• O1 Yang file test & validation function being added to gerrit. (Please review)
  • See postman scripts for manipulating fronthaul nodes (admin state)

  • Will chat with Martin Skorupski offline

ONAP - OSC

• Swaminathan S Discussed Use cases last week - see
  • Michela Bevilacqua [Ericsson] provided some updates - added directly in minutes in   ONAP 2020-11-04 Meeting notes (ONAP/O-RAN-SC/SMO - Meeting & (See 2020-11-04 Meeting notes - Joint OAM / NONRTRIC / SIM / SMO SCRUM meeting)
    • 5G NRM was not a use case in Guilin. Plans for H release?
    • Swaminathan S will check again these use cases & which carry over to Honolulu. Good to focus on the use cases that are directly relevant
  • Martin Skorupski Swaminathan S Suggest a separate page for tracking
  • Swaminathan S CPS interface is currently XPath based & tricky to build these queries. Need an intermediate layer to do this. Claudio Coletti [DTAG] Working on this abstraction layer. Martin Skorupski Will likely be tricky to do this abstraction layer might need some domain knowledge (e.g. ID formats etc). Suggest a use case driven adoption going forward.
  • Swaminathan S Slicing use case: Suggest anyone who's interested in slicing in ONAP attend ONAP Slicing usecase call. Martin Skorupski Likely that slicing needs to be better defined - use case driven.  But not much slicing in OSC as yet.
  • Swaminathan S Where there is overlap with use cases suggest bring this to ONAP Requirements Sub committee too. Michela Bevilacqua [Ericsson] might be able to help here?

App Packaging in ONAP Zu Qiang & Michela Bevilacqua [Ericsson]

• (Started at approx 00:34 in recording)
• 
• Presentation on xNF onboarding in ONAP
  • Discussed VNF/PNF packaging formats etc.
  • Discussion on secured vs unsecured packages - depending on .csar vs .zip versions.
    • Issue might arise with partial signature e.g. if part of a package is not valid.
    • Kamel Idir Will a format different from ONAP be used? Mahesh Jethanandani Will follow Sol004.
    • Zu Qiang Clarified the difference between validation at onboarding time vs deployment time
  • Michela Bevilacqua [Ericsson] Will a manifest be used for OSC package format  .. Mahesh Jethanandani Yes.
• John Keeney (Ericsson EST) Hopefully there will be some alignment between formats and packaging for apps and CNFs
  • Michela Bevilacqua [Ericsson] Kamel Idir Should be ok if ETSI format is followed

Q&A

• O-DU O1 Model: Vidhu Working on - trying to bring in some changes: Request Martin Skorupski & Former user (Deleted) to review.
  • Vidhu Also planning to add IP+Port etc. Will update the relevant JIRA ticket soon.
