Prior to 6.06 *without* having NTP configured/available, the eNB shows
the correct Date and Time stamp even if the GPS Comms is showing as
down, meaning that the GPS is functioning, but something else is not
like S1. That can be a good hint as to if you need to look at the GPS
phy layer (call in the climber$) or not.
I don't know if that is still the case because I haven't deployed a new
eNB straight to 6.06 yet although I suspect it is.

I believe the order is that you have to have a valid S1 connection,
**then** the eNodeB will try to turn on the GPS. If the GPS works,
**then** the eNodeB will start turning on the antenna ports.
If you take an eNodeB out of the box, plug in a GPS, log in to the
management IP, and look at the timing port, the unit will never ever
ever say that it has timing, or even gps-comm-status. It needs to be
configured enough, and cabled enough, to have a valid S1 signaling
connection to the EPC.
I’ve told telrad that some UI changes, like a simple command to tell
us where it is in the process between ‘cold boot’ and ‘fully
functional’ would be nice, as well as maybe some more descriptive
statuses. ‘timing gps-comm-status NoS1Server’ would be far more useful.
Or, you know, just decouple initiating the GPS device from having a
valid s1 server.
Similarly, imagine this:
>show ran port
PORT OPERATIONAL ADMIN
NUM STATUS STATE
------------------------------
1 OutOfService-NoTiming InService
etc
Or:
>show ran port
PORT OPERATIONAL ADMIN
NUM STATUS STATE
------------------------------
1 OutOfService-NoS1 InService
Or maybe even:
>show ran port
PORT OPERATIONAL ADMIN ERROR
NUM STATUS STATE STATE
-----------------------------------------------
1 OutOfService InService NoTiming or NoS1
Or maybe couple it into show status device:
>show status device
general {
product-type COMPACT;
product-subtype ENB;
compact-model-type BreezeCompact3000;
}
inventory {
hw-ver "1 (CORE: E500MC v3.2)";
serial-number 95018308;
main-sw-ver 0606.04013;
backup-sw-ver 0600.02616;
running-sw MainSW;
boot-ver 2013.01.00014;
up-time 2016-07-21T11:07:27-05:00;
}
Service-prerequisites{
S1-signalling VALID;
Timing VALID;
Ran-ports VALID;
}
Or something like that.

It will also look like that if your S1 is down.

Did you follow the wiring diagram that came with the GPS to make the
cable? If so, they are fried. They require a standard Cat5 cable,
not the one on the diagram that seems to still be included with some
antennas. That wiring diagram was for a different radio platform, not
the Compact and we have had many operators follow it and kill their
GPS. Telrad has been RMA ing any that happened to. We went through
our tock and removed those directions but I suspect there are some
floating around still.

We are putting up 2 new sectors and both of them have no GPS comms.
Any idea of what to look for? I have a hard time believing that
both GPS antennas are bad.
BreezeCompact> show timing
