Solution 1933616.1 : How to Measure xDR Builder Input Rate?

Applies to:

Oracle Communications Performance Intelligence Center (PIC) Software - Version 7.1 and later
Tekelec

Goal

How to measure input for a particular builder?

Solution

General idea is to use session BuildMonitor from an IXP where related build DFP is located and make a query on it with two conditions: xDR type = Initial and DFP = name of a desired Build DFP.

Next step is to use values from column BldReceivedBytes and calculate DFP Input in Mb/s as: (BldReceivedBytes *8)/(60*1000*1000).

It will be easier to export data from session for a period of 24 hours in csv format and use tools like Excel to make needed calculations and plot a chart of DFP Input, so that to find highest load during the day.

When comparing to license sold, it is required to calculate total input of all DFPs handling certain kind of traffic during busy hour (measured using the above procedure).

For PIC10.1.0 and next releases, information can be found in CapacityManagement session (<Document 1683859.2>) by using the filter COLLECTION POINT = XBFINAL.

KPI called PIC_Usage is applied on Capacity Management session in order to track the license usage.
