OSC Project roundup:

News from OSC TOC call this week

https://lf-o-ran-sc.atlassian.net/wiki/display/TOC/#ORANSCTechnicalOversightCommittee(TOC)
- Reminder for PTLs to improve F-Release progress reporting
- Seems no interactions planned for OSC in 5G SuperBlueprint activities until G release
- O-RAN f2f in June will be virtual

NONRTRIC (John Keeney (Ericsson EST))

As per last week:
- Working on e2e PM data - making it available over pre-R1 DME (OSC NONRTRIC) Information Coordination Service)
  - Making good progress - File-based almost working, and lots of parts of event-based working. Lots of integration.
- Working on PoC Service Exposure - with a view towards R1 (3GPP CAPIF TS 23.222)
  - Will update more as this matures - still very early - hopefully a demo in coming weeks
- Working on getting Repos set up - e.g. lots of Jenkins jobs.
  - Slow, but making good progress.
  - Thanks to the LF team!

SIM (Alex Stancu)

No major update

OAM (Martin Skorupski)

No major update ... working away on dev tasks - Ref OAM JIRAs

O-DU (Hariom Gupta Vidhu)

Code completed for F release.
Still struggling with integration - VES Collector & DMaaP.
- Might help?: https://docs.onap.org/projects/onap-dcaegen2/en/latest/sections/services/ves-http/stnd-defined-validation.html
- Maybe a shared screen session might help - more eyes might spot something simple ?

RSAC/SMO (David Kinsey [AT&T])

No update this week

OSC Integration / INT (James Li )

OTF demo timeline ....
- Seems to be a networking issue?
- Suggestion to use a NonRTRIC usecase as the demo/motivating use case?
  - John Keeney (Ericsson EST) We don't have the skills or resources to do much with OTF in the short-term, but if the OTF want to use this use case then that's fine.
- Will likely be discussed at RSAC call tomorrow.
  - https://lists.o-ran-sc.org/g/main/viewevent?repeatid=17297&eventid=1442491&calstart=2022-04-07
Working on improving Bedminster Lab
- https://lists.o-ran-sc.org/g/discuss/message/492
- Will work with PTLs for documentation etc, - installation, operation etc. for integration tests.

SMO Integration Charts (Sebastien Determe, ChrisC)

No update this week.

ONAP Use Cases Update (N.K. Shankaranarayanan)

Presented at ITU Focus Group on Autonomous Networks (FG-AN) workshop
- 7th virtual meeting of ITU FG AN
  - https://www.itu.int/en/ITU-T/focusgroups/an/Documents/Meeting_announcement_March2022.pdf
- Presented previous DTF topic on Simulations, with some updates for RANSIM - as discussed at this meeting series.
  - Material: https://extranet.itu.int/sites/itu-t/focusgroups/an/input/FGAN-I-228-R1.pptx, ITU account required.
  - Positive feedback
Extending ONAP RANSim with addition A1 & Netconf support etc (Vishal Varate)
- See slides & recording from last week
- Discussing Simulator extensions Vishal & John Keeney (Ericsson EST)
- Need to flesh out objectives for Kohn release requirements etc ... ongoing
Need to work on preparing requirements etc for Kohn release

ONAP/OSC 3GPP Copyright issues (N.K. Shankaranarayanan, Magnus Buhrgard )

ONAP TSC agreed to submit LS to 3GPP - awaiting formal response.
Informal feedback from 3GPP is that we should list how & where 3GPP specs are being used/needed in ONAP.
- Yang models used in a few places, but not modified.
- Obviously try to avoid re-distributing or re-publishing spec material verbatim in an extractable way
  - But what about re-generation of a spec document? e.g. query an interface for its model?
  - What about code generated from spec material (e.g. openapi, yang, asn1)
  - What about modified specs?

Update from ONAP Release status etc (David McBride)

ONAP Jakarta M4 approved last week
- 1 week slip in Release date
- Release candidate preparation ongoing
ONAP Kohn process have started: "M0 Kick off 7 Apr 2022 )
Discussions ongoing with ONAP-ODL release cadence / alignment in K release.
- Upcoming issue with non-backward-compatible change in ODL (Restconf format RFC 8040 vs Biermann pre-spec version)
  - https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/Switch+from+Biermann-RestConf+to+RFC8040+interface
  - No one seems to know who is using the older Restconf versions so changeover will be tricky

Q/A

John Keeney (Ericsson EST) What is the status of the VES-based PM Measurement reporting?
- Any update on when the discussions might kick off in O-RAN Alliance ... we may be getting a bit far ahead in implementing support for this before it is agreed in O-RAN?
- How much / any of this is proposed for 3GPP?
- Need to be careful to differentiate Trace/Streaming from event-based PM reporting.
- David Kinsey [AT&T] is main driver on CRs for this ... Will ask for a status update.
