During service lifecycle, operators will need to perform several maintenance tasks. While ONAP components provide significant amount of functionality, quite often this functionality is not easily accessible to end users. Fro example, in order to upgrade all instances of a specific VNF, which is a very common operating task task an operator would have to interface directly with A&AI and App-C/VFC to perform the task.
Having component functionality exposed (perhaps through a SDC UI) in a way that will allow operators to perform tasks like that quickly would make ONAP a lot easier to use and gain traction.
