@Ondrej F

OPEN

Graphgraph not included in OOM deployment. How can we make it an essential part of the ONAP deployment.

Step 0: Make it stable.  Fix the docker build Jenkins jobs for graphgraph, may need to upgrade to a version of npm to be acceptable to graphgraph.  Needs to fit into the LF global-job jobs.

How do we accelerate migration using A&AI and the RunTime DB solution

Proposed a topic to be explored by AI&I and other ONAP WGs.

High impact, common interest among most CSPs 

   

Status Quo:

Most operators have multiple, siloed, possibly overlapping topology and inventory (domain specific) databases

Goal is to integrate ALL Inventory, and Topology databases into a Unified AI&I Architecture modeled DB which would contain ALL VNFs (VMs/Containers), PNFs, plus support easy expansion for future Inventory & Topology constructs/technologies.  

May take considerable time/investment (both are short).

 

Targeted Objectives

  • Fast integration/consolidation time

  • Minimize impact to business systems during migration

  • Reduce throw away code

  • Reduce throw away integration work

  • Improve Service/Resource LCM & SA, especially for 5G

 

How to accelerate the migration to Unified Database?

  • Phased Externalization of key PNF/VNF/CNF attributes currently stored in multiple inventory and topology silos.

  • Simplify the eventual consolidation of Inventory and Topology DBs using proposed automation tools and advanced discovery capabilities supporting the above

  • Leverage AI&I and possibly the ONAP Runtime Config DB and other ONAP WGs to help solve the problem

  • Proposed topic can be explored by the AI&I and other ONAP WGs.

  • Need to expand this preliminary list

SONAR coverage report

@James Forsyth

DONE

https://sonarcloud.io/organizations/onap/projects

https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/AAI-2793

James Forsyth, the main reason behind these discrepancies is the fact that SonarQube is based on version 6.7.1 and SonarCoud is version 8+ 

 

After migrating to SonarCloud, we fetch updates they do automatically without the need of doing any manual upgrade. Since we migrated, few things have changed. For example:

  • LF does no longer mark warnings in the reports, only pass or fail

  • LF is no longer able to manage individual quality profiles per language. Whatever latest support is there, we fetch this automatically in our side.

  • Jacoco plugin has changed quite a bit, we need to make sure our reports are now xml based instead of exec. I think this can be the main reason why you are facing coverage drops. Can you please check? This is what Sonar mentioned to me in detail: 

You can find more info in the wiki :https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/SonarCloud+migration+from+SonarQube

Update 19 Feb: All Fixed except: aai-sparky-be, aai-esr-server and aai-validation.  Jimmy is working on them.

SO query in AAI

@shashikanth.vh

DONE

NNI Use Case - discovering 2 topologies from the network

Use case is asking for the ability in AAI to link an underlay and overlay together by having a cousin relationship between 2 PNFs.  Asking @Chandra Cinthalato verify if that edge rule can be added for the Frankfurt release.

Per Chandra: "I think pnf -> pnf edge is redundant and not needed as we can traverse (thru a logical or physical interface) from pnf -> p-interface/l-interface -> pnf."

@shashikanth.vh will let the AAI team know if that solves the problem

@Chandra Cinthala  please note: According to @shashikanth.vh, the team requires a relationship from an overlay topology node to an underlay topology node; by using the p-interface in overlay we cannot traverse to underlay node.  Suggest to allow an edge for PNF→PNF, which is consistent with RFC 8345 model

Search guard issue

@Giulio Graziani

ON HOLD

Merged and released yesterday; issue is closed. 

https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/AAI-2617

Tracking for Frankfurt:

https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/AAI-2677

Search guard container no longer available so elasticsearch-sg won't build.  Search guard allows us to secure the elastic communication, which in older versions was not available but newer versions have support for secure communication.

https://www.elastic.co/blog/dear-search-guard-users

Consider opendistro as replacement for search-guard

Can we consider this one:

E2E Network Slicing

@LIN MENG

DONE

For the E2E Network Slicing use case for Frankfurt Release, we intend to leverage the nested service model work that has been going on since Dublin release. From A&AI perspective, we foresee that the schemas would have to be enhanced to cover network slicing models. We have considered A&AI to be a stretch goal for Frankfurt, though we are committing resources. So, we would like to start the discussion in the coming weeks, and subsequently implementation work to try our best to complete the implementation for Frankfurt. AAI-2600 has been created just to indicate the SDC impacts, we will update it with more details, and also join the A&AI weekly call during the next 1-2 weeks to discuss further.

GraphGraph Image Missing in Nexus

@Venkata Harish Kajur

OPEN

Graph Graph Images are missing from nexus and it needs to be resolved in order for elalto deployment to be successful.

OOM-2161

How did this docker image get pushed to nexus and why was it removed from nexus?  

Graphgraph was removed from the default helm chart, but we still need to get these jobs fixed.

@James Forsythwill look at it and ask @Former user (Deleted)for guidance on this - looks like some jjbs are missing and configs are probably wrong, too.
@Ondrej F will reach out to Pavel and see if we can figure out why the build and stage jobs are failing.

Upcoming R6 Functional Requirements

@Benjamin Cheung

IN PROGRESS

Release 6 (Frankfurt) proposed use cases and functional requirements

Use Case Realization Call: September 25, 2019

https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/AAI-2600

We have created REQ-158 - 

for this use case. For AAI impacts, we have created AAI-2600 - A&AI support of Network Slicing Demo in Frankfurt.Reg. details of the AAI impacts, this is still being worked out, as there is an alternative proposal, and we are trying to align w.r.to scope & impacts. We will share more details in the coming days. The overall use case will also be presented to the Architecture Sub-committee for approval (based on the f2f discussions that happened in Antwerp 2 weeks ago).

https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/AAI-2670

@James Forsyth No status yet, will ask on UCR call today

https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/AAI-2671

We are currently reviewing the list of items we found in the BBWF BBS testing and once we sort through them we will communicate the results back to ONAP community.

Regarding AAI specifically, we do not foresee any new requirements for Frankfurt, but we would like to conclude the review first before jumping to final conclusions.

https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/AAI-2672

@James Forsyth No status yet, will ask on UCR call today.  Followed up, no representation from use case.  Will look for response via email.

https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/AAI-2673

We are not expecting any changes at this time. Tech Mahindra is working on populating a&ai with the VNF specific information from K8S. There is a chance that we realize some changes to the schema, but we don’t expect any changes to the code.

https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/AAI-2674

During run-time solution there are AAI impacts. Run-time solution is not planned for Frankfurt release. Only Import Service Catalog solution in SDC is targeted for F release.

AAI Impact highlights:

After Service Order decomposition in SO, CFS Service Instance details will be stored in AAI.

After response from 3^rd^ Party Domain, RFS instance details will be updated in AAI.

The sequence diagram 

depicts the run time view  of Third Party Order Activation using the on-boarded service definition and highlights AAI impacts.

ReUse in AAI:

We plan to leverage the SPPartner model, created for CCVPN, to store the 3^rd^ Party details in AAI.

org.onap.aai.domain.yang.SpPartner present in aai-schema v15

@James Forsyth Confirm on UCR call that this is object re-use and test only support from AAI

https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/AAI-2623

Have done some prototyping in Dublin to ingest topology from external controllers and show them in A&AI. Will need more work to act on notifications from controllers and keep the topology in sync

https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/AAI-2678

For the 5G Bulk PM use case in R6, I’m attaching a few slides showing how we think AAI can be used as part of the UC realization. We are currently making the following assumptions:

  • PNF and VNF models contain status attribute that can indicate when a new instance has been fully instantiated (may still require update to SO workflow)

  • AAI will send topology event on AAI-EVENT topic when status attributes are updated

Can you review the slides and the assumptions above and let us know if you see any issue. We can also setup a separate meeting if needed.

Note: I will share the same slides on the SO weekly meeting today.

Migration

@Ankit Bhatt

IN PROGRESS

What is the purpose of MigrateCloudRegionUpgradeCycle migrator in onap graphadmin migration framework?

Need @William LaMont to check on this by Oct 23, 2019 

From Casablanca to Dublin, should these be run?

  • v14/MigrateMissingFqdnOnPservers

  • v13/MigrateVnfcModelInvariantId

  • v13/MigrateModelVer

Migration will check if it's already been run, and won't run again.

Jira task created to track this: AAI-2689

ESR

@James Forsyth

@Bo Lv
@Former user (Deleted)

IN PROGRESS

Need to know if the ZTE team who built ESR intends to continue to support this sub-project in Frankfurt.  Multiple Jira issues were not worked in Dublin / El Alto, which leads me to think that the ESR project might need to be deprecated.  Inviting @Bo Lv and @Former user (Deleted)to see what the current status is.

Hi, we didn't have resources for ESR in El Alto, and I(Huabing Zhao) and Lv Bo won't be able to contribute to ESR in F release, but @Peng He will continue supporting  ESR in F release on behalf of ZTE team. Please add him in the loop for the ESR related issues.

v17 schema for Frankfurt

@shashikanth.vh

ON HOLD

Since the CCVPN SOTN proposal is in progress already, could we have the v17 schema introduced into master branch to receive the updates for Frankfurt release? https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/AAI-2607

See also AAI-CCVPN-Extension-SOTN Proposals for Frankfurt Release and https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/AAI-2593

https://lf-onap.atlassian.net/browse/AAI-2594 already added some v17 files but needs more work to be complete.
