Issues to be resolved

  1. When should scaling be done?
    1. In Dublin our primary reason for scaling will be focused on adjusting resources to the load.  As load increases or decreases, the VNF will scale Out or In as appropriate. This can be done either manually or automatically.
    2. Other reasons for scaling may include:
      1. Upgrades
      2. VM Moves
      3. Meet with Operations to determine other reasons
  2. Which instance should be removed?
  3. Do we need to a preparation phase?
    1. Possible items to be checked in a preparation phase:
      1. Upgrade and rollback for both VNF and RAP
      2. Snapshot Saving
      3. Another ongoing scaling operation
      4. Syncronization problems between VNFM and VNF database
      5. DB Service Status
  4. Do we need a post scaling phase?
    1. Do we need additional configuration changes after VM removal? 
  5. How do we use Redistribute_Traffic?
  6. Need to build a ConfigScaleIn action and API for APPC and SDNC
  7.  Will we be able to use CDS for AutoConfiguration?
  8. How do we determine which controller to use?
