Scope
The 1st OSM Hackfest concentrated on VNF on-boarding activities covering Day 0/1/2 operations. It addressed complex descriptor development to leverage the full suite of capabilities offered by OSM Release THREE, from service and resource orchestration to VNF configuration with charm development.
Objectives were to:
- Install OSM and run some examples
- Get familiar with OSM's GUI and CLI
- Create your own VNF and NS descriptors and build packages
- Understand how to deploy NS/VNF with EPA
- Learn how to add dynamic LCM with Day-1 and Day-2 actions with charms
- Basic troubleshooting Special attention will be paid to troubleshoot real cases from co-located NFV Plugtests.
Participation was free and open to all.
Who could Attend?
- VNF vendors, who wanted to onboard their VNF in OSM following best practices
- System Integrators, who wanted to get used with OSM
- Service providers, who wanted to get first hand operational experience with OSM
- Academia and Universities, who were considering OSM as platform for their research activities in networking
- And, of course, participants in the 2nd NFV Plugtests who might have had specific demands of troubleshooting for their VNF descriptors or Infrastructure
Prerequisites that were absolutely needed:
- Laptop / VM in laptop Linux installed (preferred, Ubuntu 16.04)
- User-level knowledge of Linux
