NONRTRIC

  • ONAP:
    • tasks are now M4 ready (but not yet passed) 
    • Thanks to Samsung team especially for help with OOM and CSIT tests
      • Need to add more CSIT - and probably should use robot framework ... 
      • Also need to improve commenting & descriptions in JIRA! 
    • Need to improve documentation 
  • OSC: 
    • Starting work on A1 Enrichment Information coordination function - will be very simple initially! 
    • Need to work on a simple rApp catalog  - Cherry reqmnt from RSAC (AT&T)
      • Added to backlog 
      • Will likely leverage existing work in ONAP ... 
    •  Will soon starting testing A1 functions from ONAP 
      • All documentation will also need to be updated! 
  • Cannot work on A1-P v2.0 yet - 60 day IPR cool-off period is not yet complete. Initial code ready but cannot be pushed yet. 
  • Samsung requesting clarity on how to config with configMap vs Consul etc 
    • John Keeney (Ericsson EST)

      • Configuring using consul was previously supported when A1 Policy Management Service was optionally deployable as a DCAE service in OSC.
        Now in ONAP A1 Policy management is deployed as a standalone Service, so Consul is alot more difficult to set up (and would add a deployment-time hard requirement for Consul/DCAE configuration)
        When K8S ConfigMaps are used the functionality that would be provided by Consul is also not needed
        So, Consul/CBS is still possible but not configured or tested in ONAP - k8s configmap should be used instead.

      • Suggestion ConfigMap does not allow dynamic update in ONAP ... (Note: 23/9/20 Clarified that this works as expected after a short delay)

OAM

  • Martin Skorupski 
    • Still struggling with 3GPP copyright issues .... 
  • RIC Dashboard: No update
  • Mentioned the need to examine test coverage in RIC dashboard
    • John Keeney (Ericsson EST) Also need to work on test coverage in NON-RT-RIC dashboard ... Of course backend (Java) is easy, but unsure about the graphical parts ... 

SIM

  • Alex Stancu
    • E2 SIM: Ron is adding E2 SIM files today (?) so can really make progress now 
    • O1 SIM: Need a new JIRA ticket for new VESS version
