OSC Project roundup:
News from OSC TOC call this week
https://lf-o-ran-sc.atlassian.net/wiki/display/TOC/#ORANSCTechnicalOversightCommittee(TOC)
Discussions about SCCL / SCP licensing ... continues.
Push towards the finishing line for E Release
Aim for branching/completion ~ 7-15 Dec
Aim for release vote Dec 15.
Press Release preparation will start soon
NONRTRIC (@John Keeney (Ericsson EST))
Working on O-DU-Slicing–Use-case "Link Monitor" rApp
Many different possible versions of App implementation depending on which SMO functions to use
e.g. 2 different VES formats, 2 different netconf/restconf models, micro-service-based, policy-based, dmaap vs kafka vs Info-job, etc etc
Thanks to @Alex Stancu & @Martin Skorupski for help towards O-DU SIM and SDNC (& models) for rApp.
Still a bit unsure where to get some IDs etc. Likely hard-coded for E Release
Propose to have several versions - with very simple (partly hardcoded) logic - mainly as requirements drivers for NONRTRIC platform functions
E Release prep.
Documentation, branching, version upticks, re-testing, deployment guides, release notes, etc.
SIM (@Alex Stancu)
O-DU Simulator for Slicing use case is ready
Continue working with @John Keeney (Ericsson EST) @Yennifer Chacon etc re Slicing rApp
OAM (@Martin Skorupski)
Working towards end-to-end demo for O-DU Slicing use-case.
Small bug/issue with ODL - issue with namespaces in netconf vs restconf - workaround available.
O-DU (@Hariom Gupta @Vidhu (Deactivated) )
@Vidhu (Deactivated)
O-DU function under review
@Martin Skorupski Struggling a little with the SMO VES collector to collect the O-DU PM event
Can additional fields be added to the VES common header (for PNF registration event)? - Will not be validated so discarded ... unclear?
Also some fields may not have values (empty sting)
@Martin Skorupski will try validate a sample offline.
RSAC/SMO (@Former user (Deleted))
OSC Integration / INT (@James Li )
Will work with each PTL for E Release
Security & License Scan
Branching
E Release achievements
A1 validation - in Prof Ray's Taiwan lab (near-RT-RIC & Non-RT-RIC) - Integration tests
Will work on this during this week
Primary Integration lab for E Release will be the Bedmister lab ... with Taiwan lab still being set up
@John Keeney (Ericsson EST) Which functions will be present in the Integration alb set-up? Pre-configured for some scenario / use case?
What if multiple scenarios - in the same lab? .
Probably need to separate integration environment into a "vanilla" deployment - with some way of deploying/loading a use case scenario deployment - then unloading & loading others?
e.g. using ONAP Python test library, or OTF?
ONAP SMO deployment options
O-RU app update: https://lf-o-ran-sc.atlassian.net/browse/NONRTRIC-613 https://jira.o-ran-sc.org/browse/NONRTRIC-609
A1 Simulator chart update support use case automation using scripts. Will talk offline with @John Keeney (Ericsson EST) @Björn Magnusson https://lf-o-ran-sc.atlassian.net/browse/NONRTRIC-609 https://gerrit.o-ran-sc.org/r/c/it/dep/+/7167
First draft of Python test SDK (in PR#2 https://gerrit.o-ran-sc.org/r/c/it/dep/+/7015) - uses ONAP Python library for ONAP component verification, with O-RAN updates.
ONAP Use cases etc (@N.K. Shankaranarayanan)
@N.K. Shankaranarayanan
O1 VES consolidaion
Created this JIRA https://jira.onap.org/browse/DCAEGEN2-2987 https://jira.onap.org/browse/DCAEGEN2-2986 as a placeholder to converge on VES formats for SON use case. Hoping to leverage existing work.
Target ONAP Jakarta to consolidate this
Discuss further at ONAP SON use case call tomorrow (https://lists.onap.org/g/onap-meetings/viewevent?repeatid=32219&eventid=1292334&calstart=2021-12-02 ) 12:00UTC
O1 models over R1 (@N.K. Shankaranarayanan)
O1 Models (including R1) on primary & secondary yang models
Ref O-RAN Alliance discussion at O-RAN WG2:
May be difficult to maintain mappings to/from primary<->secondary models
Alot more discussion needed in WG10 first probably ....
Especially need to decide if SMO model or Network is source of truth (e.g. with / without NCMP in ONAP)
How to maintain consistency/transactions between model(s) & network - especially if across network functions. How to achieve rollback?
Q/A
@Timo Perala (Nokia) Encouraging submissions to LFN DTF event in 10-13 Jan 2022. Call open now - Dec 3rd (ish ).
Proposal for LFN DTF discussion topic @N.K. Shankaranarayanan
Discussion of ONAP / OSC Simulators.
Out of time for other topics
