ofine MIB


The Ofine MIB (OLM) can create new networks, visualize, and validate networks before
deployment into a live network. It has a common User Interface with the online OMC. The OLM
front panel is accessed from the DataGen main menu (refer to Figure 1-2).
BSS binary les are used to create the network which is displayed as a tree-like representation
called the Navigation Tree. It is possible to update multiple BSS binary les simultaneously, for
example, by propagating neighbor changes from one BSS binary le to another.

The DataGen and OLM platform


DataGen and the OLM is implemented on either a Sun Netra 440 platform or the 'Flexible
Platform'. For more information about the supported platforms, refer to Supported platforms
on page 1-15. DataGen and the OLM use many of the same software tools as the OMC-R, thus
maximizing compatibility between the two systems. DataGen should be deployed on a shared
Ethernet LAN with the OMC-R to facilitate data interchange.

The DataGen and OLM platform

Chapter 1: Overview of DataGen

Hardware
DataGen and the OLM is congured to run on a standalone processor with its own disk storage,
tape drive, and DVD drive. The system uses Sun UltraSPARC processor; CPU speed and RAM
are subject to change.
Standard peripherals include a DAT tape drive, a DVD-ROM drive and monitor. The standard
system is congured for LAN Ethernet support.

Software
DataGen and OLM are built around the industry-standard INFORMIX online database engine.
This runs on top of the Solaris UNIX Operating System. The user interface uses the OSF/Motif
windowing system. DataGen software is distributed on DVD-ROM together with all third party
products.

DataGen database structure

DataGen database structure

Introduction
DataGen is a collection of software tools used to produce, edit, and update BSS databases.

BSS database
A BSS database contains many parameters which describe the conguration of the BSS
hardware and software. A BSS database can have two forms, a database script le and a
Conguration Management (CM) database object.

Database script le
A database script le is an ASCII le. The user can read from or write into the database script
le. It can be produced manually by entering the text into an ASCII le. This process is slow
and is likely to introduce errors. The le must be formatted precisely to contain the correct
number of line feeds and spaces. DataGen provides a faster, more accurate way to produce a
Database Script File.

Conguration Management (CM) database object


A CM Database Object (Binary Object) is the compiled database script le and cannot be read or
edited. The CM Database Object is produced by downloading a database script le into a BSC.
This object can then be uploaded and stored on a disk or at the OMC.

DataGen and the OMC


The code used by the BSS to convert the SYSGEN script into a binary object is ported to the
DataGen platform and generates a binary object which can be then downloaded to the OMC
(refer to Figure 1-5).
For DataGen applications which are on the same Ethernet network as an OMC, the transfer of
the new binary object is initiated from the OMC using the load_db script. It is also possible for
DataGen to access the binary objects which are stored on the OMC. This allows binary objects
which are uploaded, to be imported into DataGen using Revgen.

Introduction to loading network information


The process for loading network information into DataGen is illustrated in Figure 1-6. To load
network information and import existing input les into DataGen, perform the following steps:

Gather or create input les.

Start up DataGen.

Create a new BSS area.

Import input les into the new BSS area.

Import binary object les into the Ofine MIB.

Gathering network information


The rst task is to gather network conguration information for the network. This information
is then used to produce the input les which can be read by DataGen. The input les can be
entered directly into either of the two computer-based tools:

The DataGen Table Controller

Files conforming to the Motorola Customer Data File (MCDF) format

Both methods involve entering the information into a computer using a custom designed
software package.

The DataGen Directory Structure (DDS)


All DataGen input and output les are stored in an area called the DataGen Directory Structure
(DDS). The starting point of the DDS is the directory dg. The directories below dg are then
named according to the country and BSS area being stored.
A further (lower) directory level identies the conguration number for the BSS area. This
allows the storage of more than one set of database information for each BSS area. The next
level down contains the DataGen input and output le directories. An example of the DataGen
directory structure is shown in Figure 1-8.

CAUTION
Directories within the DataGen Directory Structure should not be created manually.
DataGen creates the directories automatically, thus ensuring that there are no syntax
errors in the directory names.

Introduction to usertool
This chapter describes the procedures to manage users and groups on the DataGen processor
using the usertool utility.

Common Desktop Environment Manager


The Common Desktop Environment (CDE) Manager provides a desktop environment which can
be customized on a per user basis. It reduces window clutter and provides a graphical front
end to the UNIX le system. It provides an industry standard desktop manager and is available
for different SUN workstations. A batch scheduler is also provided which allows the user to
schedule cron jobs from the CDE.
The OMC Admin menu available from the CDE provides a Graphical User Interface (GUI) for
performing routine system administration tasks. It provides access from the front panel of the
desktop to the different SUN administration tools that support Solaris 8.

Usertool - Overview
Usertool is a utility that is used for managing users and groups on the DataGen processor.
Usertool can be accessed either from the command line (/var/install/bin/usertool) or from
the OMC Admin menu available in the Common Desktop Environment (CDE).
Usertool can be used to perform the following management tasks:

Manage user accounts

Manage groups

Procedure list

{24380}

Introduction to user management


Usertool is a utility that enables the management of user accounts on a local system. A user
account enables a user to log on to a system and provides access to a home directory.
Usertool can be used to perform the following user management tasks:

Add a new user account

Modify a user account

Delete a user account

Copy a user account to a new user name

Before assigning the users to specic groups, ensure that the groups rst exist. Before adding
user accounts, use usertool to add any groups to which users will be assigned. Refer to DataGen
Group management using the usertool on page 2-13 for more information.

User management parameters


The following parameters are available under User Administration in Usertool:

User Name
This species the login name the operating system uses to identify an individual user. A
user name must be a unique name, composed of lowercase alphabetical characters (a-z) or
digits (0-9). The rst character of a user name must be a letter.

Full Name
This can be any text string. It is generally a short description of the login, and is used as
the eld for the user's full name.

NOTE
The users full name is displayed on the OLM GUI.

Home Directory
The home directory of the user. It defaults to /home/<username>, where <username>
is the login name, for example: /home/bloggs1.

Chapter 2: User and Group management using the usertool

User ID (UID)
This species the unique number by which the operating system can identify a user.
The maximum value is 2147483647. It is recommended that UIDs be kept below 60000
to minimize the amount of software incompatibilities. Reserved UIDs include 60001
(nobody) and 65534 (nobody4).

Group
This parameter species the primary group to which the user belongs. A group ID
number or group name can be specied. Group 110 (omc) is the default primary group
for DataGen users.

Secondary Groups
This optional parameter species one or more groups to which the user also belongs. A
group ID number or group name can be specied. If more than one group is specied,
separate them from the other group(s) with commas.

Account Locked
If the account is locked then the user will not be able to log in until the account is unlocked
by the System Administrator.

Change Password
The parameter forces the user to change the password on the next login. This occurs only
once. Having chosen a new password, the user is not prompted for password change on
subsequent logins.

Shell
This is the full path name of the programme used as the user's shell on login. It is
recommended that the C-shell (/bin/csh) is used for DataGen users.

Overview of operating DataGen

About this chapter


This chapter provides an introduction to the DataGen menu structure and a detailed view
of the operational sequences involved in running DataGen. It should be used in conjunction
with Chapter 6 MCDF tables.
The information in this chapter is aimed primarily at new users of DataGen and the routines are
set out in the order in which they would normally be performed.
The functionality of DataGen revolves around an Informix database. To create this database
from scratch would be an unnecessary waste of existing resources. Therefore, it is assumed
that the user will work with an existing database and perform a variety of DataGen functions to
generate a working database.
If the user is successful in editing or creating new information in the database, then the

Dening environment variables

Chapter 3: Operating DataGen

Dening environment variables

Overview of environment variables


Environment variables are variables that the shell or any other program can access in order
to get information unique to a specic user. Several environment variables can be created
and used by DataGen.
Certain variables can be set from the DataGen main menu by using the ADMIN - Preferences
option. Refer to Administration tasks on page 3-11 for more details.

NOTE
These standard C shell environment variables must be set up prior to running
DataGen.

HEX or decimal representation


Two environment variables can be set up to allow the users to decide at run time whether
they want HEX or DECIMAL representation.

DG_HEX_CELL_IDS determines in what format GSM cell ids are displayed.

DG_HEX_POINT_CODES determines in what format the elements opc and dpc are
displayed. The format applies to the MMI script and to MCDF.

The variables should be set to yes to display the values in HEX. This can be achieved using the
following commands in the C shell:

setenv DG_HEX_CELL_IDS yes

setenv DG_HEX_POINT_CODES yes

NOTE
These variables can also be set from the DataGen main menu using the ADMIN Preferences option. Refer to Administration tasks on page 3-11 for more details.

Version list order

Version list order


DG_VERSION_ORDER determines the ordering of the version list in both the Open and New
BSS dialogue boxes. If this variable is not set, then DataGen displays the list in ascending
order by default. To display the list in descending order, set DG_VERSION_ORDER to YES by
executing the following command in the C shell:
setenv DG_VERSION_ORDER yes

Time slot order equipage


This feature is optional and allows the user greater exibility in the allocation of time slots. If
enabled, RSL and RTF time slots are retained when modifying a binary object le, otherwise,
the default values are applied.
Retain time slot order equipage is enabled, by default. If retaining the order is not required,
then disabling this function gives a signicant performance improvement.

To enable the time slot order equipage, enter the following command in the C shell:
setenv DG_AGGREGATE_ABIS yes

To disable the time slot order equipage, enter the following command in the C shell:
setenv DG_AGGREGATE_ABIS no

NOTE
This variable can also be set from the DataGen main menu using the ADMIN Preferences option. Refer to Administration tasks on page 3-11 for more details.

Automate running of Revgen


Revgen converts a Binary Object File into an Informix format. Revgen can be invoked by
selecting the Services option from the Services menu, or by selecting the Revgen button.

To automate the functioning of Revgen from the Service menu or Revgen button, enter the
following command in the C shell:
setenv DG_AUTO_REVGEN yes

To disable the automated functioning of Revgen from the Service menu or Revgen button,
enter the following command in the C shell:

If either the le system or the Informix database reach 85% capacity, the usage script sends a
report to all open DataGen sessions on the DataGen processor. If the error message Broken Pipe
is received, then system administration should be undertaken to protect DataGen integrity.

NOTE
If the usage script is running as a cronjob, a check is performed every two hours.

Reloading the database


It is possible to reload the Informix database and retain the current areas. This procedure
deletes and then recreates the tables within the DataGen Informix database (db_dg) that store
the area data. Upon completion of the procedure, it is necessary to run Revgen again for all
areas.

Example of when to reload the database


If all the MCDF tables are not displayed in the Table Controller (for example, the table only
displays up to the Specics table), or if gcmd fails with an error relating to parameters not
found in the Informix database, then there may be a problem with the integrity of the database.

Introduction to conguring the BSS


This section provides two examples on BSS conguration:

Expansion of a basic BSS and its TS by the addition of another Basic Transceiver Site (BTS).

Daisy chaining BTSs with a TS.

For information about the Motorola Customer Data Format (MCDF) tables referenced in this
section, refer to Chapter 6 MCDF tables which comprises a complete list of all the DataGen
MCDF tables, including parameter values and ranges.

Explanation of terms
BSS area
The BSS area means both the GSM Base Station System (BSS) and the GSM Remote Transcoder
(RXCDR). These two sub systems run the same software.

BTS and BTS Site


The Motorola implementation of the GSM Base Transceiver System (BTS) differs from
the GSM specications in that a Motorola BTS can support more than one cell. The GSM
recommendations specify that a BTS will support only one cell. In this section, the terms BTS
and BTS site refer to the Motorola BTS.

Functions and MCDF table relationships


Each conguration or equip function for a BSS uses an MCDF table that is populated with
parameters which are generic or specied by the user. Table 3-2 lists these functions and their
equivalent MCDF table(s).

The system also issues a report stating that the database tables are populated.

Running the script le generator


Generating a database script can be performed from the Services window (refer to Figure 3-30)
either by clicking the MMI button or selecting the Generate Script option in the Services menu.
The database script generator uses the le data in the Service window (Country, BSS Area,
Software Version, and Conguration number) to identify the correct le. The user is
informed when the script has been successfully created.
The database script le is stored in the output le directory of DataGen.

NOTE
Each time a combined script is generated the original script is backed up with a Date
and Time stamp. For example COMBINED.BACKUP072498123425. This allows
the original script to be compared against the new script. Individual site les are
created, for example; SITE<XXX>, where XXX is replaced by the site number.

NOTE
If the Options Object le is found to be missing or corrupt, an error message as
shown in Figure 3-30 is displayed. Refer to Administration tasks on page 3-11 for

ACS (acs) - The Active Codec Set (ACS) table is used to specify the parameters for any
chg_acs_params commands.

Test Neighbor (testngbr) - The Test Neighbor table species test neighbor details that
allow the cell to add frequencies to the bcch allocation list without having that frequency
considered for a hand over.

Creating MCDF les


MCDF les can either be created, using blank templates, or regenerated, using an existing
database.

MCDF le procedures
File creation procedure
To create les in MCDF format, it is necessary to Export the les from the Informix database.

NOTE
The term Export means that the functions carried out in the Table Controller serve to
Export the les out of the Informix database, perform any editing required (or simply
view the tables), and then Insert the table back into the database.

NOTE

If a conguration area has been imported and was created using an earlier
version of DataGen, it is necessary to re-export the MCDF les owing to changes
in the DataGen 1.6.0.0 MCDF tables.

Warning messages may appear during the Export process, these can be safely
ignored as the Export continues successfully.

MCDF le procedures

Chapter 3: Operating DataGen

To create MCDF les, perform the following procedure.

Procedure 3-33 Create les in MCDF format

After the Object le has been converted to a Script le by the Revgen


process, select Table Control from the Services menu in the Services
window.

In the displayed Table Controller window, choose Select All Files from
the Select menu.

In the Table Controller window, select the Export button. A Message


window is displayed showing the progress of the Export function for each
le.

When the Message window indicates that all les are exported, click the
OK button. Each le, when correctly exported, is indicated by a check mark
in the File column.

File validation procedure


After the les are created, and/or edited using the GTE, the les must be validated and then
inserted back into the Informix database.
Validation can be carried out separately on each le or the whole le set can be validated in
one process. Validation comprises the following procedures:

A check for missing elds

A check for superuous elds

A check for illegal values

To validate all les, perform the following procedure.

Procedure 3-34 Validate all les

Open an Xterm window and enter the following command:


DGAdmin DGLog
The Validation Log window opens and displays errors and warnings about
the progress of the validation and insert process. This information is also
available by viewing the log le from the Administration menu. Refer to
Administration tasks on page 3-11 for details.

In the Table Controller window, choose Select All Files from the Select
menu.

Click the Validate button. A Message window showing the progress of the
Validate function for each le is displayed.

When the Message window indicates that all les are validated, click OK.
Each correctly validated le is indicated by a check mark in the File column.

MCDF table editing

File insertion procedure


After successful validation, the les must be inserted back into the Informix database. To insert
the les, perform the following procedure.

Procedure 3-35 Insert validated les into the Informix database

Open an Xterm window and enter the following command:


DGAdmin DGLog
The Validation Log window opens and displays errors and warnings about
the progress of the validation and insert process. This information is also
available by viewing the log le from the Administration menu. Refer to
Administration tasks on page 3-11 for details.

In the Table Controller window, choose Select All Files from the Select
menu.

Click the Insert button. A message window showing the progress of the
Insert function for each le is displayed.

When the Message window indicates that all les have been inserted,
click OK. Each correctly inserted le is indicated by a check mark in the
File column.

NOTE
As each le is validated and inserted into the database, a report
is generated, the results of which can be viewed by selecting the
le and clicking Report.
Instead of carrying out separate Validate and Insert tasks on the selected les, users can
select the les and carry out the Insert task ONLY which automatically validates the les
before insertion.
However, creating a new le or making a large number of edits to an old le increases
the likelihood of errors, particularly as many of the input les are interdependent. It is
recommended that, in such cases, separate validate and insert operations are performed.
The interdependency of the input les also means that a le can only be validated if all its
dependent les are validated and inserted or are currently selected.

MCDF table editing


After the MCDF les are created from the Informix database, they can be edited using the
Generic Table Editor (GTE). The following procedure uses a Generics table, which requires a
change to the Generics parameter ber_loss_daily, as an example of table editing.

columns in the Table Controller contain an asterisk (*).

Select the Generics le select button. A Report window displays the


message that the ber_loss_daily value was successfully updated in the
database.

File status icons

NOTE

If an invalid entry is made to the MCDF tables, a report le is generated


informing the user of an error. In certain cases, a warning icon is displayed
in the Validate column and no further editing is allowed until the error is
corrected. Some input les, however, do not display a warning icon (for example,
out of range values). It is important therefore to read the Report le every time
a parameter is edited and inserted otherwise, the error may not be apparent to
the user until the le has been through the Binary Compiler process.

If the validation log (DGLog) window is open, it is possible to monitor and


identify the problems as they occur.

Converting a database script le to a CM database object le

Converting a database script le to a CM database


object le

Overview of conversion
Conversion of a database script le to a database object le can be performed either on the
DataGen platform or in the BSS.

Producing a CM database object using SYSGEN mode


This process is normally carried out on a Test BSS which is not connected to the live network.
The Test BSS must rst be entered into SYSGEN Mode. Once this is done, the Database Script
File can be downloaded to the BSS through a TTY interface connected to the Master GPROC.
The BSC then processes the information sent to it and produces a CM Database Object from this
information. The object le has the extension .002.
The CM database object must then be uploaded to the OMC so that it is available for
downloading to the live network when it is required.

Producing a CM database object using the DataGen binary


object compiler
The Binary Object Compiler is used by DataGen to convert a script le into a CM database object.
If the software version is 1.6.0.0, then the CM database object is automatically compressed. As
a secondary function of compiling the object, the compiler also validates the database.

NOTE
As a requirement for running the binary object compiler, install the Options Object
into DataGen, during the installation phase. The object compiler reads the Options
Object to ascertain what additional functionality the network supports. Refer to
Installing the options object in Software Release Notes: DataGen (68P02900W76)
for details.
The binary object compiler is executed either from the Services menu, or by clicking the
Compile icon shown in Figure 3-49.

The Compiler does a validation check on all parameters. If any errors are detected during the
Compile process, a message is generated in the main window. The errors should be corrected
using the Table Controller. Editing of the script using the MMI Script Generate command does
not update the Informix database, as it is in an output le directory.
The Binary Object Compiler window has two data elds which display the BSS Area information and the Status of the compiler. There are two action buttons: Run Compiler and Exit.

exporting object les are:

Export multiple binary object les to the OMC

Export a single binary object le to the OMC

Export binary object les from the OLM to the OMC

NOTE
For more information about the requirements for this type of operation,
refer to DataGen-OMC Integration in Software Release Notes: DataGen
(68P02900W76).

Exporting multiple binary object les


To export multiple binary object les to the OMC, perform the following procedure.

details on how to dene a path to an export directory.

From the Service window (refer to Figure 3-23), select the Export option
from the File menu.

Click OK in the displayed message window.

At the OMC, ensure that a sub directory exists in the database


directory with the same name as the BSS Area being exported from
DataGen. If a sub directory does not exist, create one. For example:
/usr/omc/ne_data/dbroot/BSS/BSSspecic/<BSS Area Name>

Overview of DARBC and Enhanced XBL


The Dynamic Allocation of RXCDR to BSC circuits (DARBC) alters the role of the terrestrial
circuit portion of the A-interface between a BSC and RXCDR (known as Ater channels), so
that the Ater channels between the Remote Transcoder (RXCDR) and BSC are allocated as
the channels are needed, rather than statically assigning the channels to a specic Circuit
Identier Code (CIC).
The term XBL, refers to a Base Site Controller (BSC) transcoder (RXCDR) link. The new
Enhanced XBL (EXBL) feature provides robust communication between the BSC and the
RXCDR. The basis of the EXBL feature is to provide a generic messaging system between the
BSC and the RXCDR. This generic messaging system is used to suit both current operator
needs and the needs of future BSS features.
Dynamic Allocation of RXCDR-BSC Circuits (DARBC) and Enhanced XBL (EXBL) have
interdependent functionality.

Introduction to the Ofine MIB

Chapter 4: Operating the Ofine MIB

Introduction to the Ofine MIB

Overview of the Ofine MIB


A Conguration Management (CM) database object is a binary le. Until the development of
DataGen, it was possible to create a binary le only by downloading an ASCII format script le
to a BSS in SYSGEN mode.
Prior to GSR4 it was possible to modify a single BSS binary le through MCDF tables or to
modify MMI scripts, using DataGen. Currently, DataGen allows the user to modify and carry out
Radio Frequency (RF) planning on multiple BSS binary les through the Ofine MIB (OLM)
which has a graphical user interface (GUI).
Users can run only one Ofine MIB at a time. However, multiple GUIs for the same MIB may be
displayed and tasks may be carried out by several different users.
The task list orders the tasks in the sequence that they are routinely performed within the OLM.
Additional OLM features describe extra functions that are performed infrequently.

NOTE
Parameters such as circuits, channels, statistics (enabling/disabling/thresholds) and
time slot reservations can not be modied using the OLM GUI.

Task list prior to using OLM GUI


The following list describes the general procedures which should be carried out before using
the OLM GUI:

Import BSS binary les from the OMC into DataGen. Refer to the procedure DataGen
- OMC Integration in the DataGen/OLM Clean Install Guide included in the manual

Software Release Notes: DataGen (68P02900W76).

The upgrade function is carried out from the front panel DataGen window, not from the
OLM GUI. For details, refer to Upgrader in Chapter 3 Operating DataGen.

Circuits, channels, statistics (enabling/disabling/thresholds), time slot reservations must


be modied through MCDF tables or MMI scripts. The scripts are compiled to create BSS
binary object les. For details, refer to Chapter 3 Operating DataGen.

Task list for using the OLM GUI


The following lists, in sequence, the procedures that are normally performed using the OLM GUI:

Start the OLM from the DataGen front panel.

Create a network conguration.

From the Navigation Tree of the OLM, import the BSS binary les from DataGen into the
network.

NOTE
RXCDRs binary les can be added but channels cannot be modied or equipped.
Only hardware changes can be made.

Audit the network. The OLM must reect the current conguration of the BSS binary les.

Modify the BSSs through the Navigation Tree and Detail Views.

Perform CellXchange and implementing changes for multiple BSSs.

Save and verify all NEs.

Export BSS binary les to the OMC. Refer to Exporting object les to the OMC in
Chapter 3 Operating DataGen.

Delete the network conguration in the OLM.

Further information
Further information on using the OLM can be found in Online Help.

Additional OLM tasks


To carry out additional tasks such as importing binary les from tape into the OLM directory
(Realign Network), refer to Additional OLM features on page 4-56.

NOTE
These tasks are not routine functions and should be carried out only by the
administrator or creator of the Ofine MIB network.

Audit: overview

Introduction to auditing
After creating a network element from the Navigation Tree, it is necessary to populate the
network elements (NEs) with device information. This is done by selecting the network and
carrying out an Audit and Apply to OMC.

Ways to audit
An audit can be carried out as follows:

From the Navigation Tree


Current audits for the entire network can be set in progress from the Navigation Tree.
Refer to Running an audit from the Navigation Tree on page 4-35 for more
information.

Using the Admin icon on the Ofine MIB front panel


Audit puts a signicant load on the OLM in terms of processing power and memory usage.
It takes a considerable amount of time and therefore it is better to schedule the audit.
Refer to Scheduling an audit on page 4-60 for more information.

NOTE
The preferred way of using audit is on a per NE basis. Network-wide audits
are not recommended as they may cause degradation of the DataGen
machine due to resource consumption. For more information about Auditing
recommendations, refer to the manual Installation and Conguration: GSM
System Conguration (68P02901W17).

From the Navigation Tree, it is possible to create, modify, save NE devices and parameters.
The procedures to carry out these operations are documented in Installation and Conguration:
GSM System Conguration (68P02901W17).
Creating or editing circuits, channels, statistics (enabling or disabling or threshold), and time
slot reservations are not supported from the Navigation Tree.
When required, use the Ofine MIB pull-down menu to verify and save the new conguration.

NOTE
From the Navigation Tree, saving a detailed view of a device will not automatically
alter the BSS binary le. To update the BSS binary le, it is necessary to verify and
save the databases. For further information, refer to Verify and save NE database
on page 4-43 for details.

Introduction to CellXchange
CellXchange enables operators to perform the following tasks:

Export parameters from the OLM network into a tab delimited format.

Import parameters from a tab delimited format into the OLM network.

CellXchange can be carried out either in a live environment using the OMC-R CM MIB or in
an ofine environment using the OLM. Refer to the manual Installation and Conguration:
GSM System Conguration (68P02901W17) for more information on performing CellXchange
from the OLM.

Running CellXImport on the OMC-R or OLM


On the Cell X Import Watcher window, Motorola recommends the following for the BSS
deployment setting:

On the OLM, select Sequential mode.


Each BSS binary on the OLM has its own process running, so running several in parallel on
the OLM results in a lot of commands being sent out at the same time. Since all of these
commands need to be run on the same machine, applying all the BSS changes results
in a heavy loading on the OLM machine.

On the OMC-R, select Parallel mode.


On the live OMC-R the commands are sent out to each individual BSS. Therefore, the
loading on the OMC-R is not as great since each BSS is doing its own work.

Introduction to applying changes


The Navigation Tree is used to modify the network, and the information is saved in the OLM.
To apply the changes to the BSS databases (binary les) on disk, the following actions must
be performed:

Verify - Ensures that all the parameters are correct in accordance with predened BSS
rules. Once a validation is carried out it highlights any discrepancies that need corrective
action. It is possible to select individual NEs or an entire network. This option is available
under the Ofine MIB pull-down menu.

Save - Saves the BSS database le to disk and should be carried out regularly. Exiting the
OLM without saving, results in the loss of the changes effected. This option is available
under the Ofine MIB pull-down menu.

NOTE
Do not deploy a saved BSS database without rst carrying out a verify procedure.

The Verify and the Save actions for the entire network can be performed in a single step by
selecting Database Operations from the Ofine MIB pull-down menu. This option provides a
complete list of all NEs in the network to which verify and save operations can be applied.

NOTE
By default all NEs are selected. It is possible to deselect NEs from the list before
performing the Verify or Save action.

Using the autoclose function

Overview of autoclose feature


The Navigation Tree supports an autoclose feature. When this feature is turned on, expanding a
certain branch of a tree results in the automatic closing of any other branches that might be open
at that level. With the feature turned off, multiple branches of a tree at any given level is open.

Prerequisite
A Navigation Tree must be open and displayed on the user terminal before setting autoclose.
Refer to Opening and closing a Navigation Tree on page 4-28 for details.

Procedure for using autoclose


To use the autoclose function, select View Auto Close On/Off from the menu bar to toggle
the function. The default setting is Off.

NOTE
The autoclose function is a menu option. When selected, the alternate state is shown
in the menu window, that is, with Autoclose On selected. Autoclose Off is displayed

following command:
DGAdmin
This command sets the user environment for DataGen. DGAdmin sets system variables in the
current environment to allow DataGen tools to function correctly. It changes the current prompt
to indicate that the environment has been set up for use with DataGen.

User options
There is a user option to display values in either Hexadecimal or Decimal (default) format.
Prior to starting DataGen, two variables must be set to allow MMI scripts to display GSM
Cell IDs, OPCs and DPCs in Hex.

ca -source <country name>:<BSS area name>:<configuration number> [-area <new BSS
area name> [-id <new BSS area id>]] [-config <new configuration number>] [-title
<new/open Area comment>"]
See Table 5-2 for option descriptions.

Description
This utility allows a BSS area to be copied to a new conguration, or act as the basis with which
to generate a new BSS area at a given conguration. If no conguration number is specied for
the new conguration, the next available conguration number is used.

Requirements

Chapter 5: Command line tools

Requirements
Run DGAdmin before executing the copy command. Any parameters that contain spaces must
be entered between single quotes.

Output
Output from Copy Area utility is the insertion of a new BSS area conguration, or a new BSS
area in the DataGen database. The screen output informs the user of the Copy Area operation
and completion.
If the user opens the table controller screen for the new area created by the ca command,
all of the columns are blank. The File and Report columns are blank as the ca utility only
copies the database entry and not the input tables. The Validate and Insert columns are blank
because the records associated with the original database entry holding this information are
specically excluded from the copy.

Example Copy Area usage


The Copy Area utility ca works from the command line. The following command line can be
customized to perform the required copy:
ca -source UK:Area10:0

NOTE
This example does not have a title string. By default, a comment is created for the
target area:
Copied from BSS area:

<BSS Area> <Configuration No>

This copies conguration 0 of Area 10 to the next free conguration number within Area10.
To copy conguration 0 of area 10 to a new area and add the comment copy of Area 10, a
command of the following type must be used:
ca -source UK:Area10:0 -area Area11 -title copy of Area 10"

NOTE
The next free conguration number in Area 11 is used and, if Area 11 does not exist,
it is created.

System Information: DataGen

Requirements

Requirements
Run DGAdmin before executing the auto_compile command.
Any parameters that contain spaces must be entered between single quotes.

Output
Output from the auto_compile utility is a batch logle. This shows each operation of the batch
process and any relevant report le created along with its path. The result of each compile,
successful or not, appears in the logle.
Once the batch process is complete the nal message in the log le states:
BATCH COMPLETED
The batch le resides in the directory of the original binaries.

Example auto_compile usage


The auto_compile utility works from the command line. The following command line can be
customized to perform the required batch compile:
auto_compile -C Austria -v 1.8.0.0 ~/scr_objs/1800x/*
This compiles all existing MMI scripts in the specied directory using the corresponding 1800
compiler. On successful completion, the report les and binaries reside in the chosen batch
directory.

Running cron jobs


A cronjob can be set up to schedule the running of auto_revgen or auto_compile or auto
_upgrade batch jobs. If cronjobs are set up, then the specic path for the DGAdmin executable
and the auto_revgen or auto_upgrade or auto_compile scripts must be entered along with
the les to be run through the batch process.
For example, when setting up a crontab le, 'cron', containing an auto_revgen cronjob to be
run at 10.20 a.m. every day, the cron le should contain the following:
20 10 * * * /usr/omc/DataGen/bin/DGAdmin
/usr/omc/DataGen/current/bin/auto_revgen -m -d -C
Austria -v 1.8.0.0 -c 0 /usr/omc/test/1800x/objects/*

NOTE
The complete path for DGAdmin, batch process, and the location of the binary les
must be entered.

See Table 5-9 for options description.

Description
The CM Database Object does not contain all of the information needed to create a complete
DataGen record. The information missing is the name of the country, the BSS, and the names of
the sites. This information can be supplied in one of three ways:

The database where a previous conguration version of the BSS exists.

A conguration le.

The command line.

The command line options indicate the preferred method. If the CM Database Object contains
a site that is not named by any of these sources, it will be given a default name Site <N>,
where N is the site number.

Command line options


An explanation of the command line options is given in Table 5-9.

Command line options (revgen command) (Continued)


Description

Option
-a <BSS area name>
-s <Sites String>

-i <area id>

The BSS name for the original objects.


The -s option takes a further parameter and identies the
site names for the sites in the BSS. The names parameter is
a single option and must be placed in quotes. It consists of
the site number immediately followed by an equal sign (=)
and then the name of the site. The quotes prevent the names
parameter being split and information being lost. For example:
0=B06, 1=Hereford, 2=Upper Dunton
Dene a BSS area ID.

-c <cong number>

The -c option takes a further parameter and identies the


conguration version in which to insert the new DataGen
BSS record. If this option is not used, the revgen process
will pick out the next available conguration in the indicated
BSS records.

-r <reference cong
number>

The -r option takes a further parameter and identies the


reference conguration number. This number identies a
similar BSS which the revgen utility uses to look up in the
unscheduled site names.

-B <cong le>

The -B option takes a further parameter and identies a


conguration le to use to identify the BSS and the site
names. The structure of the conguration le is as follows.
Line
Line
Line
Line

1 - The Country name.


2 - The BSS name (and optionally BSS ID).
3 - The conguration number (may be blank).
4 onwards - Site numbers and names.

For example, a le with the contents:


UK
B06,6
0=B06
1=Hereford
2=Upper Dunton
would create a BSS record choosing the rst available
conguration number in country UK and BSS name B06
with ID of 6. Set site 0 up with name B06, site 1 as
Hereford and site 2 as Upper Dunton.
-v <BSS Version Number>

-n

The -v option takes a further parameter and identies the


conguration version number of the DataGen BSS record
for the reference conguration. This record will be used to
resolve any site numbers left unnamed by the -B or -s option.
If the reference contains the same site numbers with the
names that are required in the new record, then this is all that
needs to be supplied.
No SYSGEN generated.

Example

Example
The following is an example of how to use the revgen command:
revgen -d Area10.002 -C Austria -a Area10 -c 0 -v 1.7.4.0
This example creates a conguration number 0 for the CM Database Area10.002. The
conguration number (-c) is optional. If no conguration number is dened, the next available
number is used.

NOTE
If the DDS directory does not exist for the conguration, the command will fail.
Therefore before running the revgen command, type:
mkdir -p /home/<user_name>/dg/<country>/<BSS_area_name>/
<configuration_number>/002

Requirements
Run DGAdmin before executing the revgen command.
The DataGen database must be loaded with the GSM software versions, and any intermediate
software version requested by the upgrader to perform the Revgen.

Output
The output from this command is in the form of a set of GSM MMI command les, which
can be found in the relevant DDS command directory. The set of GSM MMI command les
are combined to produce one script (COMBINED) for the current DataGen BSS record. The
command status is mailed to the user upon completion.

Requirements

Requirements
Run DGAdmin before executing the auto-revgen command.
Any parameters that contain spaces must be entered between single quotes.

Output
Output from the auto_revgen utility is a batch logle. This shows each operation of the batch
process and any relevant report le created along with its path. Any part of the batch process
which fails, will be reported along with an explanation. For example, when an attempted Revgen
is carried out on a non binary le.
Once the batch process is complete the nal message in the batch le states:
BATCH COMPLETED
The batch le resides in the directory of the original binaries.

Example
The auto_revgen utility works from the command line. The following command line can be
customized to perform the required batch Revgen:
auto_revgen -C Austria -v 1.8.0.0 ~/option_object/1800x/*
This Revgens all existing binaries in the specied directory to the corresponding 1760 areas
in the database. If the BSS areas already exist in the database, then the next available
conguration, for each new area is used.
auto_revgen -m -d -C Austria -c 25 -v 1.8.0.0 ~/option_object/1800x/*
This command Revgens all existing binaries. After each Revgen process, the MCDF tables
are exported for the new area. The area is copied to the next available conguration and the
MCDF tables for the copied area are exported. The process attempts to Revgen rst and then
assigns the conguration number 25. If the number is already in use, the next available number
greater than 25 will be selected.

Country administration

Chapter 5: Command line tools

Country administration

Introduction to country administration


The following describes how the DataGen user can create new Country and Network les in the
DataGen database using the Country Administration (CADM) feature. The various functions of
the CADM feature which enables the user to manipulate the les are:

Administration les are created and edited using the Generic Table Editor (GTE). The GTE
is also used to save the les to a specied name or to a supplied standard le name.

Default Country and Network administration les can be edited using the GTE. The GTE is
also used to save the les to a specied name or to a supplied standard le name.

Generate or update operations can be performed on the default Country and Network
administration les.

The CADM feature prompts the DataGen user to decide whether or not to notify the owners
and modiers of BSS area congurations about Countries and Networks that cannot be
deleted. Notication is by email.

Command Line Interface (CLI)


A Command Line Interface (CLI), enables the DataGen user to generate and update Country and
Network administration les in the DataGen database using CADM utilities.

Invoking xcadm
To invoke the Country Administration tool, execute the following procedure.

Overview of MCDF tables

Scope of MCDF tables


This specication gives in detail, the format of each of the les within the MCDF le set for use
in BSS versions 1.6.5.0 and beyond.
Its aim is to provide a clear, understandable description and format for the customer, the
developer, and any other audience which needs information about its scope.
This chapter denes the layout and format of each of the les within the MCDF le set.

NOTE
Refer to the appropriate DataGen manual Software Release Notes: DataGen
(68P02900W76) for Customer Committed Problem Resolutions to the software
release installed.

Ranges, default values, and dependencies


Due to MCDF supporting BSS versions 1.7.4.0, 1.7.6.0, and 1.8.0.0, it is important that
users adhere to all the ranges dened in the subsequent tables. Remember that ranges and
recommended values may change from one load to the next. Refer to the manual Technical
Description: BSS Command Reference (68P02901W23) for detailed information about the
parameters in the MCDF tables.

Viewing the MCDF tables


If accessing DataGen using Exceed and viewing the MCDF tables on a at screen monitor, users
should maximize Exceed to avoid possible DataGen GUI truncation.

Specics table

Specics table

Description of Specics table


The Specics table (Table 6-21) allows the user to specify specic values for chg_element
and add_cell elements for a particular site or cell overriding the parameters specied in the
Generics, Timers, and Statistics tables.

NOTE

Elements that can exist in the Cell table are not shown in the Specics table.

Some elements exist here but do not exist in the Generics, Timers, or Statistics
table because of restrictions such as the following elements that have no specic
default value, or elements that are specic to particular site/cell congurations,
for example, elements only supported at Horizonofce.

Some elements that exist within the Generics, Timers, or Statistics tables do not
exist here because they are only required for site 0 (BSC). Therefore, there may
only be one instance of the element.

Default lename: spec.mcd
