1   Description

This instruction describes how to start a measurement collection job.

A measurement collection job is started to enable collection of performance data for the corresponding measurement types. This is usually done when the managed element is operational and manageable as part of the normal operations.

2   Procedure

2.1   Start Measurement Collection Job

Prerequisites

• No documents are required.
• No tools are required.
• The following conditions must apply:
  • The job name is known.

    In this instruction, the job name example is POT_15min_Job.

  • currentJobState for the job is STOPPED.
  • An Ericsson Command-Line Interface (ECLI) session in Exec mode is in progress.

Steps

1. Navigate to the PmJob managed object, for example:

   >dn ManagedElement=NODE06ST,SystemFunctions=1,Pm=1,PmJob=POT_15min_Job

2. Enter Config mode:

   (PmJob=POT_15min_Job)>configure

3. Set the PmJob state to ACTIVE:

   (config-PmJob=POT_15min_Job)>requestedJobState=ACTIVE

4. Commit the PmJob configuration:

   (config-PmJob=POT_15min_Job)>commit

5. Verify that currentJobState is changed to ACTIVE:

   (PmJob=POT_15min_Job)>show -v

   The following is an example output:

   PmJob=POT_15min_Job compressionType=[] <empty> currentJobState=ACTIVE <read-only> granularityPeriod=FIFTEEN_MIN <default> jobControl=FULL <default> <read-only> jobGroup=[] <empty> jobPriority=MEDIUM <default> jobType=MEASUREMENTJOB <default> pmJobId="POT_15min_Job" [...] requestedJobState=ACTIVE <default> MeasurementReader=POT_mr

6. Wait up to 5 minutes after the end of the granularity period.
7. Navigate to the FileGroup managed object where all performance measurement files are exposed, for example:

   (PmJob=POT_15min_Job)>dn ManagedElement=NODE06ST,SystemFunctions=1,FileM=1,LogicalFs=1,FileGroup=PerformanceManagementReportFiles

8. Verify that the FileGroup managed object corresponding to the created performance measurement report file exists:

   (FileGroup=PerformanceManagementReportFiles)>show -v

   The following is an example output:

   FileGroup=PerformanceManagementReportFiles internalHousekeeping=false files="A20141124.1045+0100-1100+0100_NODE06ST.xml" fileName="A20141124.1045+0100-1100+0200_NODE06ST.xml" fileType="xml" modificationTime="2014-11-24T01:26:00" size=1388 [...]

   Note:  

   This output means that file A20141124.1045+0100-1100+0100_NODE06ST.xml exists in the file system. The + sign is rendered as ?? by the ECLI.

   The file can contain additional performance measurement data corresponding to other jobs with the same granularity period.
