Notes:

Housekeeping

  • For future meetings, for security reasons LF & LFN insist on passwords and/or attendees must be explicitly admitted - Already use this approach

  • Minutes will also be maintained in ONAP wiki at https://wiki.onap.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=24641575 - under the "Requirement Subcommittee" branch

Meeting Structure & Scope

  • @John Keeney (Ericsson EST) Concerns that scope might be too much for a single meeting, but we'll try, and if needed please re-raise this concern again

  • Scope:

    • OSC: Joint Community meeting for OSC OAM, NONRTRIC, SIM & SMO projects

    • OSC: Alignment between OSC OAM, NONRTRIC, SIM & SMO projects

    • Alignment & collaboration between OSC & ONAP

    • Alignment between ONAP & O-RAN

ONAP - ORAN harmonization

  • See new ONAP location for this (co-located) meeting https://wiki.onap.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=24641575  (See housekeeping above)

  • @Swaminathan S @Michela Bevilacqua [Ericsson] @Martin Skorupski Will try to assemble list of relevant requirements and usecases in ONAP Guilin and ONAP Honolulu for later discussions - to use as a basis for alignment discussions.

  • ODL

    • FYI: @Martin Skorupski @John Keeney (Ericsson EST) @Michela Bevilacqua [Ericsson] SDNC/CCSDK hoping to jump to to ODL Aluminium version in ONAP Honolulu

  • Simulators (& see SIM section below)

    • Simulator used in ONAP for Slicing Usecase (WIPRO?) - but this is not a deployment simulator - runtime only.

    • Samsung demonstrated a nearRTRIC simulator - combining OSC A1 SIM and netconf endpoint.

      • @Pawel Slowikowski Samsung also looking at CNF mock for nearRTRIC.

    • O1 simulator - based on netopeer available in Lab (see point in SIM below)

  • @Swaminathan S ONAP Slicing Usecase already has a weekly ONAP-ORAN alignment meeting on Thursdays - (follow up)

  • Some discussion of components references in pic OAM Architecture#IntegrationintoSMO

    • OOF, Policy, SO and many other parts are not currently included in OSC SMO (ONAP deployment)

    • Not currently using OOM - will hopefully move to OOM soon.

    • SDNC provides O1 CM termination - A1 controller is separate in Bronze. - Will merge in Cherry+

    • DCAE is available for VEST & data collectors.

    • Unsure of plans to include AAF, Logginc, etc

    • Portal is included (NONRTRIC control panel & nearRTRIC portal)

  • @Swaminathan S Significant overlap with ONAP OOF usecase. Good possible candidate for A1/O1 alignment use case in ONAP. Also a good candidate for alignment wrt rApps.

 

NONRTRIC

  • @Lasse Kaihlavirta @John Keeney (Ericsson EST) past issue with updating Config Maps without K8s pod restart is confirmed in ONAP.

    • Issue does not exist in OSC deployment

    • Samsung also have internal ONAP-like charts that do not have the issue

    • Issue is caused by OOM

      • Will work on this offline

SIM

  • @Alex Stancu

    • Now has access to OSC T-Lab environment. For others to get access contact Felix @Zhe Huang (Felix)

    • Lab is the main integration

    • @Mahesh Jethanandani now has a VM there for testing O1-CM YANG models. Postman scripts will be made available to access simulator.

    • All current instructions for accessing the lab are Windows-based ... working on getting connected from other OSes

    • @Martin Skorupski Still working on getting access to/from Winlab lab.
