Web Element Manager Fault Management
This section describes the Fault Management changes made in WEB Element Manager Releases 12.0 and 12.2.
Web Element Manager Release 12.0
The following enhancements were made to WEM Release 12.0.
Addition to fm.cfg File for Setting Alarm Info Location Field
A new section has been introduced to the fm.cfg file for setting the location field in the alarm information, as follows:
l
Display card and port numbers only for card (hardware) related alarms. Setting this configuration will show only the card and port number instead of the complete varbind object list. WEM will show this information based on the value of the starSlotNum and ifindex objects. A WEM server restart is required.
The format is <card-number/port-number>.
Possible values are:
l
l
l
l
All the WEM specific alarms have a varbind object starEmsNotifRaisedTime which carries the time when WEM generated the trap. This varbind object can be skipped in the location field. A WEM server restart is required.
Possible values are:
l
l
l
l
For alarms generated for SNMPv2 traps there are two standard SNMPv2 varbind objects (snmpTrapOid and sysUpTime). These varbind objects can be skipped in the location field.
Also, note that for card/port related alarms, the value of the UseCardPortNumber parameter will override the configuration.
A WEM server restart is required.

Web Element Manager Release 12.2
The following Fault Management changes were made in Web Element Manager Release 12.2.
New Northbound Interface IRP Table Traps
WEM supports the Northbound Interface as defined in the 3GPP standards for Telecom Management. 3GPP defines a standard interface (Interface-N) between the EMS and the NMS. It also defines Integration Reference Points (IRPs) through which various aspects of system management (FCAPS) are performed by the NMS.
For WEM Release 12.2, support for unacknowledge_Alarms and acknowledge_Alarms has been added. These appear in the Alarm Operations category in the IRP table in the Overview chapter in the Cisco Web Element Manager Installation and Administration Guide.
