0329 - System SCCP TPS Normal

The SCCP subsystem is operating normally, using the TVG (Group Ticket Voucher load balancing algorithm) message transport method. The TPS (Transactions Per Second) rate is below its capacity threshold, as defined by the chg-th-alm command.

Example
RLGHNCXA21W 00-02-07 11:02:30 EST  EAGLE 35.0.0
0100.0329    SCCP SYSTEM         SCCP capacity normal, card(s) abnormal

Note:

UAM 329 will only be raised only if there is at least one IS-ANR SCCP card in EAGLE.

Alarm Level: Minor.

Recovery

  1. This alarm is used in conjunction with alarm #0330 “System SCCP TPS Threshold Exceeded.” For every five minutes the Eagle is above the threshold, the ATH (Application Trouble Handler) reports the minimum, maximum and average TPS value seen during the past five minute period.
    When the TPS level drops below the threshold level for 30 seconds, the alarm stops, and alarm #0329 confirms that normal operation has resumed. (Alternatively, the user can clear this alarm by raising the threshold limit to a value greater than the maximum value, in which case, the alarm stops immediately.)
  2. To obtain details, use the rept-stat-sccp command, which displays the status of the SCCP and VSCCP cards and other services and determines the capacity threshold of the SCCP TPS rate.
    This command also identifies which DSM cards are OOS-MT. For example, enter:
    rept-stat-sccp
