    2. Pod15: Investigation of failed health check.
  2. Today status:
    1. Satisfied with deployments
    2. Need to confirm test runs which are enabled
    3. Want to run Prox based tests, as data plan tests. (VSPerf, NFVBench, Yardstick)
      1. Luc to check on open issues, a
2. HDV - finalize schema, build prototype
  1. Prior status:
    1. Solicited developer volunteers to help build prototype.
      1. Ram, Vinayak (NFV BU) <vinayak.ram@hpe.com> - Utilizes standard interfaces based on Redfish to query the infrastructure and get the information to be validated.

  2. Next steps:
    1. Orange (Cedric) will add traceability (TCs to requirements) in RC Ch 5; to close gaps
    2. (Done) CNTT (Rabi) will help to restructure the RC document by moving Ch 3 content (TC requirements) to Ch5 (Traceability), and switching the order of Ch 4 Cookbook with Ch 5 TC list and traceability.
    3. (Mike) Reached out to OPNFV TSC and LFN to get traction on onboarding needed OPNFV projects
      1. Yardstick - discussing, nothing definitive, CNTT/Xtesting integration is part of the project's recurring call
      2. VSPerf - (Sridhar R.) ready to demo, wants to onboard
        Demo 2/26
        Conversation in Prague
        Target EOM Feb - to add containers for Xtesting
      3. Barometer (Emma Foley, 2/19) -
        Discussing, need clarification what is/isn’t already onboarded into Functest
        ...initial feedback, Barometer TCs are not being run with functest.
        ...Determine what TCs we have and whether they are still valid/functional
      4. NFVBench - Alex H.
        Discussion 2/25
        TRex setup in POD setup in POD10?
        Setup in all labs?
        Support available for cabling and TOR switch configuration? --> done with JIRA ticket?
      5. Storperf (Mark B) - discussing, ready to onboard, dialogue open about storage KPIs, but promoting need to baseline first before having established KPIs
