Feedback notification to Policy

  • Policy vs Analytics - where to implement?
  • Issue no use case driving this topic yet
  • Spec says - notification yes, but not info about its processing
  • Notification receiver - currently logs the notification

from Slack:

Hi O-RAN-ONAP experts!
I have one question regarding the feedback policy operation, do you plan (or have some idea) how this operation should be supported in ONAP (as an SMO)?

Answer: We have a plan - but there are several options and it is not clear which one to choose

follow-up question: What should be done with such notifications? 

potential use case: UE movement → clean up of Policies when moving from one Near-RT-RIC to the next

Currently, we have only the status_notification_uri field in the policy preload available. But the http server is missing on the A1-P Consumer site (ONAP-PMS, SDNC/A1 Adapter) that will respond to this POST request (feedback) from the Near RT RIC site.

How is the community vision on this topic? I wonder that this "feedback" should be handler by R-APPs or the PMS will be responsible for that?

Answer: might be use case driven

I saw that the community not use this slack channel but this is my first attempt to start some discussion here. Also this topic can be handler during our weekly call 

we will be better (wink)
