managedObjectClass

M

class

This parameter specifies the class of the new managed object instance.

managedObjectInstance

M

DN

This parameter specifies the instance of the managed object that is to be created and registered. This is a full DN according to 3GPP TS 32.300 [5].

attributeListIn

M

LIST OF SEQUENCE< attribute name, attribute value>

This parameter may have a null value. When this parameter is supplied, it contains a list of name/value pairs specifying attribute identifiers and their values to be assigned to the new managed object. These values override the values for the corresponding attributes derived from the default value set specified in the definition of the managed object’s class.

attributeListOut

M

LIST OF SEQUENCE< attribute name, attribute value>

This list of name/value pairs contains the attributes of the new managed object and the actual value assigned to each.

status

M

ENUM (OperationSucceeded, OperationFailed)

baseObjectInstance

M

DN

This parameter specifies the base object instance.

If the "scope" parameter is absent, then either only the base object or the complete subtree below and including the base object shall be selected. The default behaviour is protocol specific.

scope

M

n/a

This parameter specifies the scope. It is a structured parameter and consists of the sub-parameters "scopeType" and "scopeLevel". The scope describes which object instances are selected with respect to a base object instance. The base object instance needs to be specified using a dedicated attribute.

> scopeType

M

ENUM {

BASE_ONLY,

BASE_ALL

}

If the optional "scopeLevel" parameter is not supported or absent, allowed values of "scopeType" are "BASE_ONLY" and "BASE_ALL".

The value "BASE_ONLY" indicates only the base object is selected.

The value "BASE_ALL" indicates the base object and all of its subordinate objects (incl. the leaf objects) are selected.

This parameter is redundant and can be omitted when confirming only the protocol specific default behaviour.

ENUM {

BASE_NTH_LEVEL,

BASE_SUBTREE

}

If the "scopeLevel" parameter is supported and present, allowed values of "scopeType" are "BASE_NTH_LEVEL" and "BASE_SUBTREE".

The value "BASE_NTH_LEVEL" indicates all objects on the level, which is specified by the "scopeLevel" parameter, below the base object are selected. The base object is at "scopeLevel" zero.

The value "BASE_SUBTREE" indicates the base object and all of its subordinate objects down to and including the objects on the level, which is specified by the "scopeLevel" parameter, are selected. The base object is at "scopeLevel" zero.

> scopeLevel

O

Integer

See definition of "scopeType" parameter.

filter

O

See Comment.

This parameter defines filter criteria to be applied to the objects selected by the "baseObjectInstance", "scope" and "scopeLevel" parameters.

The actual syntax and capabilities of the filter is SS specific. However, each SS should support a filter consisting of one or several assertions that may be grouped using the logical operators AND, OR and NOT.

Each assertion is a logical expression of attribute existence, attribute value comparison ("equal to X, less than Y" etc.) and MO Class.

attributeListIn

O

LIST OF attribute name.

This parameter identifies the attributes to be returned by this operation. If the parmeter is absent or empty all attributes shall be returned.

managedObjectClass

M

ManagedEntity class

For each returned MO: The class of the MO.

managedObjectInstance

M

ManagedEntity DN

For each returned MO: The name of the MO. This is a full DN according to 3GPP TS 32.300 [5].

attributeListOut

M

LIST OF SEQUENCE< attribute name, attribute value >

For each returned MO: A list of name/value pairs for MO.

status

M

An operation may fail because of a specified or unspecified reason.

baseObjectInstance

M

DN

The MO instance that is to be used as the starting point for the selection of managed objects to which the filter (when supplied) is to be applied. This is a full DN according to 3GPP TS 32.300 [5].

modificationList

M

LIST OF SEQUENCE <attribute identifier, [attribute values], ENUM( replace, add values, remove values, set to default)>

See Comment for when attribute values are require and when they are optional.

This parameter contains a set of attribute modification specifications, each of which contains:

1). attribute identifier: the identifier of the attribute whose value(s) is (are) to be modified.

2). attribute value: the value(s) to be used in the modification of the attribute. The use of this parameter is defined by the modify operator. This parameter is optional when the set to default modify operator is specified and if supplied, shall be ignored.

3). modify operator: the way in which the attribute values(s) (if supplied) is(are) to be applied to the attribute. The possible operators are:

a) replace: the attribute value(s) specified shall be used to replace the current values(s) of the attribute;

b) add values: the attribute values(s) specified shall be added to the current value(s) of the attribute. This operator shall only be applied to a set-valued attribute and shall perform a set union (in the mathematical sense) between the current values(s) of the attribute and the attribute value(s) specified. Value(s) specified in the attribute value parameter which is(are) already in the current values of the attribute shall not cause an error to be returned.

c) remove values: the attribute value(s) specified shall be removed from the current values(s) of the attribute. This operator shall only be applied to a set-valued attribute and shall perform a set difference (in the mathematical sense) between the current value(s) of the attribute and the attribute values(s) specified. Value(s) specified in the attribute value parameter which is(are) not in the current value(s) of the attribute shall not cause an error to be returned;

d) set to default: when this operator is applied to a single-valued attribute, the value of the attribute shall be set to its default value. When this operator is applied to a set–valued attribute, the value(s) of the attribute shall be set to their default value(s) and only as many values as defined by the default shall be assigned. If there is no default value defined, an error shall be returned.

Note: Set is used here in the mathematical sense so that a set-valued attribute is an unordered set of unique values.

The modify operator is optional, and if it is not specified, the replace operator shall be assumed.

The modificationList parameter contains a single set of attribute modification specifications and this same set is applied to each MO instance to be modified.

modificationListOut

M

LIST OF SEQUENCE< ManagedEntity DN, ManagedEntity class, LIST OF SEQUENCE< attribute name, attribute value >>

This parameter will provide for each managed object instance the full DN of the managed object instance, the managedObjectClass, and a list of name/value pairs with the values of all the attributes of the modified managed object instance after modification. The form of this information is SS dependant and may be provided in one or many data structures.

status

M

ENUM (OperationSucceeded, OperationFailed, OperationPartiallySucceeded)

An operation may fail because of a specified or unspecified reason and no attributes have been updated. The operation is only successful if all specified attributes of all selected objects are actually modified. Otherwise, the operation is partially successful.

NOTE 1: If consumer receives notifications from one producer, consumer can use the notificationId and the objectInstance to uniquely identify all received notifications.

If consumer receives notifications from multiple producers and notifications of each objectInstance are reported to at most by one producer, consumer can use the notificationId and objectInstance to uniquely identify all received notifications.

If consumer receives notifications from multiple producers and notifications of one or more objectInstance(s) are reported byo two or more producers, consumer can use the notificationId together with objectInstance and the identity of producer (systemDN), to uniquely identify all received notifications. If the information systemDN is absent, consumer needs other means, which are outside the scope of this TS, to determine the identity of producer.

How notificationId of notifications are re-used to correlate notifications is outside of the scope of this specification.

M

SEQUENCE OF SET {

notificationId (M),

correlatedNotifications (O),

additionalText (O),

sourceIndicator (O),

op (M),

path (M),

value (M) ,

oldValue (O)

}

This parameter describes the reported NRM updates. It is a list of items; each item reports a single NRM update. The "notificationId" identifies an item.

The NRM update itself is described by the parameters "op", "path", "value" and "oldValue". The parameters "correlatedNotifications", "additionalText" and "sourceIndicator " provide context information.

The parameter "op" specifies the type of operation reporting the NRM update. Valid values are "add", "remove" and "replace". The operation describes what has conceptually happened to the NRM on the MnS producer. The operation applied to the NRM by the MnS producer and causing the reported NRM update can be different.

"add" shall be used for reporting the creation of an object, attribute, attribute field or multi-value attribute element.

"remove" shall be used for reporting the deletion of an object, attribute, attribute field or multi-value attribute element.

"replace" shall be used for reporting the replacement of an existing attribute value, attribute field value or multi-value attribute element.

The "path" and "objectInstance" identify the object, attribute, attribute field or multi-value attribute element, that was created, deleted or replaced.

If an object creation is reported with "add", the "value" shall carry a complete representation of the created object. If an object deletion is reported with "remove", the "value" shall be absent. It may optionally carry a complete representation of the deleted object.

If an attribute, attribute field or multi-value attribute element creation is reported with "add", the "value" shall carry the value of the created attribute, attribute field or multi-value attribute element.

If an attribute, attribute field or multi-value attribute element deletion is reported with "remove", the "value" shall be absent. It may optionally carry the old value of the deleted attribute, attribute field or multi-value attribute element.

If the replacement of an attribute, attribute field or multi-value attribute element value is reported with "replace", the "value" shall carry the new value of the attribute, attribute field or multi-value attribute element. The "oldValue" may optionally carry the old value of the attribute, attribute field or multi-value attribute element before the replacement.

If multiple objects are created, the creation of parent objects shall be reported before the creation of the child objects. Vice versa, when the deletion of multiple objects is reported, the deletion of child objects shall be reported before the deletion of the parent objects.
