Subject: [opnfv-tech-discuss][opnfv-mano-wg] Need Subscription list plus 
discussions for Sept 14 VNF onbaoarding & Mapping TOSCA service to NFV{VNFD+NSD}

Hi all,
There  was a request from Margret that she cannot  get this as without joining 
opnfv-tech-list and that she and many in Polestar/S&P would prefer that we have 
a separate opnnfv-mano-wg subscription. My understanding is that this will be 
addressed by LF helpdesk. Until then I am copying the listed participants of 
MANO WG on wiki page and this is for September 14th meeting. We still have a 
week's time to get things moving.

If so can I request LF helpdesk to enable the opnfv-mano-wg subscription list.
 We do have #opnfv-mano channel that we use besides the scheduled


As part of MANO WG tasks would like to initiate debate on following items:

Like to verify with Models & Domino/parser if they would create a opnfv-mano-wg 
tags and create a Jira tickets for the  same?
[bryan] Not sure what you mean by tags or why we need to create Jira tickets. I 
recommend to avoid getting too deep into Jira for project management at the 
level that these groups work (analysis, experimentation, specification). My 
experience is that except for code dev/bug tracking, Jira brings a lot of 
overhead that I don't think we need. Outlining the work of the group at a 
high-level is fine with Jira, but let's watch out for the overhead.


1.       VNF On boarding as listed by Polestar / S&P team by Bryan

[bryan] I will add some of the aspects of this to the wiki, as I described on 
the call, including a high-level outline of a conceptual process for 
onboarding, highlighting aspects that I think are potentially in scope for 
OPNFV projects (including those underway, today). This is work that is in the 
scope of the MANO WG, since it helps draw a thread through many of the systems 
and processes that make up a MANO stack, and above (e.g. business processes 
that are outside OPNFV/OpenSource scope).
? VNF Packaging - Compare and contrast  in how JuJu and Tacker  use OpenStack 
Glance or SDN-C (ODL/ONOS/OC}  {how do they align with IFA011?}
[bryan] This analysis is underway (or at least in scope) in the Models project, 
as a test/documentation exercise. The current state of that project is setting 
up the test environment (Cloudify, Tacker, JuJu, OpenBaton, etc) to assess how 
MANO-stack projects require/support various VNF Package elements, starting with 
TOSCA-based blueprints for reference VNFs (which will become part of the OPNFV 
CI/CD inventory along with vIMS). I welcome the support of anyone that wants to 
focus on the specific question Prakash mentioned.

2. Mapping between TOSCA and NFV for using VNFD from oasis for VNFM to use 
(http://docs.oasis-open.org/tosca/tosca-nfv/v1.0/csd03/tosca-nfv-v1.0-csd03.pdf 
)
? Review how Service Descriptors from TOSCA match with NFV and if mapped 
correctly can  Template Distribution and Parsing manage this to deliver to 
orchestrators   like Heat or any controller that can support Pub/Sub via OPNFV 
project like Domino/Parser?
[bryan] VNF Package cataloging/distribution is one of the key aspects of an 
onboarding process. As mentioned AFAIK only the Domino project has been 
considering so far some of the technical approaches to blueprint/template 
distribution (along with other VNF assets). The mapping of elements (e.g. 
Service Descriptors) is part of the information model - data model analysis 
that needs to be done; work that so far is still in the SDO realm AFAICT.

3. Would like to see OPEN-O(Opera) / OpenBaton (Orchestra) to add any Jira 
tickets that will help them on IFA007, use case or API aspects that would like 
to bring to opnfv-mano-wg

Once we know JIRA tickets are established will let Bryan lead us on 1 and will 
try bring some proposal for 2 working with Domino/Parser projects and PTLS of 
Opera and Orchestra as what they will need guidance from MANO WG to support 
them.

Thanks
Prakash
