Performing prerequisite installation tasks

This SolutionPack requires that the performance management (PM) data from the SGSN nodes be locally available on the server hosting the Stream collector. You must ensure the Operations Support System-Radio and Core (OSS-RC) can push the PM data files to the server.

This procedure includes a task for sending the PM files from the OSS-RC server to the M&R server. Contact the OSS-RC administrator about where the PM files are stored and how they are processed.

Procedure

1. Verify the SFTP or FTP server is running on the M&R server where the Stream collector resides.
2. Verify that connectivity exists between the M&R server and the OSS-RC server.
3. Configure OSS-RC to push the raw PM data files on a regular time interval to this default directory on the M&R server: <install directory>/Collecting/Stream-Collector/<SP-name>/Incomingdata/
   Here is an example of the name of a raw PM file: A20140914.1145+0100-20140914.1200+0100_Meas_SS7_all_13A_LGSGSN03.145.xml.
   You can override the default directory during the SolutionPack installation.
