Method for recording log data

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for recording log data, which comprises the following steps: A, predetermining the lengths of measurement periods and starting one measurement period; B, monitoring accumulated flow of the log data in real time in the current measurement period; C, judging whether the accumulated flow of the log data in the current measurement period is greater than a predetermined throttle flow threshold, if so, stopping recording the log data which are recorded currently and are of the lowest level according to predetermined levels of the log data, starting a new measurement period and returning to execute the step B, if not, executing a step D; and D, judging whether a predetermined restoration condition is satisfied, if so, restoring to record log data of all levels, if not, returning to execute the step B. By using the method provided by the invention, when a communication device is in abnormal condition, the retention time of the log data is prolonged effectively, thereby facilitating fault location of the communication device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of communication, in particular to a method for recording log data. Background technique [0002] In the existing communication technology, various communication devices (such as base stations) are long-running technical devices that need to record a large amount of log data during their operation, so that they can be used for fault location when the communication device fails . As time goes on, the amount of log data generated by the communication device will increase. If all the log data generated by the communication device are stored in log files, a very large storage space will be required. Due to the limited physical size of the memory, it is impossible to store the log data of all time periods in the log file, but only the log data of a certain period of time. When the size of the log file reaches the maximum value set, the earliest The log data of will be gradually overwritten by the latest log dat...

Problems solved by technology

This method is a passive measure. When the communication equipment is working normally, the recording of log data is generally relatively stable, so the retention time of log data can be estimated in advance; however, when the working status of the communication equipment is abnormal (for example, failure) , a large amount of log data will be generated in a relatively short period of time, and these generated log data will occupy a large amount of storage space in the log file, so the retention time of the log data in the log file will be severely shortened. The log data (called "golden location information") will be overwritten by new log data in a short time, which will have a serious impact on the fault location of the communication equipment
