应理解,不同网络系统所支持的运维场景可能相同或不同,在执行以上图3所示流程时,可从网络系统支持的运维场景中选择一个运维场景,并获取网络系统在该运维场景下的运维参数,进一步确定该运维场景下网络系统的自动化等级。
另外,本申请所涉及的运维参数,可以是某个运维场景下的运维过程的统计值。比如,在网络规划场景下,可统计网络规划的时长,将该统计值作为统计规划时长并存储在本地,在执行S101所示步骤时,从本地获取统计规划时长作为运维参数。再比如,运维参数可以是统计装置根据运维场景下的运维过程进行统计得到的,其中,统计装置可以是待评价的网络系统中一个站点或一个子系统,或一个站点中的一个功能模块或芯片,或一个子系统中的一个功能模块或芯片,或者,统计装置可以是待评价的网络系统以外的站点、系统、设备或芯片。统计装置在获取运维参数后,可将运维参数存储于本地,或存储于网络系统。示例性的,统计装置可与一个或多个网络系统对应,用于统计一个或多个网络系统的运维参数。
示例性的,统计装置可以与用于执行本申请实施例自动化分级装置为同一装置,例如,统计装置与自动化分级装置同为待评价的网络系统中的一个站点。从而,自动化分级装置在执行S101所示步骤时,可从本地存储中获取运维参数。另外,本申请并不排除统计装置可以与以上自动化分级装置为不同设备,例如,统计装置与自动化分级装置分别为待评价的网络系统中的不同站点。此时,自动化分级装置在执行S101所示步骤时,可从统计 装置获取运维参数。
S102:根据所述网络系统在所述运维场景下的所述运维参数,确定所述网络系统在所述运维场景下的自动化等级,所述网络系统在所述运维场景下的自动化等级用于表征所述网络系统在所述运维场景下的自动化运维程度。
在S102所示步骤的执行中,可根据所述网络系统在运维场景下的运维参数以及所述运维场景下的参考自动化等级的评价信息,从多个参考自动化等级中确定一个参考自动化等级为所述网络系统在运维场景下的自动化等级。其中,参考自动化等级的评价信息可用于确定网络系统在运维场景下的自动化等级是否满足该参考自动化等级,当网络系统在运维场景下的运维参数满足参考自动化等级的评价信息时,可确定网络系统在运维场景下的自动化等级满足该参考自动化等级;和/或,当网络系统在运维场景下的运维参数不满足参考自动化等级的评价信息时,可确定网络系统在运维场景下的自动化等级不满足该参考自动化等级。
一种可能的示例中,参考自动化等级的评价信息可包括参考自动化等级的特征信息,如参考自动化等级对应的网络系统的复杂程度信息、网络系统包含的站点(和/或子系统)的数量或网络系统建立时间等信息中的部分或全部信息。例如,在网络系统的复杂程度很高、包含的站点数量很多或者网络系统建立的时间较久远的情况下,网络系统的自动化等级会在一定程度上受限,无法实现很高的自动化运维。
另一种可能的示例中,参考自动化等级的评价信息可包括参考自动化等级对应的等级信息,如参考自动化等级对应的运维性能评价指标。所述运维性能指标具体可以是某一运维场景下的运维参数的阈值,所述运维性能评价指标可用于比对待评价的网络系统在该运维场景下的运维参数,以根据比对结果确定网络系统是否满足运维性能评价指标对应的参考自动化等级。
具体来说,在从多个参考自动化等级中确定一个参考自动化等级为所述网络系统在运维场景下的自动化等级时,可根据参考自动化等级对应的运维性能评价指标,确定所述多个参考自动化等级中的一个参考自动化等级为所述网络系统在运维场景下的自动化等级。
以上参考自动化等级与运维性能评价指标之间的对应关系可以是预先设定的。例如,站点部署场景下,某个参考自动化等级对应的运维性能评价指标包括全配置参数生成时长小于2个小时、全配置参数生成中人参与时长为0小时以及用于指示全配置数据的完备性的参数大于95%,则在确定网络系统在重点部署场景下的自动化等级时,可分别判断站点部署场景下待评价的网络系统的运维参数中,全配置参数生成时长是否小于2个小时、全配置参数生成中人参与时长是否为0小时以及用于指示全配置数据的完备性的参数是否大于95%,若是,则确定运维参数满足该参考自动化等级的运维性能评价指标;否则,若其中任一次的判断结果为否,则确定运维参数不满足该参考自动化等级的运维性能评价指标。
示例性的,在从多个参考自动化等级中确定一个参考自动化等级为所述网络系统在运维场景下的自动化等级时,可从多个参考自动化等级中选择最高等级的参考自动化等级为所述网络系统在运维场景下的自动化等级,其中所述网络系统在运维场景下的运维参数满足所述选择的最高等级的参考自动化等级的评价信息。也就是说,可选择所述运维参数满足的评价信息对应的一个或多个参考自动化等级中,表征的自动化程度最高的参考自动化等级作为所述网络系统在运维场景下的自动化等级。
例如,以第一网络自动化等级、第二网络自动化等级、第三网络自动化等级、第四网 络自动化等级以及第五网络自动化等级分别表征的自动化程度递增为例,若待评价的网络系统在站点部署场景下的运维参数分别满足第一网络自动化等级、第二网络自动化等级以及第三网络自动化等级各自的评价信息,所述运维参数不满足第四网络自动化等级以及第五网络自动化等级各自的评价信息,则可将第三网络自动化等级确定为网络系统在站点部署场景下的自动化等级。
基于上述参考自动化等级与运维性能评价指标之间的对应关系,一种可实现方式可以是:若确定网络系统在运维场景下的运维参数满足第一参考自动化等级的评价信息,且所述网络系统在运维场景下的运维参数不满足第二参考自动化等级的评价信息,则确定所述网络系统在所述运维场景下的自动化等级为所述第一参考自动化等级,其中,所述第二参考自动化等级与第一参考自动化等级为相邻等级,且所述第二参考自动化等级表征的自动化程度高于所述第一参考自动化等级表征的自动化程度。再一种可实现方式还可以是若所述网络系统在运维场景下的运维参数满足第三参考自动化等级的评价信息,确定所述网络系统在所述运维场景下的自动化等级为所述第三参考自动化等级,其中,所述第三参考自动化等级表征的自动化程度高于除所述第三参考自动化等级以外的全部参考自动化等级分别表征的自动化程度。
举例来说,假设当前参考自动化等级包括第一网络自动化等级、第二网络自动化等级、第三网络自动化等级、第四网络自动化等级、第五网络自动化等级,其中,每个参考自动化等级对应各自的运维性能评价指标。其中,第一网络自动化等级、第二网络自动化等级、第三网络自动化等级、第四网络自动化等级以及第五网络自动化等级分别表征的自动化程度递增或递减,本申请不作具体限定。
下面以参考自动化等级的评价信息包括参考自动化等级对应的运维性能评价指标为例说明。以第一网络自动化等级、第二网络自动化等级、第三网络自动化等级、第四网络自动化等级以及第五网络自动化等级分别表征的自动化程度递增为例,若待评价的网络系统在站点部署场景下的运维参数包括全配置数据生成中人参与的时长为1小时,且第一网络自动化等级对应的运维性能评价指标包括全配置数据生成中人参与的时长大于0,第二网络自动化等级以及自动化程度更高的参考自动化等级对应的运维性能评价指标中全配置数据生成中人参与的时长为0,因此,待评价的网络系统在站点部署场景下的运维参数满足第一网络自动化等级对应的运维性能评价指标,但不满足第二网络自动化等级对应的运维性能评价指标,此时排除第二网络自动化等级以及自动化程度更高的参考自动化等级,选择第一网络自动化等级为该网络系统在站点部署场景下的自动化等级。
仍以第一网络自动化等级、第二网络自动化等级、第三网络自动化等级、第四网络自动化等级以及第五网络自动化等级分别表征的自动化程度递增为例,若待评价的网络系统在站点部署场景下的运维参数包括全配置数据生成中人参与的时长为0小时,且第五网络自动化等级对应的运维性能评价指标包括全配置数据生成中人参与的时长为0,因此,待评价的网络系统在站点部署场景下的运维参数满足第五网络自动化等级对应的运维性能评价指标,由于第五网络自动化等级表征的自动化程度最高,此时选择第五网络自动化等级为该网络系统在站点部署场景下的自动化等级。
一种可选择的方式中,可按照表征的自动化程度递增或递减的顺序从多个参考自动化等级中选择参考自动化等级,并判断待评价网络系统在运维场景下的运维参数是否满足该参考自动化等级的评价信息。比如,若按照递增顺序,则在确定待评价网络系统在运维场 景下的运维参数满足某一个参考自动化等级的评价信息后,选择下一个参考自动化等级,并判断运维参数是否满足下一个参考自动化等级的评价信息,若满足,则继续选择下一个参考自动化等级;否则,若不满足,则将前一个满足的参考自动化等级作为该网络系统在该运维场景下的自动化等级。再比如,若按照递减顺序,则在确定待评价网络系统在运维场景下的运维参数不满足某一个参考自动化等级的评价信息后,选择下一个参考自动化等级,并比较运维参数是否满足下一个参考自动化等级的评价信息,若满足,则将该满足的参考自动化等级作为该网络系统在该运维场景下的自动化等级;否则,若不满足,则继续选择下一个参考自动化等级,并继续比较运维参数与下一个参考自动化等级的评价信息。
可见采用以上图3所示方法,可获取网络系统在特定运维场景下的运维参数,并根据该运维参数确定网络系统在该特定运维场景下的自动化等级,从而实现网络系统在特定运维场景中的自动化程度的等级划分。
在本申请实施中,还可根据网络系统在网络系统支持的一个或多个运维场景下的自动化等级,确定所述网络系统的自动化等级。
在一种具体的示例中,若网络系统支持的运维场景的数量为一个,可将网络系统在该运维场景下的自动化等级确定为网络系统的自动化等级。在另一种具体的示例中,若网络系统支持的运维场景的数量为多个,可将网络系统支持的多个运维场景下网络系统的多个自动化等级中,表征的自动化程度最低的自动化等级,确定为网络系统的自动化等级,或者,可将网络系统支持的多个运维场景下网络系统的多个自动化等级中,表征的自动化程度最高的自动化等级,确定为网络系统的自动化等级。
在一种可能的实现方式中,一种可选方式可将网络系统在每个运维场景下分别的自动化等级对应的数值的平均值,确定网络系统的自动化等级。
例如,可根据以下公式确定网络系统的自动化等级对应的数值:
Figure PCTCN2020094747-appb-000001
其中,L表示网络系统的自动化等级对应的数值,L i表示网络系统在第i个运维场景下的自动化等级对应的数值,i为正整数,1≤i≤N,N为网络系统支持的运维场景的数量。
进一步,可对根据以上公式确定的数值L进行上取整或下取整,取整结果对应的自动化等级即网络系统对应的自动化等级。
假设网络系统支持的运维场景包括N个运维场景,以及,将第一网络自动化等级、第二网络自动化等级、第三网络自动化等级、第四网络自动化等级以及第五网络自动化等级分别量化为数值1至5。当网络系统支持的运维场景包括运维场景A、运维场景B以及运维场景C,且已知网络系统在运维场景A下的自动化等级为第二网络自动化等级,其对应的数值为2,网络系统在运维场景B下的自动化等级为第三网络自动化等级,其对应的数值为3,网络系统在运维场景C下的自动化等级为第五网络自动化等级,其对应的数值为5,则根据公式一可确定L=3.33。对L进行上取整,可知网络系统的自动化等级为第四网络自动化等级,或者,对L进行下取整,可知网络系统的自动化等级为第三网络自动化等级。
再一种可选方式,可根据网络系统支持的多个运维场景中每个运维场景对应的权重,计算多个运维场景下网络系统的自动化等级的加权平均值,并根据计算结果确定网络系统的自动化等级,其中,可根据不同的运维场景的重要性程度设置运维场景对应的权重。具体的,可根据以下公式,确定网络系统的自动化等级对应的数值:
Figure PCTCN2020094747-appb-000002
其中,L表示网络系统的自动化等级对应的数值,L i表示网络系统在第i个运维场景下的自动化等级对应的数值,q i表示网络系统在第i个运维场景对应的权重,i为正整数,1≤i≤N,N为运维场景的数量。示例性的,
Figure PCTCN2020094747-appb-000003
例如,在计算前可对q i进行归一化处理。
进一步,可对根据以上公式确定的数值L进行上取整或下取整,取整结果对应的自动化等级即网络系统对应的自动化等级。
当网络系统支持的多个运维场景包括运维场景A、运维场景B以及运维场景C,且已知网络系统在运维场景A下的自动化等级为第二网络自动化等级,其对应的数值为2、运维场景A对应的权重为0.6,网络系统在运维场景B下的自动化等级为第三网络自动化等级,其对应的数值为3、运维场景B对应的权重为0.3,网络系统在运维场景C下的自动化等级为第五网络自动化等级,其对应的数值为5、运维场景C对应的权重为0.1,则根据公式二可确定L=2.6。对L进行上取整,可知网络系统的自动化等级为第三网络自动化等级,或者,对L进行下取整,可知网络系统的自动化等级为第二网络自动化等级。
示例性的,若第一网络自动化等级、第二网络自动化等级、第三网络自动化等级、第四网络自动化等级以及第五网络自动化等级分别表征的自动化程度递增,则可对通过上述公式一和/或公式二确定的L进行下取整;若第一网络自动化等级、第二网络自动化等级、第三网络自动化等级、第四网络自动化等级以及第五网络自动化等级分别表征的自动化程度递减,则可对通过上述公式一和/或公式二确定的L进行上取整。
以上网络系统支持的多个网络场景,可包括网络部署场景,网络优化场景,网络维护场景,网络规划场景和业务运营场景中的至少一个。网络系统分别在网络系统支持的多个网络场景下的自动化等级的确定方式,可参照前述确定网络系统在网络场景下的自动化等级的方式,再次不再赘述。
