Performance monitoring

Table 1. Feature History
Feature Name	Release Information	Feature Description
Performance Monitoring Enhancements	Cisco IOS XR Release 24.4.1	You can now view historical Performance Monitoring (PM) parameters for the past 1 to 7 days for the 24-hour interval on these controllers: CoherentDSP Ethernet ODU-layer This feature enhances data collection directly from the equipment, providing a comprehensive view of performance over time. Parameter added: bucket `value`

Performance monitoring (PM) parameters help service providers gather and store performance data, set thresholds, and report results. This process enables early detection of network issues.

You can configure and retrieve PM counters for various controllers in 30-second, 15-minute, or 24-hour flex-bin intervals.

These parameters simplify troubleshooting operations and enhance the data collected directly from the equipment.

Note

Downgrade to 7.11.1 or earlier releases from 24.1.1 can lead to a restart of the pm_collector process. To avoid this, clear the PM historical data before the downgrade using these commands:

process shutdown pm_collector
                run
                cd /misc/config
                rm chkpt_pm_collector_*
                exit

Use these commands if you are already experiencing a continuous pm_collector restart.

process shutdown pm_collector
                run
                cd /misc/config
                rm chkpt_pm_collector_*
                exit
                process start pm_collector

Configure the PM parameters

You can configure the performance monitoring parameters for the optics, Ethernet, odu-flex, and coherent DSP controllers.

Follow these steps to configure PM parameters:

Procedure

Run the configureshow controller controllertype R/S/I/P { pm { current | history} { 30-sec 15-min | | 24-hour } { optics | ether | fec | otn | prbs| flex-bin} linenumber command to configure the controllers.

Example:

This sample configures the performance monitoring parameters for the optics controller at 24-hour intervals.

Instantaneous Q-Margin

Scenarios on Instantaneous Q-margin

In these scenarios, the initial few PM buckets are displayed as valid although the instantaneous Q-margin values are displayed as invalid in those buckets. The PM is performed for 30 sec, 15 mins, and 24 hours, respectively.

Scenarios where this issue occurs include:

Shutdown or enable optics
Trunk rate change
Fiber cuts

To address these situations, avoid considering the initial PM bucket readings when monitoring the instantaneous Q-margin values for these scenarios.

This sample shows that, in certain scenarios, the initial PM bucket readings are invalid. Later, the PM bucket readings become valid, even when the instantaneous Q-margin value remains invalid.

Note

Performance monitoring statistics are not supported for the input unicast packets, output unicast packets, and input error fragments counters for Ethernet clients.

PM history persistence

PM history parameters for Optics, Ethernet, and coherent DSP controllers are retained even after a line card cold reload, line card warm reload, XR reload, Calvados reload, RP reload, Hw-module all reload, power cycle, or upgrade of the NCS 1014 chassis.

After a software upgrade to the latest release, you can view the history performance monitoring parameters from the previous release. The PM history persistence is supported for 30-second, 15-minute, and 24-hour bucket types.

However, this list describes the time required to fill all historical buckets for each bucket type. After the buckets are full, no errors appear when you fetch PM historical data.

For 30-second bucket type, 15 minutes is required to fill 30 historical buckets.
For 15-minute bucket type, 8 hours is required to fill 32 historical buckets.
For 24-hour bucket type, 24 hours are required to fill 7 historical bucket.

PM counters are updated continuously in the current bucket for all bucket types: flex, 30-second, 15-minute, and 24-hour. When the timer expires for a bucket type, the current PM data moves to the historical PM bucket. This process is called rollover. After rollover, the current PM data becomes available as historical PM data.

If the controller is deleted or removed, PM data remains persistent for three hours. If the controller does not return within three hours, the PM data is cleared because the controller is considered no longer in use.

Limitations of PM history persistence

If the NCS 1014 reloads during the rollover period, one of these scenarios occurs:

A complete PM bucket may be missing, and the system marks the next PM bucket as Invalid.

PM bucket expiry message appears as follows:


RP/0/RP0/CPU0:ios#show controllers hundredGigECtrlr 0/3/0/2/2 pm history 30-sec ether 29
Fri Apr  1 01:32:20.646 UTC
History data is empty, Verify at least one collection period is expired

PM bucket interval is marked as Invalid and counters are updated as zero.
PM bucket interval is marked as Invalid and counters are updated as nonzero.

Performance monitoring for NCS1K14-2.4T-X-K9 card

Service providers use performance monitoring (PM) parameters to gather performance data, store it, set thresholds, and report it. This helps with early detection of network issues.

You can configure and retrieve PM counters at intervals of 30 seconds, 15 minutes, or 24 hours. These parameters simplify troubleshooting operations and increase the amount of data that can be collected directly from the equipment.

Table 2. Feature History
Feature Name	Release Information	Feature Description
Supported Functionalities of CCMD-16-C and CCMD-16-L Line Cards	Cisco IOS XR Release 7.11.1	Supported Functionalities of CCMD-16-C and CCMD-16-L Line Cards: The software supports Variable Optical Attenuator (VoA), power monitoring and reporting of parameters to the controllers at the OCH and OMS level. It helps in configuring the amplifier parameters for optimizing signal transmissions. The software also supports in-band and out-of-band tone detection and monitoring and reporting of alarms.

Service providers use performance monitoring (PM) parameters to gather and store data, set thresholds, and report performance information for early detection of network issues.

You can configure and retrieve PM counters for the OCH and OMS controllers in 30-second, 15-minute, or 24-hour intervals, or in a flexible 10-second bin interval. These parameters simplify troubleshooting and enhance the value of data collected directly from the equipment.

Configure PM parameters for NCS1K14-CCMD-16-C and NCS1K14-CCMD-16-L cards

Use this task to configure the minimum and maximum thresholds for individual parameters.

Procedure

Step 1

Run the controller controllertype R/S/I/P pm {30-sec | 15-min | 24-hour} optics threshold { parameter-name} {max|min} {value} command to configure minimum and maximum thresholds for individual performance monitoring parameters.

Example:

This sample displays the performance monitoring parameters of the OMS controller.


RP/0/RP0/CPU0:ios#configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:(config)#controller oms 0/1/0/0 pm 30-sec optics threshold opt min < value >
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:ios(config)#commit

This sample displays the performance monitoring parameters of the OCH controller.

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:(config)#controller och 0/1/0/1 pm 30-sec optics threshold opt min < value >
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:ios(config)#commit

Step 2

Run the controller controllertype R/S/I/P pm {30-sec | 15-min | 24-hour} optics report { parameter-name} {min-tca|max-tca} command to enable reporting of threshold crossing alarms for individual parameters.

Step 3

Run the commit command to save the changes.
