Add Entries to ESR System Info List and ESR VNFM Lists
This first section of the guide will involve adding values to AAI under the following 3 paths:
...
For the purposes of this guide, the VNFM Simulator will be used as the VNFM throughout. You will need to edit the below CURLs in order to match your specific VNFM's requirements, if using one other than the VNFM Simulator.
Step 1:
Exec into any pod within your ONAP deployment that is connected to the primary ONAP network. This will give you access to using the internal service hostnames.
Step 2:
Send the following CURL to add the AAI Cloud Infrastructure ESR System Info List Entry. Ensuring you alter the values to match your deployment's AAI Data:
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
curl -X PUT -H 'Accept: application/json' -H 'Authorization: Basic YWFpQGFhaS5vbmFwLm9yZzpkZW1vMTIzNDU2IQ==' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -H 'X-FromAppId:12' -H 'X-TransactionId: 12' https://aai.onap:8443/aai/v15/cloud-infrastructure/cloud-regions/cloud-region/CloudOwner/regionOne/esr-system-info-list/esr-system-info/vnfmSimulator -d '{"name": "vnfmSimulatorName", "system-type": "simulator", "vimId": "myCloud", "vendor": "EST", "version": "V1.0", "certificateUrl": "", "url": "http://so-vnfm-simulator.onap:9093/vnflcm/v1/", "user-name": "vnfm", "password": "password1$"}' -k |
Step 3:
Next you will need to send the following 2 CURLs in order to add entries into the AAI External System ESR VNFM List:
...
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
curl -X PUT -H 'Accept: application/json' -H 'Authorization: Basic YWFpQGFhaS5vbmFwLm9yZzpkZW1vMTIzNDU2IQ==' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -H 'X-FromAppId:12' -H 'X-TransactionId: 12' https://aai.onap:8443/aai/v15/external-system/esr-vnfm-list/esr-vnfm/vnfmSimulator/esr-system-info-list/esr-system-info/vnfmSimulatorId -d '{"esr-system-info-id": "vnfmSimulatorId", "type": "simulator", "user-name": "vnfm", "password": "password1$", "system-type": "simulator", "service-url": "http://so-vnfm-simulator.onap:9093/vnflcm/v1"}' |
Step 4:
Take note of the "system-type" and "type" values you have added with these CURLs. This will be used at a later stage when creating your VF in SDC.
Onboard a VNF package along with a Network Service CSAR into SDC.
A video demonstration of this process "Onboarding ETSI Based NS" can be found here: SO NFVO NS Onboarding and LCM Demonstrations
It is recommended that you view this video before/alongside this section of the guide.
Step 1:
Login to the ONAP Portal. (Link: https://portal.api.simpledemo.onap.org:30225/ONAPPORTAL/login.htm (where "portal.api.simpledemo.onap.org" is set as the IP of your VM/host of your Portal component.)
Login: cs0008
Password: demo123456!
Step 2:
Select the SDC App. It is possible that your browser will block the scripts run by the Portal, you will need to enable them if it does.
Step 3:
Follow the onboarding guide below:
Onboarding your VNF:
1: Click the “ONBOARD” tab near the top of the window.
2: Create a “VLM” if you have not created a "VLM" before.
- From the “ONBOARD” page, click create VLM.
- Enter name and description, then select create.
- Click on the plus button beside Entitlement Pool.
- Add Name and Manufacturing Reference Number, then click save.
- Click on the plus button beside License Key Groups.
- Add Name and select type, then click save.
- Click on the plus button beside Feature Groups.
- In the general tab, add name, Description and Part Number. Move to the Entitlements Pools tab, select the entitlement pool you just created and click the rightward arrow. Move to the License Key Group tab, select the license key group you just created and click the rightward arrow. Once these three things are done, click save.
- Click on the plus button beside License Agreement.
- Add Name and select License Term. Next move to the Feature Groups tab, select the Feature Group you just created and click the rightward arrow. Lastly click save.
- On the overview page, select submit in the top right corner of the screen.
- Enter a commit comment and click Commit & Submit.
...
- First, give your VF a name you will remember, as we will be using this in the following section, then click "Create" in the top-right hand corner.
- You will need to edit the properties of the VF in order to add a property value, that will be required at a later point.
- Go to the “Properties Assignment” tab on the left-hand side, then select your VF on the right-hand side.
- Now go to the "Inputs" tab within the "Properties Assignment”.
- Find the "nf_type" input and enter a value matching the value you entered for "system-type" and "type" in the previous ESR Entries section.
- Click "Save" in the top-right of the "Properties Assignment” tab and then you can Certify your VF, by clicking "Certify" in the top-right of the VF Page.
Creating/Configuring your SDC Service:
1: In the “HOME” tab of the SDC ONAP Portal, hover over the “ADD” square and select “ADD SERVICE”. Fill in the required fields, select the "Category" "Network Service" and press “Create” in the top right-hand corner.
...
4: Finally you can click "Certify" in the top right hand corner, followed by "Distribute". Your Service will now distributed across ONAP.
Onboarding your Network Service to ETSI Catalog through UUI:
This next small section (Onboarding your NS through UUI) can also been seen in the "Onboarding ETSI Based NS" video mentioned earlier.
Step 1:
Go to the following link, in order to access the UUI Portal: https://msb.api.simpledemo.onap.org:30283/iui/usecaseui/#/home (where "msb.api.simpledemo.onap.org" is set as the IP of your VM/host of your UUI component.)
Step 2:
Click "Package Management", you will be brought to the "NS" tab, you should see your Service name in the list. Simply click the "Operation button" on the right hand side of your Service in order to onboard it into the ETSI Catalog.
Step 3:
Wait for the confirmation that your Network Service has been Onboarded Successfully.
Triggering the ETSI NFVO NS LCM Functionality
The next section of this guide will go through the actual triggering of the ETSI NFVO NS LCM Functionalities in the following order: Create, Instantiate, Terminate and then Delete.
...
It is recommended that you view the "ETSI Based NS Orchestration Demo" video before/alongside this section of the guide.
Create NS
Step 1:
First you will need to retrieve the NSD ID from the ETSI Catalog Database in order to populate the Create Network Service CURL. The ETSI Catalog Database will be found within the Modeling DB container.
Log into the ETSI Catalog Database and retrieve the data from the "catalog_nspackage" table. The value under the column "NSPACKAGEID" will be the NSD ID required as part of the Create Network Service CURL.
Step 2:
Exec into any pod within your ONAP deployment that is connected to the primary ONAP network. This will give you access to using the internal service hostnames.
Step 3:
Send the following Create Network Service CURL Command, ensuring your deployment's Global Customer ID (from AAI) and your NSDID (from ETSI Catalog Database) replace the values within the <>:
...
After this step has been completed you should log into the Marie-Db-Galera-0 Pod on your ONAP deployment, then connect to the "NFVO" database. Retrieving all data from the "ns_inst" table will show that your initial NS has been created.
Instantiate NS
Step 1:
Next you will need to create a JSON file on the pod, which you are exec'ed into, named "Payload.json" in the following example.
...
In the above Payload.json, you must ensure that the "vnfProfileId" matches the VNF Descriptor ID found in the VNF CSAR which you onboarded as part of the VNF Onboarding section of this guide. The "vnfInstanceName" must match your VNF's name, and finally the "vim_id" must be replaced with your AAI Data values for your deployment's Cloud-Owner, Cloud-Region-Id and Tenant-Id respectively.
Step 2:
Next you will need to send the following CURL command in order to trigger the instantiation of the Network Service. Ensure that you add the NS Instance ID received in the Create NS response to the URL Path (replacing <NS_INSTANCE_ID>), and match the Global Customer ID as before:
...
Once the full instantiation has been completed, reconnect to the "NFVO" database, within the Marie-Db-Galera-0 pod on your ONAP deployment. Retrieving all data from the "ns_inst" table again, you should see that the "STATUS" field for your NS has changed to "INSTANTIATED".
Terminate NS
Step 1:
Send the following CURL command in order to trigger the Termination of the Network Service. Ensure that you add the NS Instance ID received in the Create NS response to the URL Path (replacing <NS_INSTANCE_ID>):
...
Once the full termination has been completed, reconnect to the "NFVO" database, within the Marie-Db-Galera-0 pod on your ONAP deployment. Retrieving all data from the "ns_inst" table again, you should see that the "STATUS" field for your NS has changed back to "NOT_INSTANTIATED".
Delete NS
Step 1:
Finally send the following CURL command in order to trigger the Deletion of the Network Service. Ensure that you add the NS Instance ID received in the Create NS response to the URL Path (replacing <NS_INSTANCE_ID>):
...
Once the full deletion has been completed, reconnect to the "NFVO" database, within the Marie-Db-Galera-0 pod on your ONAP deployment. Retrieving all data from the "ns_inst" table again, you should no longer be able to see the NS Instance in the NS_INST table.
