1 Introduction
The following document contains a list of all the required information and data to be collected on Huawei UMTS infrastructures in preparation for the installation of the Mentor optimization tool. The information and data required includes the following: Network configuration (described in detail in section 3) o o o Schema Format Network Topology file (MML) Network Preferences
Huawei logs and stats (described in detail in section 4) o o CHR logs PMs
When preparing to set up Mentor in a network, it is usually recommended to start by creating the network configuration, followed by a sample data collection. Section 2 outlines a setup checklist, which should be used as a first step to facilitate efficient installation and configuration. The following sections of this document provide a more in-depth description of the required data sources, and the manner in which they can be obtained.

1. In the LMT tool, execute the command ADD SUBTSK in the Command Input field. 2. Enter the information in the relevant fields. Note that fields in red are mandatory, and must be filled in. a. In the Command String field, enter EXP INNERCFGMML to execute the MML script. b. Choose the start date c. Choose the time mode - DAILY_T (day_based_scheduling) d. Choose the execute time the time when the MML script is generated. 3. You can also run a command through a batch file: ADD SUBTSK: ID=1, TSKN="INNERMML", SUBID=1, ENF=ENABLED, SCMD="EXP INNERCFGMML", FREQ=DAILY_T, SD=2009&02&19, RFT=1; 3.1.1.1.2 Us in g th e LMT To o l to Gen e ra te On e -Tim e MML S c rip ts

Enter the path in which to store the MML file in the Export file path field. If you do not enter a value, the default value is used: BAM/Version/FTP 3. Enter a name for the exported file in the Export file name field. The following name should be used: INNERCFGMML-20090212120000.txt

3.1.2
Antenna and Sectors Physical Location, Profiles, and Parameters in Delimited Format
The physical parameters of the network, such as the sector and antenna location, and the antenna profiles, might not be available through the configuration dump. Most of the required physical configuration of the network can be derived from network planning tools or from customer-self-maintained databases with the most updated network configuration. Mentor defines a set of textual files that should be available. These files are: Antenna file - includes the physical configuration of each sector. See section 3.1.2.1 below for the file format. Antenna profiles antenna-pattern data files Mentor also requires an updated Terrain file
In contrast to planning tools or other configuration sources, Mentor requires only active sectorcarriers. Sectors that are inactive during an analyzed period should be marked as inactive in the antenna files. All soft parameters may be defined in this file, but will be overridden by the Network Topology files. It is recommended that the latest Network Topology files be used to update the Schema Format file and to identify any inconsistencies, such as missing or unnecessary sectors.
The antenna file must include all sectors selected for optimization and all sectors in the guard-zone area where optimization is not performed. It is recommended that all sectors within two tiers of the selected sectors be included.

From Huawei R10, the CHRs are generated automatically and stored under the BAM in the following path: - /BAM/VersionA/LoadData/FamLofFmt
4.1.2
Before running a model, check that the CHRs field is enabled in the INNER MML file. 1. Check table SET CHRRNCCTRL: 2. Check if all fields are enabled (set to 1), for example: a. STATETYPE=ABNORMAL_ONLY-1&NORMAL_ONLY-1 meaning that the CHRs log abnormal and normal calls

The Counter files are generated through the Hauwei OSS per RNC. The PMs files, per RNC, are located in: /export/home/omc/var/fileint/pm/ File format: pmresult_<Counter number>_<Period>_<YYYYMMDDHHMM_YYYYMMDDHHMM>.csv For example, pmresult_67109395_30_200902010000_200902010030.csv
