artifactType

M

1

String

Specifies the artifact type. One of following values can be chosen: "helm_chart", "helmfile", "crd", "terraform"

artifactId

M

1

String

Reference to a DeploymentArtifact. It can refer to URI or file path. 

deploymentOrder

M

0..1

Integer

Specifies the deployment stage that the DeploymentArtifact belongs to. A lower value specifies that the DeploymentArtifact belongs to an earlier deployment stage, i.e. needs to be installed prior to DeploymentArtifact with higher deploymentOrder values. If not specified, the deployment of the DeploymentArtifact can be done in arbitrary order and decided by the orchestrator.

lifecycleParameters

M

0..N

String

The list of parameters that can be overridden at deployment time (e.g., the list of parameters in the values.yaml which can be overridden at deployment time)

trunkMode

M

0..1

”false” | ”true”

If not present or  set to”false”, means that this interface shall connect to single network. If set to ”true” then the network interface shall be a trunk interface (connects to multiple VLANS).

Identical to trunkMode in ETSI NFV IFA011

ipam

M

0..1

"infraProvided", "orchestrated", "userManaged"

The default value ("infraProvided") means that the CNI specifies how IPAM is done and assigns the IP address to the pod interface.

interfaceRedundancy

M

0..1

"infraProvided", "activePassiveBond", "activeActiveBond", "activePassiveL3", "activeActiveL3",
 ”bondCni”,
"Left", "Right"

”infraProvided” means that the application sees one vNIC but that the infrastruture provides redundant access to the network via both switch planes. ”Left” and ”right” indicates a vNIC connected non-redundantly to the network via one specific (left or right) switchplane. All other attributes indicates a mated vNIC pair in the Pod, one connecting to the network via left switchplane and the other connecting to the network via the right switchplane, and with application using them together as a redundant network interface using a particular redundancy method that need to be accomodated in the node infrastructure.
"activeActiveBond": The bonded left/right links must be part of a multi-chassis LAG in active-active mode
"activePassiveBond": Interfaces bonded in active-passive mode in the application with move of bond MAC address. No specific requirements on DC fabric.
"activePassiveL3":  Move of application IP address
"activeActiveL3": Anycast/ECMP
”bondCni” ; the mated pair network interfaces are used via a 3rd bond cni based network interface.
