Manage Tuning Inhibition of Network Objects
By default, all network objects are admitted for tuning, but the tuning operation can beforbidden on some network objects and a reason can be described.
If the operator inhibit network objects, then they are no longer accepted for tuning and their labels appear in italic format.
A notification is sent to all the clients about the new status of the concerned network objects.
Similar to Inhibit Cell tuning in RNO.

Counters and Indicators
Introduction
Counters are retrieved from the BSS and MFS and used as building blocks in the formation of indicators.
The indicator is computed from counters, other indicators or any other available network parameter values such as radio parameters.
An indicator can be stored. For stored indicators, the storage duration can be configured.
In order to perform some actions in NPO it is necessary to install a specific license.
MUSE_QOS__LICENSE - To declare QoS data sources for a given technology MUSE_QOS_INDICATOR_CREATION_LICENSE - To create customer indicators MUSE_QOS_HISTORY_LICENSE To save historical QoS data more than one week.

Counters and Indicators
Storage
Counters values are not stored into NPO database.
Basic indicators are always stored, but only a limited number of basic indicators is supported.
Calculated indicators are not stored in the database unless they have an associated stored temporal aggregation.
Every stored indicator has an indicator group and the table name will be related to this group. In the data warehouse, each indicator group corresponds to a different table.

Consolidation
Indicator consolidation is used to normalize and optionally to aggregate QoS data inside the data warehouse.
Aggregation and normalization apply only on indicators.
It is possible to calculate multiple temporal aggregation from the same indicator at a raw level.
The scheduler launches the consolidation scripts every night. If the previous day consolidation is not finished, the system waits for the completion of the ongoing loading of files before launching the consolidation for the current day. If any files are missing, the consolidation starts anyway.
The administrator can manually launch a manual consolidation if he finds out that there is recovered data that has not been consolidated yet.

Consolidation Normalization and Aggregation
The consolidation scripts include:
Data normalization - normalized indicator tables are computed using the default normalization methods
Data aggregation - aggregated tables are computed using normalized indicators and aggregation methods.
The obtained indicator data is aggregated spatially and then temporally.
Daily aggregation is performed every day.
Weekly and Monthly aggregations are only performed on the first day of the week or of the month.

Normalization
In the telecom context the measurements can be reported with different periods, different synchronizations.
The measurements can be lost for different reasons, normal network management or incident in the process.
If we use directly those measurements it is not possible to compare the different objects and the different measurements.
To allow the comparison between different objects and different periods, it is used the normalization.

The normalization aims are:
Order the measurements
Interpolate missing data
The normalization process can be divided in different steps:
1. Retrieve the needed data
2. Order the data
3. Synchronize data to display period
4. Interpolate missing and NULL data
5. Consolidate to the requested period size

Interpolation methods (continuation):
Linear - the missing values are replaced by a linear interpolation between the previous known value and the next known value. The linear interpolation can be specific if the values before or after are not known.
Padding - all the missing periods are set to a padding value. This is zero by default, but can be configurable through the Padding parameter. NEW

Consolidation methods
Sum - This method sums all available data to get the consolidated value.
Average - This method computes the temporal average of all available data to get the consolidated value. It varies between intensive and cumulative cases (value is already depending on the collection interval).
Maximum - This method gets the maximum of all available data to get the consolidated value.
Minimum - This method gets the minimum of all available data to get the consolidated value.
The consolidation result for these 4 methods will be NULL if a NULL value is provided.

Consolidation methods (continuation)
Count - This method counts all contributing data to get the consolidated value. For instance, if PM data are collected every 15 minutes, a consolidated hour should be composed of 4 measurements, so 4 will be the consolidation result even if there is missing PM data.
Count Present This method sum the duration of each available data and compute the ratio with the display period to get the consolidated value. For instance, if PM data are collected every 15 minutes and only one quarter was collected, for a display period of one hour, 0.25 will be returned.
Count Missing - This method returns the missing data ratio as consolidated value. It is the opposite of Count Present method.

Aggregation
Indicators can be aggregated in two modes:
Temporal Aggregation
It aggregates data of one network element into one value that defines the parent in the period hierarchy. Period hierarchy = {Hour, Day, Week, Month}
Spatial Aggregation
It aggregated data of several network elements into one value that defines the parent in the network hierarchy. Example of network hierarchy = {TRX, Cell, BSC, Network}
Counters and Parameters can be aggregated as well but is not so common as on indicators.

Temporal Aggregation
Two types of temporal aggregation can be defined:
Stored Aggregation
Calculated Aggregation To avoid too much stored aggregations when it is possible to calculate it using other indicators
A Daily value is computed from hourly values based on the following temporal aggregation methods: SUM, MIN, MAX, AVG, BH.
A Weekly value is computed from daily values based on the following temporal aggregation methods: SUM, MIN, MAX, AVG, BH, nDAV
A Monthly value is computed from daily values based on the following temporal aggregation methods: SUM, MIN, MAX, AVG, BH, nDAV

Temporal Aggregation Methods
The next functions are used to compute spatial or temporal aggregated values. In the temporal case, they are used to compute Daily, Weekly and Monthly aggregated data, below daily periodicity, the normalization process is used instead.
SUM - This method sums the non-NULL present measurements.
AVG - This method computes the average value of non-NULL present measurements.
MAX - This method returns the maximum value of non-NULL present measurements.
MIN - This method returns the minimum value of non-NULL present measurements.
COUNT - This method counts the number of non-NULL present measurements.

Busy Hour Aggregations
All Busy Hour aggregations are working on plain hours (xx:00:00 to xx:59:59), sliding hours are not supported.
The Busy Hour principle consists in retrieving the hourly value of an indicator when the peak of traffic is measured during the day. The traffic peak is identified thanks to a traffic indicator called reference indicator.

Busy Hour Aggregations
Busy Hour algorithm:
1. Identify the hour of the day that corresponds the maximum hourly value for the reference indicator (1 value per day the first value in case the same value is present several times).
2. Retrieve indicator values for the identified hour.
3. Compute the calculated indicator value (if necessary).
In RNO/NPO, the reference indicator for GSM is:
RTCH_occy_total (GTCTRT)
And for GPRS is:
GPRS_useful_throughput_radio_avg (GTRPDXA)
Note: Due to the fact that NPO supports several technologies, all the GSM refnames start by G on NPO (starting since B10). So, from RNO to NPO, the operator should add a G in the beginning of the indicators refname.

Daily Average Value (DAV)
The objective of Daily Average Value computation is to get an average busy hour value for a given period (several days).
Algorithm:
1. Select the n hours that correspond to the maximum values for the hourly reference indicator (one maximum per day)
2. Retrieve the hourly indicators values at the n hours,
3. Average the n values for each indicator
4. Compute the calculated indicator from the average values (if necessary).

Spatial Aggregation
It consists in data coming from several network elements into one value for a related upper object in the topology model using one of the following spatial aggregation methods:
SUM
MIN
MAX
AVG
COUNT
Usually the related upper object is the parent one, but sometimes topology levels can bypass or a relation can be used to reach another object.
The spatial aggregation is always done on normalized indicators tables, except for daily indicators.

Reliability
The value of the reliability indicator informs the operator about loss of QoS data.
The reliability indicators detect:
Lost objects - If any object is lost, the number of the observed objects is lower than the number of the expected objects.
Lost periods - If any period is lost, the observed time is lower than the expected time.
Indicators are always displayed, even if some data is missing and the propose of reliability is to inform if the displayed value is reliable or not.
An indicator value is displayed in italic when the reliability indicator threshold associated is not green.
The reliability display has priority over sampling or thresholds display.
Note: The reliability indicator is not developed for the adjacency object.

Indicators Restrictions After B9 NPA Data Import into NPO
The following restrictions are applicable for indicators migrated from NPA to NPO:
1. Reliability Indicators
In both NPA and NPO the reliability indicators follow the group structure of the stored indicators groups.
When groups change (split/join), the old reliability indicators are no longer relevant.
The group structure is very different in NPO compared to NPA, this is why the reliability indicators are ignored during data import.
For historical data, the reliability indicators do not hold any values in NPO. Therefore operator should not check the reliability when displaying the historical data - all this data appears as unreliable.
