2021-01-27: John Keeney

2021-02-03: Martin Skorupski

Status reports:

• Non-RT-RIC: John Keeney 
  • Maintenance release: No major functional change envisioned - most small changed & documentation
    
    • Examining which functions to cherry pick from master→cherry
  • Dawn requirements planning ongoing
    • Mostly evolution of Cherry functions
    • Beginning to examine rApp platform & packaging - and overlap with "common app" activities
    • Also continuing to look at requirements for R1
  • ONAP Honolulu (A1 Policy functions)
    • Incremental evolution continues

• OAM: Martin Skorupski
  • No plans for Cherry Mantenance Release
  • Please see Release C press release (above).
  • Will continue discussions on new end-to-end "control loop" use case with RSAC.
    
    • John Keeney  Martin Skorupski Current O-RU recovery has no A1 aspect, and adding A1 would be challenging. Can use the usecase as a requirements-driving usecase for a simple rApp instead.

• SIM: Alex Stancu
  
  • No major update
    • All OSC projects need to look at CII badging questions - ref toc 06/01/2020  https://wiki.o-ran-sc.org/display/TOC -
      • See Core Infrastructure Initiative (CII) Badging in OSC.

• SMO: @Mahesh Jethanandani
  • No update - need to confirm with Mahesh Jethanandani if this time is suitable.

Latest updates related to modeling

• (Video @ 00:08:00 in recording) 
• Wiki page https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/ONAP+Information+Model+-+Clean+and+approved+models+across+ONAP+releases
  • Has latest updates & landing page - "Clean" versions
    • e.g. Ves 7.2 update for CM notifications etc
  • ONAP modelling subcommittee: https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/Modeling+sub-committee 
    • Current activities tracked at https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/Modeling+Current+Activity+Status
    • Backlog etc: https://wiki.onap.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=84669119
• Martin Skorupski Note new O-RAN Alliance new Workgroups "WG10" to handle OAM activities
  • Including O1 & M-Plane (Partly driven by 3GPP for O1 and IETF (OFH) for M-Plane)
• Andy Mayer - How does O-RAN SMO map to ONAP?
  • Martin Skorupski John Keeney Not directly - very little detail in O-RAN documents - mainly requirements for SMO in Architecture & usecases. However Non-RT-RIC is being defined, as part of SMO, but it remains unclear what is a functional architecture for SMO. 
  • Andy Mayer Maybe we should try document some assumptions/requirements for SMO to help steer ONAP.
    • John Keeney OSC SMO/OAM/NONRTRIC should help here. Andy Mayer but O-RAN Alliance should drive requirements etc ....
• @? Which 3GPP release forms basis for OAM models? R17?
  • R16.5 seems to be the basis. Ongoing study & input needed to identify updates in versions.
