    Inventory Unit ManagementInventory Unit Management manages some boards data, which isuploaded by OMM. Normally NE uploads data to OMM, then OMMuploads data to NetNumen. In this situation some data cannot beuploaded by OMM because these data might not be received fromnetwork element. Missing data can be added or deleted in Net-NumenM31 manually for user reference. After data modification,during NetNumen data synchronization with OMM, the modifieddata, which is uploaded from OMM will be overwritten. InventoryUnit Management also checks the connection between OMM andNetNumenM31.

    Adjacent Cell RelationshipConsistency Checking

    Short Description To check adjacent cell relationships. (This feature needs the coop-eration between OMM and NetNUmen, so required OMM must beconnected with NetNumen).

    Prerequisites Ensure the following:

    The NetNumenM31 server is started, connected to the client,and the system is running normally.

    NetNumen Sever, Client and NEs are interconnected.

    Context Adjacent cell relationship checking is mainly in command mode,some of the commands are explained below:minos cmd:type= " CheakCell ", ATTRIB= " TD " & " Compare " & " RelationSingle ";minos cmd:type= " CheakCell ", ATTRIB= " TD " & " Compare " & " Attribute ";minos cmd:type= " CheakCell ", ATTRIB= " TD " & " Compare " & " All ";minos cmd:type= " CheakCell ", ATTRIB= " TD " & " Modify " & " RelationSingle ";minos cmd:type= " CheakCell ", ATTRIB= " TD " & " Modify " & " Attribute ";minos cmd:type= " CheakCell ", ATTRIB= " TD " & " Modify " & " All ";

    Commands Explanation

    Mino comd:type = CheakCell means to check adjacent rela-tionship of cell.

  • Chapter 2 Centralized Configuration Management Operations

    ATTRIB is kind of network (GSM/W/TD) to compare/modify withutrancell or along with extranal utran cell.

    RelationSingle means, check single adjacent cell relationship

    Attribute checks whether the properties of Utrancell has the samevalue with its corresponding external adjacent linked Utrancel.

    All means, check both RelationSingle and Attribute

    Compare means, get the comparison result from NetNumen andOMM

    Modify means, partner up the single adjacent cell relationship ormake the attribute of Utrancells same with this corresponding ex-ternal Utrancell or both

    Perform the following steps to check adjacent cell relationship:

    Steps 1. In command mode, connect to NetNumenM31 server port2121, as shown in Figure 55.

    FIGURE 55 CONNECTING TO SERVER

    2. Enter username and password, as shown in Figure 56.

    FIGURE 56 ENTERING USERNAME AND PASSWORD

    3. Set NE type=minos, as shown in Figure 57.

    4. Enter the MML command to get adjacent cell relationships, asshown in Figure 58.

    FIGURE 58 ENTERING MML COMMAND

    5. After executing MML command, system generates files in csvformat. User can open this file using Excel.

    END OF STEPS

    Result Adjacent cell relationship parameters are checked successfully.
