The SolutionPack supports some metrics that are not part of the installation. This sample procedure shows you the steps to follow when adding these new metrics to the Stream collector.

This sample procedure adds new metrics to the counter names VS.AttCellUpdt.RLFail, VS.FailCellUpdt.RLFail.NoReply and VS.SuccCellUpdt.RLFail, which are in counter group ID 67109382 . These metrics are listed in the SolutionPack for Huawei iManager M2000 Counter Prerequisites spreadsheet.

Procedure

  1. Back up the original collector and parser files. For example: huawei-collecting-name.xml to huawei-collecting-name.xml.bak and huawei-parsing.xml to huawei-parsing.xml.bak.
  2. Search for the counter name VSAttCellUpdtRLFail (without '.' ) in huawei-collecting-name.xml.
  3. If found in huawei-collecting-name.xml, uncomment the following lines: 
    <values required="false"context-key=VS.AttCellUpdt.RLFail;">
<name>VSAttCellUpdtRLFail</name>
<unit>Nb</unit>
</values>
  4. If not found in huawei-collecting-name.xml, do the following:
    1. Check the contents of the counter group ID 67109382. For example: cat pmresult_67109382_30_201302201600_201302201630.csv 
      Result Time,Granularity Period,Object Name,Reliability,"VS.AttCellUpdt.RLFail","VS.FailCellUpdt.RLFail.NoReply","VS.SuccCellUpdt.RLFail"
,Minutes,,,none,none,none
2013-02-20 16:00,30,"RNC/BSC6900UCell:Label=PO230A1, CellID=32301",Reliable,0,0,0
2013-02-20 16:00,30,"RNC/BSC6900UCell:Label=PO430B2, CellID=32305",Reliable,0,0,0
2013-02-20 16:00,30,"RNC/BSC6900UCell:Label=PO430B1, CellID=32302",Reliable,0,0,0
2013-02-20 16:00,30,"RNC/BSC6900UCell:Label=PO230A2, CellID=32304",Reliable,0,0,0
    2. Match one of the above object name patterns with an object name in this table. The Stream collector extracts required performance management data from the object name. The object type is the logical grouping of the counter group IDs.

      pmresult_67109516_*.csv "RNC/DPU:SRN=0, SN=9, BT=DPUB"

      AND

      "BSC/DPU:Slot No.=11, Subrack No=0, Subsystem No.=0"

      		obj4
      pmresult_50331652_*.csv RM190/NodeB:RM190/MocID:2/Operator:-1 obj5

    3. Since the object name pattern RNC/BSC6900UCell:Label=PO230A1 matches one that is of obj1 type, search for <hardcoded-properties key="hwobjid">obj1</hardcoded-properties>
    4. Add these values to the metrics: 
      <values required="false" context-key=VS.AttCellUpdt.RLFail >
<name> VSAttCellUpdtRLFail </name>
<unit>Nb</unit>
</values>
<values required="false" context-key=VS.FailCellUpdt.RLFail.NoReply >
<name>VSFailCellUpdtRLFailNoReply</name>
<unit>Nb</unit>
</values>
<values required="false" context-key=VS.SuccCellUpdt.RLFail >
<name>VSSuccCellUpdtRLFail</name>
<unit>Nb</unit>
</values>
    5. Save huawei-collecting-name.xml.
      In this example, the performance data is formatted by the counter name. If data is formatted by the counter ID or the counter description, you must add the metric information to huawei-collecting-id.xml or huawei-collecting-desc.xml, respectively, instead of huawei-collecting-name.xml.
  5. Append this directory file-pattern to the huawei-parsing.xml file:
    <directory file-pattern="pmresult_67109379_*.csv|pmresult_67109377_*.csv|pmresult_ 67109382 *.csv" recursive="true">data/</directory>
  6. Save huawei-parsing.xml.
  7. Restart the Stream collector.
