VNF Mapping:

  • Define a new data type based on the org.openecomp.resource.abstract.nodes.VF with ETSI SOL001 VNF data type attributes.

    • Make the org.openecomp.resource.abstract.nodes.ETSI.VNF a superset of both tosca.nodes.nfv.VNF and org.openecomp.resource.abstract.node.VF
    • During VNF onboarding, SDC copies SOL001 VNF attribute contents to the corresponding attributes in the org.openecomp.resource.abstract.nodes.ETSI.VNF
      • In Guilin, SO NFVO, VFC and SVNFM get those SOL001 VNF attributes from the descriptor, not from AAI. So, AAI schema changes are not expected in Guilin.
    • SOL001 VNF attributes in SDC AID DM VNF will be visible to SDC UI, so SDC UI can change the attributes.
      • But the onboarded vendor ETSI package will note be changed by the SDC UI users in Guilin.
      • Since SO NFVO, VFC and SVNFM use only the original ETSI package, those changes will not be used in Guilin;
      • For the Honolulu release, it is under consideration
        • to sync up between those modified SOL001 VNF attributes and the vendor ETSI Package attributes 
        • to reflect those modified SOL001 VNF attributes in the orchestration
    • ONAP specific attributes that are inherited from the org.openecomp.resource.abstract.nodes.VF will be filled up by SDC (design time)
      • Those attribute contents will not be mapped back into the SOL001 VNF (reverse mapping). For that case, only the SOL001 VNF corresponding attributes will be copied

VDU Mapping:

  • Make the org.openecomp.resource.abstract.nodes.ETSI.VFC a superset of both tosca.nodes.nfv.Vdu and org.openecomp.resource.abstract.nodes.VFC
  • Note: the org.openecomp.resource.abstract.nodes.VFC represents design-time VFC, not VFC instances
  • During VNF onboarding, SDC copies SOL001 VDU attribute contents to the corresponding attributes in the org.openecomp.resource.abstract.nodes.ETSI.VFC
    • In Guilin, SO NFVO, VFC and SVNFM get those SOL001 VDU attributes from the descriptor, not from AAI. So, AAI schema changes are not expected in Guilin.
  • SOL001 VDU attributes in SDC AID DM VNF will be visible to SDC UI, so SDC UI can change the attributes.
    • But the onboarded vendor ETSI package will note be changed by the SDC UI users in Guilin.

      • to reflect those modified SOL001 VDU / VFC attributes in the orchestration

VF-Module Mapping:

  • SDC deduces the VF-Module from the SOL001 VNFD Policies>scaling_aspects>properties>aspects
  • Additional VF-Module attributes are deduced as the following table
  • SOL003 Adapter may need to transform the VF-Module back to the SOL001 VNFD policies for the scaling and healing requests from VNFM(s) – not part of Guilin

Onboard and Design ETSI SOL004 compliant VNF packages


Executive Summary - Enable a vendor provided ETSI SOL004 compliant VNF package including an ETSI SOL001 VNF Descriptor to  be onboarded into ONAP for composition into an ONAP Service

Business Impact - Enables operators and service providers to use same ETSI compliant VNF packages with ONAP and existing NFVO. Industry compatibility.

Business Markets - All operators that are currently using ETSI packages to deploy VNFs

Funding/Financial Impacts - Reduction in operations expense from using industry standard VNF packaging.  Reduction in capital expense from vendors using a single packaging methodology.

Organization Mgmt, Sales Strategies -There is no additional organizational management or sales strategies for this requirement outside of a service providers "normal" ONAP deployment and its attendant organizational resources from a service provider.

  • Support for using an ETSI v2.7.1 VNF in an ONAP Service

TBD

Support the substitution_mappings in the VNFD.

Currently, the substitution_mappings is not supported by SDC. Lack of this support blocks SOL004 VNF package management and ETSI Catalog Manager:

  • Prior to Frankfurt, as a workaround, the operator creates a dummy VNF without the substitution_mappings or node_types in the MainServiceTemplate.yaml and added a real VNF package with the substitution_mappings and user-define nodes in its Artifacts>DEPLOYMENT>OTHER directory.
  • It is to trick the current SDC onboarding issues because SDC does not check the OTHER directory.
  • In the Frankfurt/Dublin release, SDC was enhanced to support the vendor VNF package in the ETSI_PACKAGE directory.
  • In the Guilin release, the ONBOARDED_PACKAGE directory is changed to the ETSI_PACKAGE.
  • Since SDC Frankfurt/Dublin, we don't have to use the secondary VNF package unnecessary, but we still needs to follow an old way because of lack of substitution_mappings and user-defined node_types.
  • When SDC supports the subscription_mappings user-defined node types, the vendor VNF package does not have to add another VNF package in the Artifacts>DEPLOYMENT>OTHER directory, and the ETSI Catalog Manager will support the VNF package in the ETSI_PACKAGE directory.
    • ETSI Catalog Manager will depend on this SDC support.

Support of the substitution_mappings and user-defined node_types will remove the issues and support ETSI package management and others.

Support of the user-defined node types is handled by another task. This task needs to handle the substitution_mappings only.


For the testing,  use the vgw6.csar


For the Frankfurt release workaround, we added the following to the MainServiceTemplate.yaml, so the ETSI Catalog Manager can retrieve the descriptor_id from the metadata, instead of from the node_type. Once the substitution_mapping is supported by SDC, we don't have to use the descriptor_id in the metadata section.

      • SOL001 concept of Aspect+ScalingDelta combination is one to one with the ONAP concept of VF Module.
      • SOL001 concept of VDU is one to one with the ONAP concept of A&AI vServer
      • SOL001 concept of a connection point associated with a VDU corresponds to the ONAP concept of the same name, as does the understanding of the meaning of “internal” versus “external” connection point.
      • ONAP-compliant SOL001 VNF Vendors will be obliged to name their HEAT files using a naming convention that encodes the SOL001 Aspect+ScalingDelta names
      • ONAP-compliant SOL001 VNF Vendors will be obliged to name their SOL001 Aspect+ScalingDelta parameters using a naming convention that readily maps to the corresponding HEAT properties.  
      • In addition, if AT&T has already deployed such a vendor’s VNF into its network, the HEAT naming will remain invariant, and (at least) the (AT&T version of that) SOL001 be written to match it.
    • What to do
      • ONAP will be extended to incorporate the constructs of Aspect and Scaling Level.  This includes SDC’s, SOs, and A&AI’s modeling of these constructs and A&AI's ability to capture and SO’s ability to set/update the "current scaling level" of a VNF for a given Aspect. 
      • If ETSI in their SOL001 VNFD had defined a "ScalingDelta" in a straightforward manner, i.e., in terms of the VNFCs that comprise it, then it would be very easy to extract VF Module information from the VNFD.  (I would like to see ETSI define "ScalingDelta" in this manner, as opposed to the current way they do so. )  However, given that they did not, ONAP SDC would need to be extended to derive the VF Module “structure” from the SOL001 document through the algorithm below.  “Structure” in this case includes the VDU topology, connection points and associated parameters.  This algorithm will:
      • Determine the set of Aspects and corresponding VDUs and associated ScalingDeltas (step_deltas) from the SOL001.
      • Determine the set of ScalingLevels associated with each Aspect and the ScalingDeltas associated with each.
      • Translate the VDU-centric representation of ScalingDeltas (step_deltas) as per SOL001 to come up with a ScalingDelta-centric representation that captures the number and type of VDUs associated with that ScalingDelta across the various VDU types.
      • Create a VF Module object that corresponds to each ScalingDelta-centric representation of a ScalingDelta calculated above.
      • Fill in the details of the VF Module object based on the SOL001 data to represent the VDU connection points, associated Networks (internal or external), and associated Parameters.
      • Determine if there is an artifact in the SOL004 package that is a HOT YAML whose file name corresponds (through a VNF vendor obligatory naming convention) to the Aspect+ScalingDelta from which this VF Module object was derived.  If so, associate that HOT file with the VF Module.
      • Name the VF Module based on a naming convention to capture the Aspect+ScalingDelta names
      • Determine and capture the mapping from each Aspect + ScalingLevel model for the VNF to the corresponding VF Module.
      • Given a desired state Aspect+ScalingLevel, will be able to calculate (from the SDC distributed mapping of Aspect+ScalingLevel to VF Module along with the current Scaling Level for this Aspect as per A&AI) the (ordered set of) VF Module(s) needed to take that VNF from the “current scaling level” to the desired level for that Aspect.
      • Note:  As an aside, SDC enhancements are being discussed. It is not clear if the SDC changes will be available in the Dublin time frame. some “stubbing off” SDC with a simulator could be suggested to at least prove in the run-time aspects of the solution.

Solution:

  • SDC deduces the VF-Module from the SOL001 VNFD Policies>scaling_aspects>properties>aspects
  • Additional VF-Module attributes are deduced as the following table
  • SOL003 Adapter may need to transform the VF-Module back to the SOL001 VNFD policies for the scaling and healing requests from VNFM(s) – not part of Guilin
