Instantiation Rules
POMBA audit reports are generated based on the rules that applied in the rules engine generating the violations. The following is an initial capture of rules
| Rule | Data Sources | Attributes | Description | Category | Severity | Story | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Attribute Comparison | A&AI, SDN-C, Network Discovery | All | This rule compares all attributes by the same name from different Context Builders and returns a violation if the fields do no match. This includes the case where the name is present by the value is null in one of the cases. It does not produce a violation if one of the Context Builders is missing an attribute. Note in Casablanca, this will be implemented in a non-generic way, and made more generic as a future work item | Attribute Mismatch | MAJOR? | LOG-434 - Getting issue details... STATUS |
| 2 | vnfc-type |
| Validate that each VNFC instance in AAI conforms VNFC type defined in SDC model | VNFC Consistency | ERROR | LOG-571 - Getting issue details... STATUS | |
| 3 | vnfc-count |
| Validate that for each VNFC node defined in SDC model there is at least one VNFC instance in AAI | VNFC Consistency | WARN | LOG-571 - Getting issue details... STATUS | |
| 4 | vf-module-type |
| Validate that each VF module instance in AAI conforms VF Module defined in SDC service model | VF Consistency | CRITICAL | LOG-571 - Getting issue details... STATUS | |
| 5 | nfc-naming-code |
| nfc-naming-code | Validate that nfc-naming-code exists and is populated in AAI VNFC instance | Expected Field Populated | CRITICAL | LOG-571 - Getting issue details... STATUS |
| 6 | data-dictionary-valid-value |
| All (assuming we can tell if not defined in dictionary) | Validates for a particular field that its value aligns to what is in the data dictionary | Invalid Value | ERROR | LOG-404 - Getting issue details... STATUS |
| 7 | vserver-vfmodule |
| If vfModule is present, I expect vserver/VMs to be present within this structure. | Coming soon to release near you |
Note that Attribute Comparison in particular needs to check against the following, but should check everything it can
- Network Discovered attributes
- Existing AA&I and SDNC Comparisons for
- vnf-type
- vnf-name
- nf-naming-code
- Newly supported A&AI and SDNC attributes that align with those that have been network discovered
VNFInstance.vf-module[x].List of vservers VNFInstance.vf-module[x].vserver[x].id VNFInstance.vf-module[x].vserver[x].name VNFInstance.vf-module[x].vserver[x].inMaint VNFInstance.vf-module[x].vserver[x].pserver.hostname VNFInstance.vf-module[x].vserver[x].image.image-name VNFInstance.vf-module[x].vserver[x].prov-status and

Deletion Rules
In the future, we will add additional rules to be able to audit that a service has been completely deleted. POMBA will likely require an input parameter on the audit initiation request to indicate whether someone wishes to run the instantiation rule set or the deletion rule sets.
