File-based RAN PM

• Where would be the "integration" point? S3?
• json schema for S3? or xsd → xml see data file collector - and pm data converter

PM Event streaming

• John Keeney  Working on a version of the PlantUML to include NONRTRIC RanPM functions
• Martin Skorupski  Would like to reuse as much as possible of NONRTRIC RanPM functions 
  • Easiest way might be to put collected/streamed XML (or JSON) into S3/Minio and can then hopefully reuse existing functions.
  • Only new part is Stream terminator → Minio/S3?

    • https://jira.onap.org/browse/INT-2177
• Update
  • CPS - how the code can be used?
    • modification of yang (subset for needed use case) to be applied and
    • other configurations (dataset as json)
    • yangs can be also injected based on SDNC (NF yangs - in this case unmodified yangs)
    • manual steps vs automation
    • CPS demo:  2023-04-04 Meeting notes - Developer Wiki - Confluence (onap.org)

        • Vishal's teams are looking to check if this is still all up to date.
      • Unclear if this is two-way (read/write config) or one way (read-only) with CM performed direct to SDNC.

  • Excellent session to make people aware / motivated about overlaps, with concrete opportunity for better alignment & engagement.
• Seshu Kumar Mudiganti We also need to concentrate on Non functional aspects, such as scalability, security, energy usage. John Keeney Those are costly. Trade off against resources available for functional aspects. Do we need to find out if there is a preference for functional vs non-functional?
• Lots of hard work to do. We will try to identify concrete follow ups.
• Lets continue on the areas we already have good alignment, & strengthen focus on newer potential areas, as described int he slides.

Still! "not ok" - how to use NETCONF YANGs from 3GPP and O-RAN

Problem Statement might be not fully understood. 

Next step: Call with Magnus Buhrgard 

After the call and some emails: Magnus it preparing a call with 3GPP SA5 representatives and then another ONAP LS to 3GPP

The topic is on the ONAP TSC agenda tomorrow: TSC 2022-09-08

• Update from Magnus Buhrgard at ONAP TSC call tomorrow
• Slides available

> Magnus wont give up
