Summary:
Single service design: single CFS with resources (VNFs+PNF). No nested services.
PNF PnP in E2E services: PNF PnP is not currently implemented in SO's CreateE2EService BPMN workflow, which is the one triggered by ExternalAPI during service instantiation
- PRH team to update PNF_READY internal event: BBS needs additional info to be passed in the PNF_READY event
- Service instance related info: SO team needs clarification on how those service instance metadatum are provided to SO and which data needs to be stored as metadata in AAI vs SDNC MD-SAL vs data that is only needed at orchestration time
Single service design
Nested services feature is not currently supported as expected in SO. There is a workaround involving allotted resources, but the easiest solution for us is to go with a design with a single service (CFS) and everything else as a resource underneath it (Access Connectivity, Internet Profile, CPE PNF...). This will not not impact our agreement with A&AI team for BBS. Everything that needs to be stored as metadata, can still be stored in the metadata section of the single CFS service instance.Victor SDN-C will be creating every resource under one single service instance
- victor gao will have to handle the modeling changes so that in the service design, we can create one service with 2 VFs (Internet Profile and Access Connectivity), 1 PNF (CPE-ONT), and the necessary virtual-links/

- CPs.

- Stavros Kanarakis will have to change the bbs-event-processor microservice implementation to reflect the fact that everything will now be under a single CFS service.
SDN-C will be creating everything under one service
PNF PnP flow
...
in E2E services
PNF PnP flow part currently only works for normal services service orchestration (services instantiated by VID). It is not workingimplemented for E2E services orchestration (instantiated by an External API order request). As explained by Seshu Kumar Mudiganti, ExternalAPI can only trigger the instantiation of E2E Services in SO.
We need to check with Seshu the SO team how to handle it. It is a priority for BBS since we have based all of our flows in the PnP flow and we make use of ExternalAPI for service ordering and instantiation.

READY internal event
PRH needs to send additional information coming in the PNF registration event (that is BBS use case specific ) in the PNF_ready READY event (attachmentPoint, accessID, CVLAN, SVLAN)
Service-instance-related information
We need to provide further details for each piece of data we want to store under A&AI as part of a service instance, since SO handles service-related information.
