Troubleshooting data storage

OAM test result storage

For OAM test reporting, the OAM test results must be stored in the auxiliary database, which requires that the oam-test-results parameter is enabled in the samauxdb section of each NFM-P main server configuration. See the NSP Installation and Upgrade Guide for information about using the samconfig utility to modify the NFM-P configuration.

Statistics retention policy

Verify that the statistics retention policy is appropriate; data is unavailable for reporting if statistics are removed prematurely.

Auxiliary database log locations

Logs for each NE can be found in the following directory on an auxiliary database station:

/opt/nsp/nfmp/auxdb/catalog/samdb/member_ID_catalog/vertica.log

where member_ID is the ID of the auxiliary database station, for example, v_samdb_node0002

The following log file contains basic auxiliary database status information:

/opt/nsp/nfmp/auxdb/install/proxy/log/EmsAuxDbProxy.log

Assurance event logging

If an auxiliary database is present, assurance events are recorded in the following auxiliary database table:

samdb.assurance_assuranceevent

If no auxiliary database is present, assurance events are recorded in the following main database table:

PsoAssuranceEvent obj_199a4deb
