IntroductionThe ONAP Operations Manager (OOM) is responsible for life-cycle management of the ONAP platform itself; components such as MSO, SDNC, etc. It is not responsible for the management of services, VNFs or infrastructure instantiated by ONAP or used by ONAP to host such services or VNFs. OOM uses the open-source Kubernetes container management system as a means to manage the Docker containers that compose ONAP where the containers are hosted either directly on bare-metal servers or on VMs hosted by a 3rd party management system. OOM ensures that ONAP is easily deployable and maintainable throughout its life cycle while using hardware resources efficiently. In summary OOM provides the following capabilities:

  • Deployment - with built-in component dependency management (including multiple clusters, federated deployments across sites, and anti-affinity rules)

  • Configuration - unified configuration across all ONAP components

  • Monitoring - real-time health monitoring feeding to a Consul UI and Kubernetes

  • Heal- failed ONAP containers are recreated automatically

  • Clustering and Scaling - cluster ONAP services to enable seamless scaling 

  • Upgrade - change-out containers or configuration with little or no service impact

  • Deletion - cleanup individual containers or entire deployments

OOM supports a wide variety of cloud infrastructures to suit your individual requirements.

Contributions: Instructions on how to set up Gerrit is here: Configuring Gerrit.  Please join the onap-discuss list (OOM posts are tagged with oom) or attend OOM's weekly meetings for information on how you can help. 

Commit requirements: Commits on OOM are always welcome and will be reviewed with care by OOM committers. As OOM is an installer, we ask to have a specific (but very close to Commit Messages) way to create them. They must comply with following pattern:

[NAME_OF_COMPONENT|DOC|COMMON|GENERIC] Meaningful title (from OOM side) at least one sentence explaining the change done in this patch, cause and consequences and possibly more of course Issue-ID: AS_WE_ARE_FORCED_BUT_MEANINGLESS Change-ID: xxx Sign-off: xxx

Commit message will be the last part that will stay with our code so it must clearly explain the changes, the "why" and the consequences. If it change OOM behavior in any way, documentation must be also updated.

Merge requests which are not following this pattern will not be merged.

Please read the following pages and follow the guidelines for writing commit message contained therein.



Development Policies, Standards, and Coding

OOM Quick Start and Cloud Setup Guides

The official OOM Quick Start Guide is found at the onap.readthedocs.io site. If you need to setup a Kubernetes cloud to host your ONAP deployment you can find descriptions of how to do so for many cloud technologies in the OOM Cloud Setup Guide.

OOM User and Developer Guides

OOM uses the Helm / Kubernetes container management system to orchestrate the life cycle of the ONAP infrastructure components.  If you're a user of OOM you'll want to read the OOM User Guide. If you're an ONAP developer and would like to add a component to ONAP you'll want to read the OOM Developer Guide.
