pagePin1

 




  1. SOL003 Adapter continues to be an SO microservice component, and exposes its NBI to any SOL003 Adapter client in ONAP
  2. SOL003 Adapter is registered to MSB.
  3. Operator registers VNFM and VIM to ESR in AAI.
  4. SOL003 Adapter exposes its NBI to any SOL003 Adapter client in ONAP
    1. Interfaces will be refactored to be generic to allow access by other ONAP components.
    2. The NBI will be enhanced for additional SOL003 operation support
  5. SDC distributes SDC packages including the vendor original SOL004 (VNF and PNF) and SOL007 (NS) packages 
  6. SO (SDC Controller) passes the SDC CSAR ID to ETSI Catalog Manager to invoke storage
  7. ETSI Catalog Manager queries for SDC CSAR with the SDC CSAR id & store SOL004/SOL007 package.
  8. SO (BPMN) and the SOL003 Adapter client locates SOL003 Adapter.
  9. SO (BPMN) and the SOL003 Adapter client invokes SOL003 Adapter.
  10. SOL003 Adapter retrieves VNF package from Catalog Manager.
  11. SOL003 Adapter gets available VNFM locations (endpoints) and gets VIM and VNF Info.
  12. SOL003 Adapter selects a VNFM, based on a VNFM locating mechanism.
  13. SOL003 Adapter and SVNFM supports SOL003 VNF LCM, granting and package management operations.
  14. SOL003 Adapter supports HPA-based Granting, leveraging OOF.
  15. SOL003 Adapter updates vServer, status and VNF association in AAI
  16. SOL003 Adapter and SVNFM support authentication and authorization (AAF, and vendor AA mechanism) 
  17. For integration testing, the VNFM Simulator is used.


SOL003 Operations

The following SOL003 operations will be supported:

  • Create VNF/CNF
  • Instantiate VNF/CNF
  • Terminate VNF/CNF
  • Delete VNF/CNF
  • Grant enhancement
  • Query of VNF
  • Scaling (stretch goal)
  • Modify
  • Operation Status
