Recording

Notes:

Housekeeping:

  • Reminder from previous weeks:

  • O-RAN has declared that recording are kept for 2 weeks only. Does this apply to us? 

    • Is this a requirement, a privacy issue or a cost issue?

    • Not sure - the recording storage quota that we use is currently full - so we may need to delete old cloud recording?

    • All past recording are also available as files uploaded to the wiki pages - May be a  storage issue later, but no plans to delete as yet.

OSC Project roundup:

NONRTRIC (@John Keeney (Ericsson EST))

SIM (@Alex Stancu)

OAM (@Martin Skorupski)

  • Short update from O-RAN SMO MVP discussions

  • Working with WG5 & WG4 for O-DU, O-CU and O-RU (esp models)

  • Working on OSC D integration

    • Also working on increasing Netconf connections scalability (Multiple (3) ODLs with a message router between them)

  • Prep for O-RAN F2F

O-DU (@Hariom Gupta (Deactivated))

  • VES PNF Registration request support now merged.

  • Working on edit-conf - Almost done

  • Need to talk with O-DU-high team for O-DU high/low interaction

  • Will likely face the issue identified by @Alex Stancu &@Martin Skorupski above

  • No update on OSC lab access

Sample O1 Messages

  • NK Shankar: Where can we find sample messages for O1 (PM, FM, CM)?

    • Needed to verify in ONAP SON use case - Especially if overlapping related work happening in OSC.

      • For O-DU see OSC D use case sample - but may not be useful.

      • For O-RU see open-fronthaul specs - but likely need 3GPP aligned versions - hopefully progress in November train specs.

      • VES Messages: Examples already std compliant in ONAP.

    • Shankar: In addition to formats, might need know more / contribute insights about the semantics - e.g. FM Alarm lifecycles. May be implementation dependent though ... 

      • @Martin Skorupski Please write down any assumptions / discussions ongoing ...

Helm charts / Docker Compose etc

  • @John Keeney (Ericsson EST) working on Docker-compose & helm charts for OSC D +

  • Want to have BOTH docker-compose and helm charts for deploying functions. @Martin Skorupski Agree

    • @John Keeney (Ericsson EST) Will maintain both ... and each function in nonrtric have their own docker images - and are pretty standalone - so are easy to deploy individually or in different combinations.

  • @John Keeney (Ericsson EST) Would like to maintain multiple flavours of helm charts for nonrtric in nonrtric repo, and then reuse in it/dep repo - but cannot find an elegant way to reuse charts from other repos without copying the entire repo ... Will continue trying to find a solution. Will be easier when have write access to it/dep repo.

ONAP Milestones

  • David McBride: ONAP M1 passed. M2 due June 17. Requirement already open for ONAP Jakarta - via ONAP Requirement sub-committee

Configuring SONAR rules in OSC (@Former user (Deleted))

  • Issue with hotspot false positive Sonar rule hit.

  • @John Keeney (Ericsson EST) See above - cannot edit rules on a per project basis.

  • @Former user (Deleted) Cannot add annotations to workaround security rule. Overall Sonar rules need some work ....
