How do I retrieve accounting files?

Purpose

Use this procedure to locate accounting files in the NSP UI.

To prevent excessive disc consumption, a file purge policy in the NSP is recommended; see “How do I configure file purge policies?” in the NSP System Administrator Guide.

Kafka

To retrieve accounting files based on Kafka notifications, monitor the accounting-file-ready topic. See the following sample notification:

{

    "data":

    {

        "ietf-restconf:notification":

        {

            "eventTime": "2024-02-22T07:08:50Z",

            "telemetry:file-available":

            {

                "input-file-name": “act5566_20240112-094501.xml.gz",

                "ne-Id": "fded:fade:face:ffff::223",

                "output-file-name": “pathname/fded:fade:face:ffff::223-20240222-070850.json.gz",

                "telemetry-subscription-name": "dmmbin"

            }

        }

    }

}
