21551 Ater OML Broken Alarm

Description

This alarm is generated when the OML between the GEPS/GMPS and the GTCS is disconnected.

Attribute

Alarm ID Alarm Severity Alarm Type
21551 Critical Fault

Parameters

ID Name Meaning
1 Index No.

Number of the Ater OML

2 Subrack No.

Number of the subrack where the board is located

3 Slot No.

Number of the slot where the board is located

4 Number of the E1/T1 port

Number of the E1/T1 port

5 Alarm Attribute

0=Normal, Alarms period are longer than the Transient Threshold.

1=Transient Count, The times and the period of the alarms whose periods are shorter than the Transient Threshold are summed up. If the sum result is longer than the Alarm Occurrence Period Threshold or Alarm Occurrence Times Threshold, an alarm so called Transient Count Alarm is triggered. Because Transient Count Alarm is based on accumulative result, the recovery of the alarm may occur at least one Summing Cycle later. The Summing Cycle can be query by MML "LST STATSLDWIN".

Impact on the System

When the OML on the Ater interface is disconnected, the results are as follows: The GTCS is not available for use. The configuration messages cannot be delivered to the GTCS. The GTCS status cannot be queried. The GTCS cannot be maintained. If other transmission links are normal while the OML is disconnected, the services are not affected.

System Actions

In 1+1 backup mode, when the OML is disconnected, the system automatically checks whether the disconnected link is the primary link. If the primary link is disconnected, the system automatically switches to the secondary link. If the secondary link is disconnected, the alarm is not handled.

Possible Causes

  • The boards in the GTCS on the Ater interface are reset or faulty.
  • The physical line carrying the OML on the Ater interface is faulty.
