Automated response system deactivation during large scale issues and managing wireless network operations

摘要

A method of suspending automated corrective actions by a monitoring application is disclosed. The method comprises a monitoring application executing on a monitoring server a count of errors that lead to alarms experienced by each of a plurality of enhanced node Bs (eNBs) from a network management system (NMS), wherein the NMS records the count of errors experienced by the eNBs result in alarms. The method comprises the monitoring application determining that a pre-defined number of the plurality of eNBs have each exceeded a pre-defined threshold for alarms. The method comprises the monitoring application suspending automated corrective actions on the plurality of eNBs. The method comprises the monitoring application, responsive to suspending automated corrective actions, initiating corrective actions that are associated with the error experienced by the plurality of eNBs.

1. A monitoring server, comprising:
a processor, a memory, an application stored in the memory, that when executed by the processor,
receives a count of errors that lead to alarms experienced by each of a plurality of enhanced node Bs (eNBs) from a network management system (NMS), wherein the NMS records the count of errors experienced by the eNBs that result in alarms,determines that at least one of the plurality of eNBs has exceeded a pre-defined threshold for alarms during a pre-defined period of time,determines a type of the alarm(s) experienced by the at least one eNB,responsive to determining that the at least one eNB has exceeded the predefined threshold for alarms and determining the type of alarm(s) experienced by the at least one eNB, resets at least one component of the eNB,responsive to determining that the at least one eNB has exceeded the predefined threshold for alarms and determining the type of alarm(s) experienced by the at least one eNB, determines that the at least one eNB has had corrective actions performed on it that exceed a pre-defined threshold for corrective actions performed during a pre-defined period of time, wherein the corrective actions taken are the same corrective actions, andresponsive to determining that the at least one eNB has exceeded the pre-defined threshold for corrective actions performed during the pre-defined period of time, suspending further corrective actions for the at least one eNB that has exceeded the pre-defined threshold for corrective actions taken during the pre-defined period of time.
