SIM (Alex Stancu)

• Looking at TIM dataset
  
  • Difficult to see how useful the is the data as currently presented & lack of metadata. Very old - 2013.Parsing & now a bit easier to use.
  • Very large. Looking for somewhere to share it (Nexus?)

OAM (Martin Skorupski)

• Martin Skorupski on vacation (Public Holiday)
  • No update
  Carrying on
  • Still work on PM Streaming. See below.

OSC Integration / INT (James Li)

• Discussion with Taiwan lab team at last weeks RSAC
• RSAC Meetings 
Discussion on how SMO can be deployed, and what are the deployment options available (e.g. charts in it/dep) gamerslouis@gmail.com & bimo fransiscus asisi 
• https://wiki.o-ran-sc.org/download/attachments/3604609/20230920-ONAP-based%20SMO%20Deployment%20with%20Argo%20CD%20-%20NYCU.pptx?api=v2 
• ArgoCD seems a good choice - based on findings in ONAP. Would be good to share learnings across OSC/ONAP.
Need to ensure charts in it/dep are up to date.No other update

  • Some updates to the UML sequence diagram
    
    • Source: https://gerrit.o-ran-sc.org/r/gitweb?p=oam.git;a=tree;f=spec/pm-streaming & https://gerrit.o-ran-sc.org/r/q/topic:OAM-349

...

• Details of using CPS is still ongoing
  
  • Quite complex ...
    • How to interact/integrate SDNR & CPS, e.g. mounted netconf device models, CM notifications
    • VES vs Netconf id mapping is very tricky & must be maintained.
      • Decision: CM handle in CPS is same as Netconf server ID in RANSIM & same of NF ID & same as sourceID in VES message.
  • Also relevant for O-RAN SMO sequence flow work (N.K. Shankaranarayanan)

SMO Deployment

• Ref: RSAC meeting 20/Sep - Slides & video @ RSAC Meetings 
• Still very unclear how it/dep deployment works & if it is maintained.
• Work from Taiwan Lab should / could be reusable hopefully.
• Meeting with ONAP OOM team tomorrow to iron out technicalities of deploying ONAP functions
  • https://lists.onap.org/g/onap-meetings/viewevent?repeatid=31908&eventid=2003085&calstart=2023-10-04 
    • Wednesday, October 4th, 2023
      2:00pm to 3:00pm (UTC) Coordinated Universal Time
      https://zoom.us/j/96113493781?pwd=cER3aHgvZ1MrNmtXZVV1K0hmQjhnQT09
• There have been updates since OAM function version in it/dep / ONAP worked
  • e.g. VES collector needs to be built (3gpp)
  • e.g. OAM gateway (sdnc, keycloak, dmaap, ves collector are now behind gateway for ease of addressing)
• SIM / topology ... still pretty similar - but very use case specific
• NONRTRIC ... Charts in it-dep/nontric diretory are up to date. charts/configurations in it-dep/smo-intall are a little dated, but not too bad.
• Main question is where does platform stop & use case start .. Alot of the charts/deployment is use case specific.

Disaggregated SMO Flows (N.K. Shankaranarayanan)

• Short update this week
  • Discussion continue in WG1 re AI-ML inclusion in flows.
  • Include service Orchestration function?

• Mapping work in O-RAN WG1 (Disaggregated SMO) to related opensource projects 
  • Strawman for architecture - driven by some candidate usecase flows.
  • Aim for alignment across projects and across diff specs.
  • Aim for common vocabulary etc.
• N.K. Shankaranarayanan working on slides now. See draft slides from last weekprevious weeks:
