• Status 
  • Plug Fest 
  • Snezka Focus 
  • RI
    • Cookbook progress

      • https://github.com/cntt-n/CNTT/pull/535/
  • RC
    • Deployment and Compliance Validation (Cedric) 
    • POD10 deployments & validation issues 
      • (Kaspars reviewing) https://jira.opnfv.org/browse/AIRSHIP-15 (blocking issue)
        • The OPNFV manifests (cntt type) need to be updated to use the v2.1 endpoint, similarly to this change: https://review.opendev.org/#/c/686370/
        • The change needs to be reflected in the CNTT manifests here: https://github.com/opnfv/airship/blob/master/type/cntt/software/config/endpoints.yaml#L731
      • (New Featrure - ?) https://jira.opnfv.org/browse/AIRSHIP-16 (major)
        • My understanding is that live migration / resize server are not currently supported by the OpenStack-Helm charts.  I’m sure that team would be open to a feature request or contribution of this functionality!
    • (Kaspars reviewing) https://jira.opnfv.org/browse/AIRSHIP-17 (major)
      • The Neutron workers are exposed by the OpenStack-Helm Neutron chart:  https://opendev.org/openstack/openstack-helm/src/branch/master/neutron/values.yaml#L1770-L1771
        • The cntt type is probably the most appropriate place to override this, but I’ll let Kaspars weigh in.
    • RM/RA requirements extraction (Rajesh, Sridhar) 
      • Followed by Manifest Validations
      • Tune & Re-deploy, if needed
    • Chapter Progress by Authorsper recent PRs created
    • CIRV repo - cirv-perftest, cirv-functional, OPNFV Test DatabasePRs/Issues
    • VNF & Storage Questions (discussion needed & path-forward)
      • Can we run SampleVNF and FuncTest VNF connectivity/validation?  (Owner?)
      • Owner to review StorePerf and start that work in POD10
      • Prototype Plan Status - is this something we can use today in POD10/15? (Trevor)

        1. Prepare automation harness - connectivity, validation (POD10)? – Cedric?
           1. e.g. functest-smoke-cntt was just created. neutron-tempest-plugin-api is already conformed with the current API section.
        2. Create Test Plan
        3. Finalize Test Harness/Framework
        4. Perform Manifest Validations

         • Strategy

           1. Use POD10 for Network Intensive. 

           2. Measure stats related to the NFVi datapath capacity.

           3. Goal will be to demonstrate full automation of the environment (continuous deployment) with test cases with some useful test results (continuous testing).
           4. Status? Then look at adding compute and storage intensive VNFs and identify test cases that map back to CNTT specified capabilities.(Luc, Sridhar, Al, Trevor - creating more detailed plan?).
      2. Testing
         1. Create Test Plan
         2. Finalize Test Harness/Framework
         3. Results Collection & Normalization
