Description Function
Bulk Statistics Manager Periodically polls and gathers bulk statistics and transfers this
data to external management systems.
Event Log Daemon Handles event logging functions including the interface to
external syslogd servers and the internal event logs.
ORBEM Service The orbs task is also known as the ORB Element Manager
(ORBEM).
[ASR 5x00 only]
An Element Management System (EMS) requests orbs to
perform Element Management Functions on the system using
secure IIOP. ORBS then interacts with concerned Controller
Tasks to execute the function.
The response/errors from the execution are interpreted,
formulated into an EMF response, and handed off to EMS
servers.
ORBEM Notification Notifies the EMS servers of event occurrences.
Service
Registers such EMS servers and subscribes them to associated
[ASR 5x00 only]
event types.
As the events occur, the concerned Controller Task notifies
orbs (ORBEM), which then notifies the subscribing EMS
servers.
Session Trace Collection Implements the standards-based session trace functionality.
Task
Manages both CLI and signaling-based subscriber traces. It
collects messages to be traced and generates trace files as
needed. It uploads trace files to the Trace Collection Entity
as needed.
Simple Network Handles inboard SNMP operations if configured, and sends
Management Protocol SNMP notifications (traps) if enabled.
Threshold Server Handles monitoring of threshold crossing alerts, if configured.
Polls the needed statistics/variables, maintains state, and
generates log messages/SNMP notification of threshold
crossings.
