• • Vendor SVNFM must be "SOL003-compliant"
  • Providing SOL003 APIs for VNFM LCM, based on ETSI VNFLifecycleManagement
    • Use https://forge.etsi.org/gitlab/nfv/SOL002-SOL003/2.5.1/master/src/SOL003/VNFLifecycleManagement swagger for providing services
    • Create
    • Instantiate
    • Grant request to SO VNFM Adapter, as a client
    • Life cycle notification
    • Terminate/Delete
  • Registration itself to ONAP (thru A&AI ESR) - Name, Type, Vendor, Version, URL, VIM, Username and Password
  • Providing Subscription Services for Life-cycle Management Notifications
  • Support of the "Direct Mode" of Resource Management only
    • After receiving a grant permission, the VNFM sends requests for resources directly to VIM
    • Invoking MultiCloud from VNFM is under discussion, but not for Dublin
    • The "Indirect Mode" of Resource Management is being discussed, but not for Dublin

• • Even though SO Building Blocks are used for the SO VNFM Adapter, assignment data will be pre-loaded into SDNC for the Dublin release.
  • In El Alto release, preload data could be replaced with SO request data (TBD)
  • Possible preload data structure. The additionalParams and extVirtualLinks data will be preloaded to SDNC, and the SO VNFM Adapter will retrieve the data from SDNC.

    • {  
         "additionalParams ":"{\"param_1\": \"value_1\",\"param_2\": \"value_2\",\"param_3\": \"value_3\"}",
         "extVirtualLinks":"[{\"id\": \"vlaue\",\"resourceId\": \"value\",\"extCps\": [{\"cpdId\": \"cpdId_value\",\"fixedAddresses\": [{\"fixedAddresses\": {\"macAddress\": [\"macAddress_1\", \"macAddress_2\"]}}]}]}]"
      }

• VNFM Simulator

SVNFM is provided by its vendor, which is vendor-specific by nature. For ONAP integration testing for SO VNFM Adapter, a generic VNFM Simulator is needed. This generic VNFM Simulator will support SOL003-compliant interfaces. 

In Dublin, the Simulator will support Crate, Instantiate, Terminate and Delete VNF operations and Grant request/response handling. Simulated mock-up request and response data will be exchanged.
