This page describes how to get the release A version of NonRTRIC up and running locally with two separate NearRT-RIC simulator docker containers.

All four components of the NonRTRIC repo run inside docker containers , and communicate via a docker network. Details of the architecture can be found in the link: Release A.

...

• Download the nonrtric repo: 

     git clone "https://gerrit.o-ran-sc.org/r/nonrtric" -b Amber

• For local testing, To support local test with two separate NearRT-RIC simulator instances the following modifications must be done:  
  • change the 'a1ControllerBaseUrl' in application.yaml file of policy-agent to http://a1-controller-container:8181 (The current URL http://sdnc.onap:8282 is used in Kubernetes-based ONAP deployment).

  cd

  • vi nonrtric/policy-agent/config/application.yaml
    
    

  • replace application_configuration.yaml of policy-agent with the following content:

          vi nonrtric/policy-agent/config/application_configuration.yaml

{
   "config": {
      "//description": "Application configuration",
      "ric": [
            {
               "name": "ric1",
               "baseUrl": "http://nearRtRic-sim1:8085/",  
               "managedElementIds": [
                  "kista_1",
                  "kista_2"
               ]
            },
            {
               "name": "ric2",
               "baseUrl": "http://nearRtRic-sim2:8085/",
               "managedElementIds": [
                  "kista_3",
                  "kista_4"
               ]
            }
         ]
      }
}

• Build the code and create docker images. 

  cd ../..nonrtric
  mvn clean install
  

Run A1 Controller Docker Container

• A1 Controller must be started first to set up docker network
• Change directory to: 

  cd nonrtric/sdnc-a1-controller/oam/installation/src/main/yaml

• Run docker container using the command below and wait until this message appears 'Healthcheck Passed in XX seconds'. 

  docker-compose up a1-controller

• The Karaf logs of A1 controller can be seen using the following commands: 

  docker exec -it a1-controller-container sh
  cd opt/opendaylight/data/log/
  tail -f karaf.log

...

Run Near-RT-RIC Simulator Docker ContainerContainers

• Run Start two docker container containers using this commandfollowing commands: 

  docker run -p 81818085:8085 --network=nonrtric-docker-net --name=ric1 o-ran-sc/near-rt-ric-simulator:1.0.01-SNAPSHOT
  

• Change directory to:  

  cd nonrtric/near-rt-ric-simulator/ric-plt/a1

• Put an example policy_type inside the near-rt-ric-simulator by running this curl command:

  curl -X PUT -v "http://localhost:8181/policytypes/STD_QoSNudging_0.2.0" -H "accept: application/json" 
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data-binary @policy_type_STD_QoSNudging_0.2.0.json
