Apologies for the confusion joining the call bridge. (Bridge was reconfigured to add a password)
Please us the new updated Zoom (above) next week also! (Invites etc have been updated)
OSC Project roundup
O-RAN (O-RAN-SC) Press release for "Cherry"-Release
NONRTRIC (@John Keeney (Ericsson EST))
Maintenance release: No major functional change envisioned - most small changed & documentation
Examining which functions to cherry pick from master→cherry
Dawn requirements planning ongoing
Mostly evolution of Cherry functions
Beginning to examine rApp platform & packaging - and overlap with "common app" activities
Also continuing to look at requirements for R1
ONAP Honolulu (A1 Policy functions)
Incremental evolution continues
SMO (@Mahesh Jethanandani )
No update - need to confirm with @Mahesh Jethanandani if this time is suitable.
SIM (@Alex Stancu)
No major update
All OSC projects need to look at CII badging questions - ref toc 06/01/2020 https://lf-o-ran-sc.atlassian.net/wiki/display/TOC/ -
See Core Infrastructure Initiative (CII) Badging in OSC.
OAM (@Martin Skorupski)
No plans for Cherry Mantenance Release
Please see Release C press release (above).
Will continue discussions on new end-to-end "control loop" use case with RSAC.
@John Keeney (Ericsson EST) @Martin Skorupski Current O-RU recovery has no A1 aspect, and adding A1 would be challenging. Can use the usecase as a requirements-driving usecase for a simple rApp instead.
ONAP - OSC
Latest update from ONAP Modelling @Andrew J Mayer
(Video @ 00:08:00 in recording)
Has latest updates & landing page - "Clean" versions
e.g. Ves 7.2 update for CM notifications etc
ONAP modelling subcommittee: https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/Modeling+sub-committee
Current activities tracked at https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/Modeling+Current+Activity+Status
Backlog etc: https://wiki.onap.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=84669119
@Martin Skorupski Note new O-RAN Alliance new Workgroups "WG10" to handle OAM activities
Including O1 & M-Plane (Partly driven by 3GPP for O1 and IETF (OFH) for M-Plane)
@Andrew J Mayer - How does O-RAN SMO map to ONAP?
@Martin Skorupski@John Keeney (Ericsson EST) Not directly - very little detail in O-RAN documents - mainly requirements for SMO in Architecture & usecases. However Non-RT-RIC is being defined, as part of SMO, but it remains unclear what is a functional architecture for SMO.
@Andrew J Mayer Maybe we should try document some assumptions/requirements for SMO to help steer ONAP.
@John Keeney (Ericsson EST) OSC SMO/OAM/NONRTRIC should help here. @Andrew J Mayer but O-RAN Alliance should drive requirements etc ....
@? Which 3GPP release forms basis for OAM models? R17?
R16.5 seems to be the basis. Ongoing study & input needed to identify updates in versions.
ONAP Usecases Update
@Swaminathan S could not attend.
Other
@Michela Bevilacqua [Ericsson] Can we invite someone to describe the new WG10 OAM workgroup?
@Martin Skorupski Still being setup .... Also discussion will happen at vF2F
Will come back with more details when we know more.
@Michela Bevilacqua [Ericsson] Would be good to have a O-RAN-related meeting at LFN-DDF meeting?
@Martin Skorupski @John Keeney (Ericsson EST) @Swaminathan S Proposal avaialbe at https://wiki.lfnetworking.org/display/LN/2021+February+Developer+Topic+Proposals#id-2021FebruaryDeveloperTopicProposals-ONAP/O-RAN/OSCAlignment-UpdatesandRoadmap
@John Keeney (Ericsson EST) Also an O-RAN vF2F - should try have some discussion there too?
@Lasse Kaihlavirta O-Cloud. Will reference implementation be done in OSC?
@John Keeney (Ericsson EST) @Martin Skorupski Possibly the INF project? Infrastructure Home @Xiaohua Zhang
@Lasse Kaihlavirta Interfaces still being defined. Any plans for simulators? e.g. O2 simulator? ... Not sure. Will check with RSAC.
@Konrad Bańka Rest based config of A1-PMS. Currently tested & working ... Will it be added in ONAP-Guilin-Maintenance-Release?
@John Keeney (Ericsson EST) In OSC Cherry ... Will check with team if t will be cherry-picked back to maintenance release
Apologies again for the mix up with the bridge password etc.
