TOSCA VNF Validation Status Updates

• Kanagaraj Manickam presented an overview of the TOSCA user story and development.
• Current work will integrate the VTP with SDC, to allow tests to automatically run when on boarding a new VNF.  
  • Team will work on a plan to expose a CLI that can run the VTP tests directly (compliance & validation).  This should completed by Monday, August 12.
• Output format:
  • Planning to crate the results archive at the same "place" where the "script" was run (see above).
• Current work plans are to support both the open source VNF Manager (part of VFC) and a vendor specific VNF Manager
  • Test scripts will "handle" registration of the vendor specific VNFM, before starting the testing.
  • If a vendor specific VNFM is used, how does this impact the "badge" as the VNF does require the VNFM to run?
    • A badge / listing will list specific requirements for the VNF (i.e. a vendor specific VNFM abc with version xyz is required).
    • TOSCA output will capture this information in a way that can be parsed by the Dovetail portal.

HEAT VNF Validation Status Updates

• Still working on items for last week (things are still moving forward).

OPNFV (What is expected from who & when)

• Per the current user stories (HEAT & TOSCA) results will no longer be generated by Dovetail tool chain, what specific results format is required by the portal.
• Request Dovetail provide a results requirement / template / information model / interface definition.  This could be maintained as part of their project and would be useful as the scope / usage of the portal continues to expand.
• Dovetail meets are Wednesday mornings, 9am EDT (https://wiki.opnfv.org/display/meetings/Dovetail)

• Weitao Gao to work with Dan Xu to discuss / prepare the above documentation.

Any other business

• Next Face-to-face CNTT meeting is 2 days following the ONS Europe events, details.
• Discus OVP release planning during next week's meeting.
