Introduction
The aim of this manual is to describe all alarms and system information which can begenerated by the Node B. The OML:Node B (RC) provides information on handlingthese alarms via the RC.
A description of the general UTRAN maintenance concept and an example of how tosolve an alarm are provided in the Guide to Documentation.
The software attempts to provide a precise error description for each alarm containingall information for the operator and manufacturer for rapid localization, investigation andelimination of the fault. There is no relation between the number of described faults andtheir frequency of occurrence in the system.
Error ceased messages clear all alarms for a certain probable cause of one object. Ev-ery time that a diagnostic on a faulty object fails, the operator has to replace the faultymodule (specified in the Test Report) following the procedure described in the accordingmaintenance manual.
This manual is organized according to the error-IDs where each one forms a chapterwith:• Title• Failure Event Report• Error Description• Troubleshooting
TitleComposed of error-ID and error string
Failure Event ReportContains the following details:• Managed Object Class / Hardware Type• Event Type• Probable Cause• Severity
Managed Object Class / Hardware TypeThe managed object class / hardware type dentifies the managed object class of thefault or error.
In the OML:Node B (RC), an asterisk (’*’) symbol in the related field of the failure eventreport means that potentially any managed object class / hardware type can report thisalarm.
Event TypeThe event type may have these possible values:• communicationAlarm• environmentalAlarm
iThis document is prepared as a standard edition that may include descriptions not ap-plying to your system.

Probable CauseIdentifies the probable cause of the fault or error. The probable cause is taken out of apredefined set of values defined for each alarm type.
SeverityAccording to the CCITT Rec. X.733 all alarm notifications produced in switching sys-tems have to be classified concerning the severity of their impact on the NE's (NetworkElement) functionality.
The severity assigned to a specific alarm has one of the following values:• critical• major• minor• warning
Fault Escalation Strategy
Some specific problems are handled according to the Fault Escalation Strategy. TheFault Escalation Strategy consists of the following rules:• If the object raises the corresponding alarm for the first time, the alarm’s severity is
WARNING.• Upon each occurrence of this alarm, a dedicated escalation counter is incremented
and a corresponding dedicated escalation timer is (re-)started.• If the object operates normally for a specific period of time (the expiration period of
the escalation timer), i.e. if the object does not raise the same alarm again until theescalation timer expires, the escalation counter is reset.If the object raises the same alarm after expiry of the escalation timer, the alarm’sseverity will be WARNING again.
• If the object raises the same alarm a predefined number of times without having op-erated normally for the escalation counter’s expiration period or longer, i.e. if the es-calation counter crosses a predefined threshold, the severity will change fromWARNING to a predefined final alarm severity.The alarm’s final severity is then set in the Failure Event Report. The OML:Node B(RC) describes the alarm’s final severity in the failure event report of the relevantalarm.
Configuration of alarm severities
The operator can configure the severities of some alarms to either minor , major , or crit-ical , thus achieving a satisfying adaptation to actual needs. To adapt the alarm severity,the Node B’s database (DB) has to be changed. The FaultMng MOC in the Node B’sDB contains the severities parameter which is a list of all modified alarm severities.Several instances within this list can be created at the LMT. Each instance provides thefollowing operator-configurable attributes:• Error ID of the alarm to be modified• ID of the MOC related to the alarm for which the severity is to be changed• Severity

Each instance within the severities parameter is evaluated by the Node B’s software(SW). Instances with MOC IDs or error IDs incompatible to the current Node B SW loadare ignored.
To change the severity of an alarm, the following procedure has to be applied:
1. Upload the DB to the LMT.Use the TREE View window of the LMT or apply the uploadDataInitiate command tothe relevant OSU managed object.
2. Modify the DB with the help of an XML editor or using scripts.Proceed according to the OGL:Node B DB Editing Guide.The following possibilities exist at the LMT:– Adding or removing an instance to or from, respectively, the severities list.– Modifying an existing instance within the list.
3. Download the modified DB.Use the TREE View window of the LMT or apply the downloadDataInitiate commandto the relevant OSU managed object.
4. Activate the downloaded DB.Use the TREE View window or the activate nodeBDatabaseVersionType command.
For more information about DB parameters, refer to the OGL:Node B DB Description.
The severity assignment for a specific alarm is determined by the following sources,listed in descending priority:
1. Severity setting for a particular managed object class (MOC), such as ExtEquipIn orScanner.
2. Severity setting in the severities list of the Node B’s FaultMng MOI.3. Default built-in severity.
Error DescriptionConcise description of the probable cause of the error.
TroubleshootingDescribes the actions the operator must perform to attempt to solve the problem.
Collect Info for Assistance
In some cases it is necessary to get support from customer services in order to isolatethe fault. Prior to contacting the Technical Assistance Center (TAC) pay attention on thefollowing questions and tasks:• Description of malfunction.• What is the suspected origin of the error?• What are the functional and hardware states of the affected system?• What are the issues of the affected boards? Check HW and FW states.• Observed system activities?• External influences (power supply, environment)?• What has been done (customer, local service staff)?
i NOTEThe severities attribute will be considered only for alarms that represent a conditionfor which a corresponding clearance event exists. In contrast, alarms that represent onlyone single event, will always be sent with severity warning .

200506 - Node B system start-up malfunction due to soft-ware/hardware problem
Failure Event Report
Error Description
The Node B system start-up is maintained by a dedicated software subsystem (Mas-terServiceTask: MST). Any error encountered during initialization of this subsystem willgenerate this fault report. The affected Node B Core Controller is not available. Probablereasons for these conditions are problems related either to hardware (e.g.: memoryproblem, input/output malfunction) or operating system environment. This conditionleads to a recovery reset of the whole Node B.
If the fault report relates to a HW problem, troubleshooting might require detailed knowl-edge of the Node B hardware structure (memory, boot system, ...). If the fault report re-lates to a SW problem, troubleshooting might require direct access to the Node B'soperating system console.
Troubleshooting
Due to the imponderable system behavior in case of hardware problems, there is nostatement about further system operations. Contact the technical assistance center(TAC) to get support in isolating the fault. For suitable preparation save the error symp-toms as described in "Collect Info for Assistance". Log files need to be analyzed andspecific measures must be taken which are out of the operator’s scope.

200656 - Iub link broke down
Failure Event Report
Error Description
An existing ATM connection between CRNC (controlling RNC) and Node B (Iub link) isbroken because the CRNC is down, the cable has been plugged off or is broken. There-fore the Node B performs a reset.
The following subsequent alarms may also be initiated depending on the used interfacetype (E1/J1/T1, STM-1/OC-3):– 202056 - Loss Of Signal on Physical Link– 202057 - Loss Of Frame on Physical Link– 202058 - Loss Of Cell Delineation on Physical Link– 202059 - Alarm Indication Signal on Physical Link– 202060 - Remote Alarm Indication on Physical Link– 202061 - Loss of Multi Frame Alarm Indication on E1 Physical Link– 202062 - Line Alarm Indication Signal Indication on STM1 Physical Link– 202063 - Line Remote Defect Indication on STM1 Physical Link– 202064 - Path Loss of Pointer Indication on STM1 Physical Link– 202068 - Signal Label Mismatch Indication on STM1 Physical Link– 202070 - Signal Degrade Indication on STM1 Physical Link– 202071 - Excessive Bit Error Rate Indication on STM1 Physical Link– 202072 - Alarm Indication Signal on an ATM VC– 202073 - Remote Defect Indication on an ATM VC– 202074 - SSCOP Failure Indication on an ATM VC used by ALCAP or NBAP– 202075 - Alarm Indication Signal on an ATM VP– 202076 - Remote Defect Indication on an ATM VP– 202077 - ALCAP PVC Out Of Service Indication
The Iub link broke down alarm may be caused by one of the following:• A failure in the RNC. In this case alarms from the RNC are additionally active.• A failure of the link equipment or in the cable connection between Node B and link
equipment (LE). Usually the Node B is connected to the RNC or each other (Iub in-terface) via link equipment (LE) and in some rare cases by direct lines. If LE is in-volved the operation and maintenance system of this network has to be used forgetting information about the state and status of the relevant network element (NE).
• A failure within the OVPT or the IUBCON in case an E1/J1/T1 interface is used.• A failure in the CC (refer to 200994 - HW Failure). In this case, other CC initiated
alarms are additionally active.
The affected Node B is not working. All services will be interrupted. All cells will be lost.

200658 - Transmit bandwidth limit for NBAP reached
Failure Event Report
Error Description
Under conditions with high traffic, the NBAP bandwidth set at the reporting Node B’s Iubinterface may not be sufficient. If the high-traffic condition persists, the Node B will startdropping messages.
This alarm therefore indicates a general lack of bandwidth to send messages at theNode B’s Iub interface. In other words, the Node B’s transmit bandwidth for NBAP con-nections toward the RNC has reached its limit and the message buffers are exhausted.
The Node B then started overload defence actions. This may affect service quality be-cause dedicated measurement reports will be dropped and RL setup or reconfigurationattempts will be rejected.
The reporting Node B continues operation. Service quality, however, is decreased. Theincreased traffic thus requires appropriate settings for the transmit bandwidth at theNode B’s Iub interface. In other words, the Node B’s database (DB) settings have to berevised and the transmit bandwith at the Iub interface has to be increased.
Troubleshooting
Take the following measures to clear this alarm and to prevent this overload conditionin the future:
1. Revise the reporting Node B’s DB settings in such a way that the NBAP transmitbandwidth is increased.Increase both the ingress and the egress peak cell rate to an identical value, usingthe following:– ’Node B Sum’ panel or Set N2TRFDESC:[...],pkcringress = ...
command– ’Node B Sum’ panel or Set N2TRFDESC:[...],pkcregress = ...
command2. If the first action did not clear the cause for this alarm, contact the technical assis-
tance center (TAC) to get support in isolating the fault. For suitable preparation savethe error symptoms as described in "Collect Info for Assistance". Log files need tobe analyzed and specific measures must be taken which are out of the operator’sscope.

200659 - Core Controller overload protection activated
Failure Event Report
Error Description
A situation with peak load has occurred in the reporting Node B. Due to this situation,the Node B may activate an overload protection. Overload protection is a defence actionof the Node B to maintain stable operation.
In fact, the reporting Node B’s core controller (CC) CPU capacity has reached its limit.As a consequence, RL setup or reconfiguration attempts will be rejected. Service qualityis decreased.
The causes for the Node B’s high CPU load needs to be investigated.
Troubleshooting
First, investigate the causes for the high CC load.

200909 - TMA switched off, but not defective
Failure Event Report
Error Description
The TMA is switched off and the DUAMCO works in AMCO mode. This mode is indicat-ed by the TMA LED which is off. The receiver is degraded in its performance. The failureoccurs in one of the following situations:• Most likely this alarm is raised during normal Node B operation if the DIP switch 1
of the corresponding DIP switch group of the DUAMCO is set to OFF position (AM-CO mode/TMA off) by accident. The TMA is switched off, but not defective.
• In rare cases, the alarm can also be raised together with another more critical alarmlike 200908 - RX alarm High.
Troubleshooting
1. Check the power supply for the TMA at the associated DUAMCO. Furthermore, ver-ify that the TMA is connected to the DUAMCO and check if the DIP switch 1 of theDUAMCO (TMA ON/OFF) is switched ON.
2. If other critical alarms like 200908 - RX alarm High are also raised, please refer tothe corresponding alarm description.
3. A visit on site is probably necessary to switch the DUAMCO switch to the ON posi-tion. Refer to the Output Manual OML:Node B.

200910 - TMA feeder alarm
Failure Event Report
Error Description
The DUAMCO monitors the 2.176 MHz signaling carrier coming from the TMA. A break-down of this carrier initiates the TMA Feeder Alarm. The amplifier is degraded in its per-formance. The combination of OST/AVS for the addressed TMA and the related’localCellE’ managed object instance changes to disabled /failed and enabled /degrad-ed, respectively.
The TMA Feeder Alarm may be caused by:• A failure in the antenna feeder cable. In this case the 200905 - VSWR alarm Low /
200906 - VSWR alarm High and uplink/ downlink alarms may be additionally active.• A failure in the TMA.• A failure in the power supply. In this case, the 200911 - TMA DC alarm may be ad-
ditionally active.
If a RET module is installed in the current configuration, the alarm 201004 - RET com-munication error will be output as a consequence of this alarm.
For TMA recovery, a reset of the related DUAMCO is required in order to re-establishthe communication between the DUAMCO and the TMA. A reset of the TMA managedobject is not possible while this failure persists.

200925 - Input power level of PA too high
Failure Event Report
Error Description
The PA detected an input power level that would cause the PA to fail specifications re-lating to the RF output or damaging the PA. According to the following cases, the inputpower level may be eitehr analog or digital:• Case 1: This alarm occurred in an LPA, receiving its input power from a TRX card.
Thus, the analog input power level is too high.• Case 2: This alarm occurred in a CAT/RRH, receiving its input power from DRIC.
The following causes may be the root for this failure:– The digital input power level is too high for a certain period of time. In this case,
an autonomous gain correction was not possible.– Too rapid digital input signal variations could not be processed adequately.– The CAT/RRH itself produces too much power.
To avoid this the PA is switched off. As a consequence, cells or calls could potentiallybe lost. The states of all affected managed objects change accordingly.
It may be that the error reports 200924 - Input power level of LPA too high but LPA canstill hold its RF specification if LPA is concerned, or 201018 - The LRU could not processa message from CC if CAT/RRH is concerned were emitted before, being a sign of in-creasing power level input at the PA.

200987 - Hardware parameter invalid
Failure Event Report
Error Description
This alarm indicates that an unknown hardware parameter has been received. The re-porting card will be reset after it has delivered an unknown hardware parameter.
Normally, this alarm would have been caused by an incompatible hardware configura-tion, a defective database, etc.
In this case, however, the Node B software reports an invalid hardware parameter al-though neither the hardware configuration nor the Node B database are mismatched! Infact, this is an error in the software which should be reported to customers service.
Due to the reason that this is a software error rather than an incompatibility in the data-base or hardware configuration, checking or changing the Node B’s database and hard-ware configuration would not help to solve this alarm.
As a consequence of this failure, cells or calls could potentially be lost. The states of allaffected managed objects change accordingly.

Failure Event Report
Error Description
The mentioned card was unmounted without being locked before. Thunexpected loss ofan unlocked card can be caused by one of the following:• Extracting the card without setting the administrative state (AST) to locked before• Occurrance of a fatal board failure• Self-disabling of the reporting card due to an overtemperature scenario
As a consequence of this scenario, cells or calls could potentially be lost. The statesof all affected managed objects thus change accordingly.The Node B handles self-disabled cards as if a fatal board failure, such as an on-board power supply failure, has occurred. In other words, the combination ofOST/AVS changes to disabled /not installed and the LED of the self-disabled cardis off.
If this fatal board failure occurs even a CAN communication is not possible anymore.
Troubleshooting
Independent of the cause due to which this alarm occurred, repair actions must beachieved on site. Proceed according to the Output Manual OML:Node B.
Managed Object Class / Hardware Type: *Event Type: equipmentAlarmProbable Cause: EquipmentFailureSeverity: critical
i NOTEIf the reporting Node B is of type NB-441/NB-881, the self-disabling of the re-porting card may be caused by a polluted membrane filter (MEF). Therefore,if the Node B site is located in heavily air-polluted environments combinedwith special temperature conditions, a maintenance of the MEF filters in theoutdoor NB-441/NB-881 might be necessary.If the MEFs are polluted, the 201029 - MEF blocked or 201035 - MEF com-pletely blocked alarm is output. Refer to the relevant alarm’s error descriptionand follow the troubleshooting.
i NOTEIf this alarm occurs in combination with the 200914 - Fan unit failed alarm or the 200996- Critical Temperature Limit (Ht4) reached alarm, the probability is very high that the re-porting card disabled itself due to an overtemperature scenario.

201038 - Resource conflict between CP and OAM
Failure Event Report
Error Description
The CP rejected a request of the RNC, such as a radio link setup request, because thenecessary resources are currently allocated by OAM, for instance channels for orthog-onal channel noise simulator (OCNS). These resources may be channelization codes orcode trees occupied by DLLG or OCNS, issued by the staModSTx command.
The required resources have to be freed, releasing the OCNS channels, for example,before the RNC’s request can be processed.
This alarm is cleared as soon as all DLLG and OCNS channels are stopped on the af-fected cell.
Troubleshooting
To solve this problem, free the occupied resources of the reporting cell (LocalCellEMOI) by completely stopping the DLLG or OCNS channels. Use the ’NodeB Sum’ panelor apply the endModSTx command to the CHC the occupied resources are assigned to.
This will clear the alarm and free the resources allocated by OAM. RNC requests cannow be serviced again.
To avoid such collisions in the future, an adjustment of the channelization codes usedfor OCNS may be necessary.

202012 - The first bbUsageRatio Quality of Service alarmhas occurred
Failure Event Report
Error Description
The first bbUsageRatio threshold-crossing alarm was raised (used from UMR2.0 Drop 2onwards). This is a QoS alarm which was not generated by any HW or SW error.
The operator can set four thresholds of any percentage for bbUsageRatio: notifyhigh 1/2 and notify low 1/2 which raise and clear the related alarms (202012 - The firstbbUsageRatio Quality of Service alarm has occurred / 202013 - The second bbUsageR-atio Quality of Service alarm has occurred), respectively, when crossed. Furthermore,the operator can determine an alarm severity for each of the relevant QoS alarms. Allvalues are related to call-processing resources of the Node B.
If many subscribers within one UTRAN cell use their UEs at the same time, a shortageof hardware resources in this cell may occur as a consequence and this alarm will beoutput.
Troubleshooting
Re-consider the current network design. If possible, modify the configuration of the ad-jacent cells so that the same area of this cell is covered by several Node Bs. This mayhelp to solve the lack of resources without a system crash.
Furthermore, contact the technical assistance center (TAC) to get support in isolatingthe fault. For suitable preparation save the error symptoms as described in "Collect Infofor Assistance". Log files need to be analyzed and specific measures must be takenwhich are out of the operator’s scope.

Failure Event Report
Error Description
Loss of multi frame alarm (LOMF) indication has been received on an E1 physical link.This indicates that multiframe synchronization has been lost on the E1 transport inter-face between the Node B and the next device upstream. This may be due to misconfig-uration of the hardware at either end, faulty hardware at either end or problems on thetransmission medium between the two ends.
The “202061 - Loss of Multi Frame Alarm Indication on E1 Physical Link” alarm may becaused by the following:
The Node B’s E1TTP managed object’s attribute “crcOperationMode“, which indicatesthe mode of CRC operation, is set to its default value crcForced whereas the frame for-mat for the RNC is set to “0” meaning that the CRC is disabled. Therefore, the E1TTP’sOST/AVS combination changes to disabled /failed .
If the “crcOperationMode“ is set to crcAutomatic , refer to the description of the 202098- CRC4 not used by FE reported on E1TTP alarm and follow the alarm’s troubleshooting.

A SAAL failure has been received on an ATM VC used for ALCAP or NBAP signaling.This may be only a temporary failure from which the link will have recovered by itself(e.g. by automatic retransmission). Persistent reports of this kind may be due to hard-ware or software failure at either end or problems on the transmission medium betweenthe two ends.
Troubleshooting
Other error messages:
1. Is there also an equipment alarm of the Core Controller (CC) in the reporting Node Bpresent?
Using the Network Management Application:– Choose the icon “Network Management” in the Application Launcher window
(left-click).– Choose the icon “Node B” (right-click -> Navigate To Panel).– Choose the Node B in question from the list (right-click -> Navigate To Panel).– Right-click on the addressed CC on GUI to open the context sensitive menu.– Select Fault Management -> seeActiveAlarms.
Using the Alarm Monitoring Application:– Choose the icon “Alarm Monitoring” in the Application Launcher window (left-
click).– Look for an alarm of the CC in the reporting Node BIf an equipment alarm of the CC is present try to fix this fault first which probably alsoeliminates this alarm.
2. Is there an equipment alarm for the upstream NE (RNC, Node B or LE) reportedwhich is connected to the relevant port?– For RNC and Node B proceed as described above accordingly– For LE the appropriate operation and management system has to be usedIf an equipment alarm is present try to fix this fault first which probably also elimi-nates this alarm.
On site inspection:
For further investigation, a visit on site is necessary to find the cause for the problem onthe transmission medium by inspecting lines and termination equipment. Refer to theOutput Manual OML:Node B.
Detailed information about the actions mentioned above is available in “Radio Com-mander‘s Online Help” and “Radio Commander Command Manual CML”.

202506 - Node B System Clock in Holdover Mode
Failure Event Report
Error Description
The reference input for the Node B system clock is not available or not stable enoughfor synchronization. System clock oscillator is running without external synchronization(holdover mode). This may be due to incorrect configuration of the clock managementin the Node B database, or due to insufficient signal quality of the reference clocksource.
Troubleshooting
All clock signals in the Node B are derived from an internal high accuracy master clock(OC-VCXO) which is synchronized to a reference clock signal by PLL. This referenceclock can be derived from the Iub interface (E1/J1/T1 or STM-1/OC-3) or from an exter-nal source connected to the external synchronization input.
With the MO “clmng” in the nbDatabase not only the source for the reference clock canbe defined but also the priority order of up to 4 possible sources can be selected. If thereference clock is lost or is not of sufficient quality the internal clock (OC-VCXO) will stillwork within 3GPP frequency stability limit of 0,05 ppm for at least 2 days. The workingstate is “hold over mode - high accuracy”.

Refer to the Output ManualOML:Node B
2. Clock management configuration incorrectThe MO “clmng” in the nbDatabase defines the reference clock sources and theirpriority. The attributes “prio0Port” and “prio0LineType” show the interface with thehighest priority whereas “prio3Port” and “prio3LineType” are assigned to the inter-face with the lowest priority.– Upload the nbDatabase– Check for right configuration of ports and line types of MO “clmng” as well as
“stm1Port” and “lineCircuitAddress” of the transport related MOCs “stm1TP” or“e1TTP/j1TTP” respectively. Refer to the OGL:Node B DB Description
3. Reference signal quality insufficientFor further investigation, a visit on site is necessary to find the cause for the problemon the lost or degraded clock reference by inspecting lines and termination equip-ment. Refer to the Output Manual OML:Node B.

202507 - Node B System Clock in Medium Accuracy
Failure Event Report
Error Description
The accuracy of the Node B system clock is in medium accuracy range. This may bedue to insufficient signal quality of the reference clock source.
The following preceded alarm should have been reported:– 202506 - Node B System Clock in Holdover Mode
Troubleshooting
All clock signals in the Node B are derived from an internal high accuracy master clock(OC-VCXO) which is synchronized to a reference clock signal by PLL. This referenceclock can be derived from the Iub interface (E1/J1/T1 or STM-1/OC-3) or from an exter-nal source connected to the external synchronisation input.
With the MO “clmng” in the nbDatabase not only the source for the reference clock canbe defined but also the priority order of up to 4 possible sources can be selected. If thereference clock is lost or is not of sufficient quality the internal clock (OC-VCXO) will firstchange to the working state “hold over mode - high accuracy”. But if the bad synchroni-sation remains for up to 2 days the Node B will go from “hold over mode - high accuracy”to “hold over mode - medium accuracy”. In this case the frequency stability can only beguaranteed for a few days and after this period there is a possibility that the Node B willtransmit outside 0,05 ppm.
