Troubleshooting

This section lists the 

Events and Alarms

 added to support this feature.

Events and Alarms

The FS sends an alarm when:

  •

MCL changes 

  •

An individual critical factor reaches its threshold

The CA sends an Informational alarm when:

  •

It receives a congested notification 

  •

It receives an abatement notification from an FS

Informational alarms are sent at fixed 25 percent increments. A configurable parameter, 
info_alarm_step_size, is added to each factor defined in olm.cfg. Ensure the value allows sufficient 
warning. The default for info_alarm_step_size is 5, giving factor informational alarms at 5, 10, 15 
percent, etc. 

Congestion Status—Maintenance (112)

The Congestion Status alarm (major) shows MCL changes, “System MCL Level”. This is the effective 
MCL or the greater of the computed MCL and the administrative MCL. 

When a new MAINTENANCE(112) alarm appears, old MAINTENANCE(112) alarms clear. When the 
system MCL falls to 0, the “new” alarm clears.

Dampen this alarm using alarm_damping_time in olm.cfg. The value of alarm_damping_time is the 
minimum amount of time that passes before the alarm is issued after the change occurred.

For additional information, refer to the 

“MAINTENANCE (112)” section on page 7-60

.

Miscellaneous Measurements used by Overload Control

Timer

Description

ISUP_CONG_CALL_REJECTED

The congestion-rejected calls on a per trunk group basis. This 
is implemented for SGA.

POTS_OC_DP_RECEIVED

The number of Detection Points (DPs) reported during 
periods of congestion. This is being pegged by the FS

H323_OC_SETUP_REJECTED

The total number of incoming H.225 Setup messages rejected 
by the BTS due to overload.

MEAS_ISA_OC_SETUP_REJECTED

The number of ISDN calls rejected due to system overload.

MEAS_MGA_OC_CALL_REJECTED

The number of MGCP calls rejected due to system overload.
