Deploy vLB to Multiple Cloud Regions

Owned by Bin Yang

1, I onboard 3 new cloud regions into AAI (in addition to the default one (CloudOwner/RegionOne) populated by robot init script) with the ESR registration portal: http://portal.api.simpledemo.onap.org:30280/iui/aai-esr-gui/extsys/vim/vimView.html



               CloudOwner2/RegionOne

               CloudOwner2/CloudRegion2

               CloudOwner3/CloudRegion3



2, I hacked into SO to add them into catalogDB:



3, Instantiate a Service Instance of vLB service model: vLB2

               This is can only be done with Test API of “VNF_API”, while fails always with Test AP of GR_API



4, Add vnf to vLB2 and select the CloudRegion2(CloudOwner2)

               vLB2-VNF1

5, Prepare preload json for VID uploading (refer to https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/wiki/display/DW/VID+Preload+Upload+Option+Steps )

preload_vid_vlbbase.json

6, create VF Module:       vLB2-VNF1-VFM1

               Select CloudRegion2(CloudOwner2)

               Upload the “preload_vid_vlbbase.json”, de-select SDNC preload





Then I got the dialog showing the progress and told me the result is failure:

I think the critical issue is:

"requestStatus": "STATUS: Received error from SDN-C: aic-cloud-region,CloudRegion2 not found in AAI",



I am wondering why SDN-C is requesting (aic-cloud-region/CloudRegion2) other than (CloudOwner2/CloudRegion2) which specified via VID portal



Still investigating what's wrong or what the gap is



The following jira/patch might be relevant:

Progress on June 5th:





With patch https://gerrit.onap.org/r/#/c/so/+/89283/ I am able to create the service instance by GR-API now.



I met another issue while I am trying to “add node instance” by selecting non-default cloud-region: CloudRegion3(CloudOwner3) which differ the default one by both cloud-region-id and the cloud owner.



The vid dialog generate following error message:



"requestId": "55f679a6-c513-4b59-b8e4-e1ba8aba29d3",

"requestType": "createInstance",

  }

}



So I tried to add another node instance by selecting “CloudRegion(CloudOwner)”, then it succeeded .
