2 Types of logging in A&AI WS

@Former user (Deleted)

On Hold

1st Nov 2018

There are 2 types of logging in the services

• one read from EELFManager

• the other Logger log = Logger.getLogger( ...

Is that correct? Shouldn't there be just 1 type?

1st Nov:

After Casablanca release investigate logging guidelines and figure out what library to use in order to unify logging within A&AI

26th Nov: See also ONAP Application Logging Specification - Post Dublin

29th Nov: how does this fit with https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/LOG-877 ?

28th May: @Stela Stoykova is fixing https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/AAI-2462. Are there more that should be done for El Alto?

• In casablanca environment without Sparky-fe, how we are able to access the AAI-UI?

• In standalone AAI setup, how can i access the AAI UI? i am running the resources, traversal, elastic-search, search-data-service and sparky-be. but not able to access the UI, need to run any other services to access the UI?

tried with below URL,

http://<IP>:9517/services/aai/webapp/index.html

response:

Whitelabel Error Page

This application has no explicit mapping for /error, so you are seeing this as a fallback.

Was recently updated for custom query https://gerrit.onap.org/r/#/q/pramod+custom and contains hard-coded AAI data/schema. Maybe discuss with @Pamela Dragosh about how this data is maintained?

25th Apr: Wiki page OOF - HPA guide for integration testing updated for https://gerrit.onap.org/r/#/c/86588/

Similarly, @Scott Seabolt and @J / @Joss Armstrong wrote for APPC Sample A&AI Data Setup for vLB/vDNS for APPC Consumption and Script to load vLB into AAI:

The below put_vLB.sh script can be used to submit the vLB data to A&AI in order to run ConfigScaleOut use case. This script and referenced JSON files are used on an AAI instance where the cloud-region and tenant are already defined.

One for VIM: How-To: Register a VIM/Cloud Instance to ONAP and https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/AAI-1928

Potential issues:

• fragility of static import data file w.r.t. schema changes and version upgrades for each ONAP release?

• how "common" is this knowledge, i.e. what to load, where to get it, who else should be using it, etc?

• should it be automated/scripted, rather than manual steps to bootstrap?

• should it be a simulator program or test harness, rather than a static data file?

• should it reside within AAI CI/CD jobs for maintenance and upgrade of schema versions?

• who maintains the data itself? Is there a "data repository" which can be delegated to other teams, e.g. like documentation repository links in git?

• how many other teams have similar private stashes of AAI bootstrap data?

• does it need to be published at a stable URL to avoid linkrot?

Possible solution/action:

Purpose of fields in AAI

@Keong Lim

In Progress

18th April 2019

@Dénes Németh wrote in https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/AAI-1104:

In think it would be good to answer what is the meaning of the field (collection of PEMs of the CA xor URL)

Questions:

1. Is AAI intended to strictly prescribe how the fields are used and what contents are in the values?
2. Or does AAI simply reflect the wishes of all the client projects that use it to store and retrieve data?

Even if (1) is true, AAI is not really in any position to enforce how clients use the data, so really (2) is always true and we need to consult the original producers of the data and the ultimate consumers of the data to document their intended meanings.

How do we push to have documentation on the purpose and meaning of the fields in AAI?

Where does all this documentation go?

Should the documentation be backed up by validation code?

Schema-service roadmap

@James Forsyth

@Former user (Deleted)

On Hold

21st Mar 2019

31st Jan 2019:

The schema-service is ready. Currently it provides file-sharing capabilities in terms of schema/edgerule files.

In order for GraphGraph to take advantage of the schema parsing/processing in schema-service additional abstractions have to be implemented on top of the crude file2string functionality currently in schema-service.

GraphGraph needs the following functionality:

@Venkata Harish Kajur  and @Manisha Aggarwal What is missing in schema service that is needed in graphgraph is the following:

• rest call to get available schemas

• list of all schema nodes/items (like vserver, tenant, p-interfaces..) for example on a REST path /schemas/{schema}/nodes

• all relevant attributes of a given node/item for example on REST path /schemas/{schema}/nodes/{node}

• edges/relationships with their attributes between schema nodes/items (for example on REST path /schemas/{schema}/edges where you specify a "from" "to" schema items as query params)

• subgraph of the schema, where you specify 1. initial (root) items/node (like tenant or vserver) 2. schema version and 3. number of parent/cousin/child hops from the initial item/node

• all paths in a given schema graph between 2 items/nodes (like vserver and tenant) for a given schema version

• edges in the schema graph should be composed of edges in the schema file + edges created from the edgerules file

• edges should contain basic attributes when delivered via the subgraph call (like parent/child relationship and important properties from edgerules) and have additional (or all) attributes when queries via /schemas/{schema}/edges REST endpoint.

20. Mar 2019:

Open questions for schema-service:

1. what is the current implemented functionality?

2. what are the business use-cases in ONAP for schema-service? Description of functionality in relation to other services/projects is needed. In other words who needs it and why?

3. if no business use-cases can be formulated we should consider removing schema-service from A&AI and replacing it with standard file-sharing mechanisms.

21st Mar 2019:

Based on @William Reehil comments

https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/wiki/display/DW/AAI+Schema+Service?focusedCommentId=16325457 what is "our future proposed functionality"?

New AAF Certificates at startup

Jimmy Forsyth 

On Hold

24th Jan 2019

https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/AAI-2476

AAF will generate certificates to the be used by the containers at startup; AAI services should use the run-time generated certs instead of the ones that are in the repos or oom charts.

In dublin the services will mount a volume with certificates. This is on the roadmap for Dublin as a feature.

• is this for all service and/or HAProxy?

• Where are the certificates coming from (OOM/gerrit/generated by AAF)

• Suggestion in comment Re: AAI REST API Documentation - Dublin

Questions:

• how to minimise impact of the transition from pnf-name as unique to pnf-id as unique key?

  • would the v14 URL be different from the v15 URL? would both paths be equally supported for GET/PUT/etc?

• what forwards-compatibility or backwards-compatibility will be supported?

• how to migrate forwards or backwards database versions, ONAP versions, etc, across this transition?

• who is going to implement it? Test it?

• what is the impact of this not going ahead?

A&AI monitoring and failure prevention initiative

@Mike Elliott wrote in OOM Meeting Notes - 2018-12-5

f. AAI team wanted to get notified of AAI Cassandra issues automatically
                i. Can we setup a Nagios or equivalent to monitor both rancher/k8 and the applications for rancher/k8 issues ?

Keep an eye out for new issues!

This should be part of a larger A&AI monitoring and failure prevention initiative!

AAI HAProxy and 2-way-TLS

@Former user (Deleted)

On Hold

29th Nov

Technical solution to either decommission the proxy or make design changes to AAF to enable client side certificates.

After VF2F we will know if this is a requirement in Dublin. We discuss after this date.

question raised: MSB - would client authentication be supported?

AAI too slow for OOF/HAS

@Keong Lim

On Hold

25th Apr 2019

Under OOF Homing and Allocation Service (HAS) section, @Dileep Ranganathan wrote about Project Specific enhancements:

Optimize - AAI cache

• Use MUSIC or any other alternative in memory caching like Redis etc?

• Optimize flavor retrieval from A&AI and Cache the information if necessary

See also https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/OPTFRA-268 / https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/OPTFRA-291

Similarly to the "AAI too slow for Holmes" item below, this introduction of extra caching of AAI data is a worrisome development and sad indictment of the performance of the system architecture.

For holmes, we could possibly create a custom query to address it.

What can we do about this?

Would the AAI Cacher https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/AAI-1337 help to improve performance?

MultiCloud usage of AAI for HPA telemetry/time-series data to OOF

@Keong Lim

On Hold

18th April 2019

@Bin Yang and @Lianhao Lu (Deactivated) wrote in https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/MULTICLOUD-274:

HPA telemetry data collection and make it persistent in A&AI, from which OOF can leverage during its decision making process.

and

1.  Multi-cloud to collect the data from time-series data services like Prometheus (http://prometheus.io) or openstack Gnocchi, and push them to A&AI based on the data recording & aggregation rules.

and

The reason why we propose here is that VES mechanism doesn't store the telemetry data into A&AI. And OOF now can only get those kind of data from A&AI.

Some concerns:

• how much additional load will this place on AAI?

• will AAI cope with this load?

• is AAI suitable for "time-series data"?

• is "telemetry data" considered to be "active & available inventory"?

• should OOF access the telemetry/time-series data via other means (not AAI)?

• AAI API latency (4~6 second per request as benchmarked in CMCC lab) could be a problem

AAI Backup and Restore

@Keong Lim

On Hold

10th Jan 2019

@FREEMAN, BRIAN D asked on Re: Backup and Restore Solution: ONAP-OOM :

what would be the approach to backup an entire ONAP instance particualarly SDC, AAI, SDNC data ? would it be a script with all the references to the helm deploy releases or something that does a helm list and then for each entry does  the ark backup ?

What is the AAI strategy for backup and restore?

What is the overall ONAP strategy for backup and restore?

Should it be unified with the data migration strategy as per "Hbase to Cassandra migration" on 2018-11-14 AAI Meeting Notes?

Jimmy didn't directly raise the topic but there was movement - @Keong Lim asked "if istio service mesh is a no-go, is there a replacement for secure onap communications?
is backup/restore/upgradability included in s3p?"

@Michael O'Brien replied that a reference tool set for backup and restore was introduced in Casablanca:  Backup and Restore Solution: ONAP-OOM

@Mike Elliott said he would look at Brian's question, AAI will provide support as needed.
