On Tivoli Netcool Performance Manager - Wireless component,
you can extract the busy hour definitions associated with a particular
technology pack from the Tivoli Netcool Performance Manager database.
You can then create a Tivoli Netcool Performance Manager common pack data model containing
a model that report authors can use to create reports by using those
busy hour definitions.
Before you begin
Ensure that you have configured the JDBC driver in WirelessModelling
tool to ensure that you can connect to the database to extract the
busy hour definitions
