ConfigScaleOut API Definition
Note: This is temporary documentation for M2- LCM API Guide will be updated when everything is finalized.
ConfigScaleOut
The ConfigScaleOut command is used to apply any actions on a VNF as part of a ScaleOut flow. Actions could include updating the VNF configuration or running a set of other tasks.
The ConfigScaleOut action can have multiple APP-C templates associated with it. APP-C retrieves the vf-module-name from A&AI which is used as the unique identifier to select the correct APP-C template.
APP-C creates or updates VNFC records in A&AI for the newly instantiated VM’s. The orchestration-status of the VNFC’s is set to CONFIGURED.
This action is supported via the Netconf (limited to configuration changes), Chef, and Ansible protocols.
