Hi Daniel,

Thanks for answering 4, 5, and 7. So I understand that the current version has 
not implemented much. Can you share more ideas for the future development? What 
are some of the most important features related to these questions?

Regards,
Kang

1-2,6 these questions would be better answered by the VNF Validation, ICE or 
VNF Guideline people at att.
4 its manual today so nothing is done when you hit the button. In the future we 
have to see what projects define as the role of the step.
5 Today it changes the icons you can select for your vnf. There are no 
differences otherwise as far as I can tell.
7 Again nothing is done today when you hit the button. In the future the 
project would design what it should do.


Thanks,

Subject: [SDC] Questions on VNF onboarding, service design, and testing

Hi Michael and Daniel,

I have a few questions related to the design of SDC and appreciate if you could 
shed some light.

1. The document "VNF Management Requirements for ECOMP" says "The vendor must 
provide VNF packages that include a rich set of recipes, ....". What types of 
specific recipes are required? what are the corresponding language/file format? 
In the future, is it required to validate these recipes during VNF onboarding, 
and how?

2. The same document says "The VNF vendor must provide testing scripts to 
support testing." What types of testing are expected here? And how are those 
testing scripts used in SDC or ICE?

3. During VNF onboarding, does a designer do any testing before submitting the 
VNF to tester? If yes, what kind of testings the designer will do?

4. During VNF onboarding, when a tester clicks "Start Testing", what is 
actually executed in the background in the current ONAP release? In the future, 
does this step use the testing scripts provided by the vendors? And does SDC 
actually spin up a VNF instance to perform such testing?

5. During VNF onboarding, the developer is asked to select from a long list a 
category for the VNF (such as gateway, router, database, firewall, load 
balancer, ...). How does the selection affect the onboarding and subsequent 
service design? For VNFs belonging to the same category, what kind of common 
properties are required? API, Yang, DG, etc?

6. In the future, do we also need to onboard a PNF and/or the associated 
recipes? If yes, how will it be different from onboarding a VNF?

7. After a service is designed and passed to a tester, what specific testing is 
actually executed when the button "Start testing" is clicked? In the ideal 
future, do we expect ONAP to spin up the entire service in a sandbox to perform 
testing?


Regards,
Kang
