What should I know about baseline and anomaly detector creation?

Baseline best practices

When baselines are configured, NSP creates a baseline with the parameter values for each resource selected. For example, if you want to collect baseline values for 20 ports with the same telemetry type, configure the Create Baselines parameters and NSP will create 20 baselines.

Bulk creation of baselines can take significant time and resources to complete. If the bulk creation process is interrupted by a network disruption or user action, it results in failed or partial creation.

If a baseline creation process has been interrupted by a network problem or user action (such as a page refresh), incorrect entries may exist in the database. Contact Nokia support.

Keep these suggestions in mind:

The following table shows some average time frames for bulk baseline creation.

Note: The baseline subscriptions are created last, therefore no statistics are collected for any baseline in the group until the bulk creation is completed.
