Operating in the 3.65 band.

I checked 5 UE's and all them have 20+ days of Uptime, and Connection time
of 6 Days.  I did a EPC reboot 6 days ago.

I have seen where after a reboot of the eNB I have to reboot the EPC.  We
have two EPC's and it will say EPC2 is UP, but refuses to use it until I
reboot EPC1.

Monitor /show the tlsyslog file on the EPC.  It will show what is going on
with a UE.  (You may need to unable logging..)
I look for past issues, then use the "monitor" command to keep an eye on
it.

BreezeWay2020> file show /mnt/flashfs/log/tlsyslog

Are you seeing anything like this?

29326:2016-02-23,04:23:17.813355:NOTICE:0:06.05.03700:MME:1059:MME: Recv
UE_Ctxt RelReq from eNodeB 011000100 with IP 172.16.70.2 with cause 26 for
UE(52) - trigger Detach

What you need to look for is if there is a "cause ?? for UE(??) - trigger
Detach"'.

I was getting lots of Cause 6 "Channel Unacceptable". The MCS level had
dropped down to 0 or 1 and the UE disconnects and reconnects 1 - 2 minutes
later.
This was caused by two issues.  1. Split mode 2x2 where the two sectors
could see each other.  2. The UE had a bad board and would think the BIT
error rate was too high. We had a couple of those in a batch.  Replacing
the UE would fix it 100% of the time.
