IZ57366: AFTER UPGRADE OF ERIC BSS FROM BSS 07B TO BSS 09A/OSS R7.1 NEW COLLECTION DIRS ARE NOT RECOGNIZED BY WF AND COLLECTION FAILS

APAR status

• Closed as documentation error.

Error description

• The release notes give the instructions on how to configure the
  WF to accommodate the new Ericsson BSS.
  1.1 About this guide
  This guide provides new configuration instructions for Ericsson
  GSM ASN1 version r1.1.0 mediation
  package to support BSS 09A and OSS RC R7.1 upgrade.
  2.1 New Configurations
  Due to the upgrade of the BSS from current BSS 07B to BSS 09A
  and OSS RC R7.1, new collection
  directories should be added in the configurable collection
  agent, ESFTP_2, in the
  Templates.Ericsson_GSM_ASN1_Template. Refer to Appendix A, ESFTP
  Collection Agents. Since this
  is only configuration-related, there will be no new templates
  provided.
  
  Per the customer problem statement:
  Now that the BSCs are split out by node(directory) the APL code
  in the
  Analysis agent is not parsing the filename properly.  If I
  remove the
  dir name from rhe regex and add it to the source dir the files
  collects
  and processes fine
