1. This measurement shows a histogram of Gx session lifetimes, providing information to assist in predicting the duration of a session SBR Database Reconfiguration.
   Histogram measurements consist of 101 array entries:

   • 0 – Overflow. Incremented if duration is greater than 9,830 minutes.
   • 1-5 – 1 minute buckets. Incremented for durations between 0 and 5 minutes.
   • 6-10 – 5 minute buckets. Incremented for durations between 0 and 30 minutes.
   • 11-15 – 10 minute buckets. Incremented for durations between 30 and 80 minutes.
   • 16-20 – 30 minute buckets. Incremented for durations between 80 and 230 minutes.
   • 21-100 – 120 minute buckets. Incremented for durations between 230 and 9,830 minutes.

   A session SBR Database Reconfiguration cannot complete normally until all session records for all supported Diameter interfaces have migrated. As a result, the session duration histogram for each interface being used must be examined to determine which interface has the highest average session duration. This value can be used to predict the likely duration of the reconfiguration.
