Monitoring BTS Resources

This describes how to monitor the resource usage of the TRX and of the main control board on the LMT.

The type and status of resources are shown in Table 1.

**Table 1** Parameters of BTS resources
Resource Name	Description
CPU usage	CPU usage of the TRX and of the main control board of a BTS.
RAM usage	Memory usage of the main control board of a BTS.
Mother-tier voltage	DC outputs of rectifying unit. When the voltage is too high, the power monitoring module reports an alarm about the over-high voltage to the BSC through the main control board.
Temperature inside the cabinet	Line obtained based on the real-time monitor of the temperature inside the cabinet.
Humidity inside the cabinet	Line obtained based on the real-time monitor of the humidity inside the cabinet.
Current of storage batteries	Line obtained based on the real-time monitor of the batteries current.
Temperature of storage batteries	Line obtained based on the real-time monitor of the batteries temperature.
Load current	Line obtained based on the real-time monitor of the internal current of the BTS.
View AC voltage	Line obtained based on the real-time monitor of the AC voltage provided for the BTS.
Quantity of state	Charging and discharging status of the BTS batteries. This attribute is realized by the power monitoring module.
Board temperature	Line obtained based on the real-time monitor of the board temperature of the BTS.

The procedures for monitoring different resources are similar. This topic takes monitoring the CPU usage as an example.

Through GUI
1. Choose BTS Maintenance > Maintain Site > Monitor BTS Resource. A dialog box is displayed, as shown in Figure 1.

Through MML
1. Run the DSP BTSRES command on the LMT to query the BTS resources.
