Module 4: GeneralPerformance Event Handling(GPEH)

Module Objectives
Upon completion of this module, the student will be able to:
Explain what is contained in GPEH recordings
Describe how GPEH files are collected and stored
Explain what Node-internal events are collected
Explain what inter-Node events are collected

General Performance Event Handling ROP Files

One 15 minute ROP file for each MP

RBS RNC
GPEH GPEH

GPEH ROP File Structure
Header : Administrative information about the file.
Recording : Scope of the recording.
Protocol: The name and version of the protocol from which messages can be recorded.
Body : The body contains event records. The event record contains details about inter-node events and RNC-
internal events. It is only the sub file that has a body record.
Link : A link from the main file to a GPEH sub-file on another MP.
Footer : Administrative information about the time of normal termination of the ROP file.
Error : Contains the time and cause of an abnormal termination of are cording. The error record replaces the
footer record if the file is terminated abnormally.
