    21. anybody would like to get more familiar with RMR?
  6. 2022-12-13, 2023-01-17: Bin Yang asked about O2 for RIC platform deployment and xapp deployment. Need to discuss on this topic. O-cloud is deployed in AT&T and Taiwan lab.

    1. The current platform deployment scripts might not be in line with O2 envisions
    2. David Liu (WR) asked from James on O2 as well. James to check if a proposal on using X testing framework could also be used for integration. There's is also a link to robot test cases.
    3. O2-D(MS) is relevant to RIC platform.
    4. deploying xApps (LCM) is also an O2 issue - the alternative of using CRDs is not implemented in OSC RIC. Could be implemented as second option for deploying xApps.
    5. 2023-01-31: No news yet
    6. 2023-02-14 No news yet, Thoralf received e-mail on this from James. Still to check.
    7. 2023-02-28: some e-mail discussion. Ball's on Bin Yang & James side. Subhash and Thoralf discussed this and Thoralf to call a meeting with Bin Yang, subhash, James, Thoralf.
    8. 2023-03-14: AP-James Meeting was held. We see use cases around deploying RIC platform using helm charts over O2; and deploying xApps over O2. For xApps the role of descriptor->helmcharts→k8s manifests in SMO is still missing. AP for James to check with SMO project on ASD (porting or making available "ricdms/dmscli" to SMO; kserve adapter also affected as it uses ricdms) and support for deploying using helm charts and James to discuss with RSAC. Bin-Yang wants to check how RIC can be deployed using helm charts only.
    9. 2023-03-28: no news
  7. James:updates?
    1. 2023-01-31:
      1. working on existing robot test cases (that integrate xapps and platform) to be part of xtesting tests.
      2. Subhash asked for a wiki page documenting this work.
      3. WR also want to contribute to xtesting for O2. CNF package definition still open and concept of DMS.
        1. discussion with Bin Yang in this meeting is possible. Maybe some proposal would be good.
        2. Tacker-based deployment needs to be checked.
    2. 2023-03-14, 2023-03-28: : no news
  8. Sunil updates?
    1. 2023-03-14, 2023-03-28: : no news
  9. Subhash/Naman updates?
    1. 2023-02-28: working on RNIB models for E2 reset. Nanobot integration with A1 mediator. kServe adapter work ongoing (RICDMS extension planned).
      1. Kserve adapter (mentioned in RSAC and e-mail from Hoejoo),
        1. 2023-01-31 Joseph presented the kserve part. We agreed as working assumption to go for solution #1 (slide 2) with model-based inference. Comments by e-mail to Joseph. Slideset: link
          1. Thoralf to create JIRA item for this
          2. Subhash/Thoralf commented that ricdms cli and REST should be implemented at same time. But also ok if only in one.
          3. 2023-02-14: Subhash discussed with Hoejoo on this (internally) - maybe a presentation coming later
          4. https://wiki.o-ran-sc.org/plugins/servlet/mobile?contentId=67535114#content/view/67535114

      2. A1 mediator nanobot integration still under work
    3. 2023-03-28: work continues
  10. Abhijit updates?
  11. Abhijit is now committer for the rust subsystems (platform and xapp) - but there seem to be issues on LF side that didn't actually made this happen.
    1. Thoralf raised support request to LF. Reminders sent. Still no solution.
  12. 2023-03-14:now has access to hw-rust, but not yet xapp-frame-rust (no need to escalate yet). CI for xapp-frame-rust works now.

  15. H release content
    1. we mark items that you are >90% sure (=”committed”) to work on during 1H2023 with your label, like subteam-n (Nokia), subteam-s (Samsung) and so on. Items that are proposed for H release but not “committed” we mark with subteam-n-proposal, subteam-s-proposal and so on. To ease usage I created a couple of filters for follow up. See §7.3 from Jira usage conventions.

      5. Sprint H release dev sprint 5: May-15 to Jun-4 (only for unplanned last-minute development items)
    3. We go through the rough views on what you might want to work on. Also as input use delayed items from previous release link
  16. GRPC vs RMR
    1. 2023-01-17: Still working this within Nokia. WG3 also discusses this.
    2. 2023-01-31, 2023-02-14, 2023-02-28, 2023-03-14, 2023-03-28 : no update

      1. Thoralf's proposal based on current Jira list: "Make the platform more robust in handling E2AP, conflicts and A1"
    3. We mark items that you are >90% sure (=”committed”) to work on during 1H2024 with your label, like subteam-n (Nokia), subteam-s (Samsung) and so on. Items that are proposed for J release but not “committed” we mark with subteam-n-proposal, subteam-s-proposal and so on. To ease usage I created a couple of filters for follow up. See §7.3 from Jira usage conventions.
      1. committed (90% sure) and tentative (90...30% sure) items: subteam-n, subteam-h, subteam-p, subteam-s, subteam-utfpr, subteam-ag, subteam-cg, subteam-r, subteam-gs
      2. committed items only: all teams (committed) and all teams (committed + tentative).
      3. items that are known to require work, but are currently not in J release: link,  to include k8s version upgrade, clean up of pending issues.
    1. input for release candidates: leftovers and generally open items, RSAC
    2. Sprint dates
      1. Sprint J release dev sprint 1: Feb-19 to Mar-10
      2. Sprint J release dev sprint 2: Mar-11 to Mar-31

2022-12-13, 2023-01-17: Bin Yang asked about O2 for RIC platform deployment and xapp deployment. Need to discuss on this topic. O-cloud is deployed in AT&T and Taiwan lab.

  1. The current platform deployment scripts might not be in line with O2 envisions
  2. David Liu (WR) asked from James on O2 as well. James to check if a proposal on using X testing framework could also be used for integration. There's is also a link to robot test cases.
  3. O2-D(MS) is relevant to RIC platform.
  4. deploying xApps (LCM) is also an O2 issue - the alternative of using CRDs is not implemented in OSC RIC. Could be implemented as second option for deploying xApps.
  5. 2023-01-31: No news yet
  6. 2023-02-14 No news yet, Thoralf received e-mail on this from James. Still to check.
  7. 2023-02-28: some e-mail discussion. Ball's on Bin Yang & James side. Subhash and Thoralf discussed this and Thoralf to call a meeting with Bin Yang, subhash, James, Thoralf.
  8. 2023-03-14: AP-James Meeting was held. We see use cases around deploying RIC platform using helm charts over O2; and deploying xApps over O2. For xApps the role of descriptor->helmcharts→k8s manifests in SMO is still missing. AP for James to check with SMO project on ASD (porting or making available "ricdms/dmscli" to SMO; kserve adapter also affected as it uses ricdms) and support for deploying using helm charts and James to discuss with RSAC. Bin-Yang wants to check how RIC can be deployed using helm charts only.

...

  1. 2023-01-31:
    1. working on existing robot test cases (that integrate xapps and platform) to be part of xtesting tests.
    2. Subhash asked for a wiki page documenting this work.
    3. WR also want to contribute to xtesting for O2. CNF package definition still open and concept of DMS.
      1. discussion with Bin Yang in this meeting is possible. Maybe some proposal would be good.
      2. Tacker-based deployment needs to be checked.

    1. The current platform deployment scripts might not be in line with O2 envisions
    2. David Liu (WR) asked from James on O2 as well. James to check if a proposal on using X testing framework could also be used for integration. There's is also a link to robot test cases.
    3. O2-D(MS) is relevant to RIC platform.
    4. deploying xApps (LCM) is also an O2 issue - the alternative of using CRDs is not implemented in OSC RIC. Could be implemented as second option for deploying xApps.

        1. 2023-11-21
          1. was at OSC-OAI conference
          2. could start using team accounts to test beds from Colosseum (NU) and ARA
          3. discussed with Bimo (Taiwan lab) on pair-wise testing
          4. discussed with John Keeney (non-rt ric ptl) and discussed A1 pairwise testing. Asked from Sunil what's best A1-policy using xApp. None exists on open-src side. Naman commented that for Policy the hello-world xApp (C++ likely) could be used (just requires RMR  route for policy type (must match the policy type that is created via curl)). James to contact Naman if help needed.
        2. 2024-01-16: TM-500 in Taiwan lab is again available (discussions with Intel on bringing up L1 and L2). RIC probably not one of the very next steps.
        3. 2023-01-30: O-RAN f-2-f: James asked if any demo planned. → not planned.
        4. 2024-02-13: thinking about demos for f-2-f (in discussion with Bimu)
        5. 2024-03-12: No updates. Willing to give demo on ORAN-SC Near RT RIC Demo. Details to be worked on the technical and demo content.

      4. James: updates?
        1. 2023-11-21
          1. was at OSC-OAI conference
          2. could start using team accounts to test beds from Colosseum (NU) and ARA
          3. discussed with Bimo (Taiwan lab) on pair-wise testing
          4. discussed with John Keeney (non-rt ric ptl) and discussed A1 pairwise testing. Asked from Sunil what's best A1-policy using xApp. None exists on open-src side. Naman commented that for Policy the hello-world xApp (C++ likely) could be used (just requires RMR  route for policy type (must match the policy type that is created via curl)). James to contact Naman if help needed.
        2. 2024-01-16: TM-500 in Taiwan lab is again available (discussions with Intel on bringing up L1 and L2). RIC probably not one of the very next steps.
        3. 2023-01-30: O-RAN f-2-f: James asked if any demo planned. → not planned.

          2. no progress in review on the plain helm chart based deployment in https://gerrit.o-ran-sc.org/r/c/ric-plt/ric-dep/+/11743 → to be merged by Thoralf Czichy 
          3. 1 and 2 of RIC-1004 still be finailized this week. Rest to be moved to a new item.
          4. Sunil asked about the Rust xApp → ready with basic hello world scenario. Documentation is best placed into readme and  confluence.

          1. no Jira tickets yet, but woudl like to focus on 
            1. K8S operator for day 2 operations, like scale-in and scale-out (but requires some thoughts on messaging) : RIC-1048
        2. I release theme for near-rt RIC was "RIC Platform Enhancements". What's it going to be for J?
          1. Thoralf's proposal based on current Jira list: "Make the platform more robust in handling E2AP, conflicts and A1"
        3. We mark items that you are >90% sure (=”committed”) to work on during 1H2024 with your label, like subteam-n (Nokia), subteam-s (Samsung) and so on. Items that are proposed for J release but not “committed” we mark with subteam-n-proposal, subteam-s-proposal and so on. To ease usage I created a couple of filters for follow up. See §7.3 from Jira usage conventions.
          1. committed (90% sure) and tentative (90...30% sure) items: subteam-n, subteam-h, subteam-p, subteam-s, subteam-utfpr, subteam-ag, subteam-cg, subteam-r, subteam-gs
          2. committed items only: all teams (committed) and all teams (committed + tentative).
          3. items that are known to require work, but are currently not in J release: link
        1. input for release candidates: leftovers and generally open items, RSAC
        2. Sprint dates

        1. 2023-09-12: requested from PTLs pair-wise testing. From Near-RT RIC point of view we hope for the non-RT RIC project to initiate testing with A1 mediator standalone version.
        2. 2023-09-26: This was presented in TOC (See link). Cases relevant for near-RT RIC:
          1. ODU-high and near-RT RIC (currently using stub).
          2. near-RT RIC and xApp (KPIMON/bouncer or maybe adding CCC xApp)
          3. near-RT RIC and non-RT RIC (A1) - next step on non-RT RIC side (A1 standalone mediator provided)
          4. James will check with Sunil on issues he has with the test cases
          5. ArgoCD used by Taiwan lab in some ONAP SMO  case and the engineers there where wondering if something similar could be done with OSC.

            1. nephio and OAI discussion: Nephio team would like to add RAN components (OAI, OSC, and parts of the OSC SMO (via Seshu) into R2 (~Feb2024)
            2. OAI had three demos. One of them is about improving QoE with H release of near-RT RIC using some code copied from KPM and hello world xApps.
              1. see demo "oai-osc-ric-demo.mp4" in link and the demo session recording on the O-RAN web site (thoralf-todo)
              2. more discussion coming at the joint OSC/OAI workshop in Boston
            3. session on SCCL did make some progress in that WG10/WG6 understanding improved. Additional discussion scheduled under O-RAN umbrella for Oct-31.
          2. OSFG discussed on the super wireless footprint (matrial available at O-RAN OSFG)

          1. was at OSC-OAI conference
          2. could start using team accounts to test beds from Colosseum (NU) and ARA
          3. discussed with Bimo (Taiwan lab) on pair-wise testing
          4. discussed with John Keeney (non-rt ric ptl) and discussed A1 pairwise testing. Asked from Sunil what's best A1-policy using xApp. None exists on open-src side. Naman commented that for Policy the hello-world xApp (C++ likely) could be used (just requires RMR  route for policy type (must match the policy type that is created via curl)). James to contact Naman if help needed.
        6. 2024-01-16: TM-500 in Taiwan lab is again available (discussions with Intel on bringing up L1 and L2). RIC probably not one of the very next steps.
      5. Prashant's work in near-RT RIC(subteam-p)
        1. 2023-08-22, 2023-09-26. 2023-11-07: could not participate

        3. 2023-11-21: no updates. Difficult to find engineers working on this.
        4. 2024-01-16: demo of xApp project additions in I release → Next time
        5. 2024-01-16: re-evaluating RIC platform Jira items
      7. Subhash/Naman updates (subteam-s) ?
        1. 2023-08-29: no news, other than Naman working on the operator implementation.
        2. 2023-09-12:
          1. We had a meeting with John and Denis on non-rt RIC compatibility. Agreed in fixes for URL and policystatusobject type from integer→string (as per standard) → Naman.
          2. Thoralf to figure out a way to start A1 mediator standalone for CI testing
            1. Thoralf sent instructions to John → DONE
          3. current implementation of /data-delivery URL in A1 - need to check if >1 consumer of EI data (sent by non-RT RIC) works on our side.
          4. Naman also works on the operator implementation
        3. 2023-09-26:
          1. kubernetes operator new repo needed or not?
            1. xapp deployment → appmgr or ricdms
            2. ric platform → ric-dep (still work in progress) - check if operator can use helm chart defined by Abhijit.
          2. What happened to kserve adapter? → Subhash can check.
        4. 2023-11-07
          1. Naman presented his k8s operator work. Naman used Kubebuilder
          2. still working on operator to deploy RIC platform
        5. 2023-11-21:
          1. k8s operator commits - needs to be finalized.
        6. 2023-12-05: Naman gave an update on status of Samsung items
        7. 2024-01-16: Naman updated readme (still to merged) on how to deploy RIC using operators.
      8. Abhijit updates (subteam-ag) ?
        1. 2023-10-24:
          1. Abhijit and James release new base image: docker pull nexus3.o-ran-sc.org:10002/o-ran-sc/bldr-ubuntu22-c-go:0.1.0 → still to be made 1.0.0 → Reminder Abhijit Gadgil 
          2. no progress in review on the plain helm chart based deployment in https://gerrit.o-ran-sc.org/r/c/ric-plt/ric-dep/+/11743 → to be merged by Thoralf Czichy

      9. Cap Gemini updates (subteam-cg)? 
        1. 2023-11-07: after discussions on the topic we would like to proceed with
          1. Phase1: Conflict Manager (running as a platform component) without E2SM parsing which means that Conflict Manager feature will work only for Conflict Aware xApps. Interface between Conflict Aware xApp and Conflict Manager will be gRPC.

          2. Phase2: E2SM xApp support so that the Conflict Manager feature works for Conflict Unaware xApps as well.

          3. discuss-with-Sunil-on-when-and-how-in-terms-of-repo-creation → we agreed to come back to this in 1H2024

      10. Himanshu (subteam-gs) would like to work on RIC-963
        1. 2023-08-29: ready for merging once the CI problem (gofmt) is fixed. Can be merged together with a change in the helm chart (ric-dep). Default behavior is "strict order" (as currently). But config value can change to "any order".
        2. 2023-11-07: addressing review comments of https://gerrit.o-ran-sc.org/r/c/ric-plt/submgr/+/11681 tomorrow. Then we should be able to merge this.
        3. 2023-11-21: as discussed in teh beginning of the meeting. Review comment still being worked on. Once handled, pls. merge. And wer handle commits as piecemeal small items.
        4. 2023-12-05: RIC-963 seems to be ready. Himanshu still wants to test this with unordered IEs. Requires a minor addition in ric-dep repo for new config parameter.
        5. 2024-01-16: RIC-963 ready and merged. New review for RIC-1030 for final changes on checking (or not checking) IE order in additional messages.

        1. We mark items that you are >90% sure (=”committed”) to work on during 1H2024 with your label, like subteam-n (Nokia), subteam-s (Samsung) and so on. Items that are proposed for J release but not “committed” we mark with subteam-n-proposal, subteam-s-proposal and so on. To ease usage I created a couple of filters for follow up. See §7.3 from Jira usage conventions.
          1. Example Nokia J release: link
        1. input for release candidates: left ovleft oversers and generally open items, RSAC

          1.  https://gerrit.o-ran-sc.org/r/c/ric-plt/xapp-frame-rust/+/11898 OK (simple alarms, but we created RIC-1028 for a more general test mock framework)
          2. https://gerrit.o-ran-sc.org/r/c/ric-plt/ric-dep/+/11743 OK, since deployment acts as test
          3. https://gerrit.o-ran-sc.org/r/c/ric-plt/ricdms/+/12025 ok, lots of code, but very generic. Naman will try to add test case

      2022-12-13, 2023-01-17: Bin Yang asked about O2 for RIC platform deployment and xapp deployment. Need to discuss on this topic. O-cloud is deployed in AT&T and Taiwan lab.

      1. The current platform deployment scripts might not be in line with O2 envisions
      2. David Liu (WR) asked from James on O2 as well. James to check if a proposal on using X testing framework could also be used for integration. There's is also a link to robot test cases.
      3. O2-D(MS) is relevant to RIC platform.
      4. deploying xApps (LCM) is also an O2 issue - the alternative of using CRDs is not implemented in OSC RIC. Coudl be implemented as second option for deploying xApps.

      ...

          12. : some cleanup is needed first.
            1. RIC-860 - suggestion is to merge the one abandoned RIC-860 review and the one that is still open into one review and keep that as new review.
            2. RIC-878 - suggest to re-start review 8500 and merge it with the current open one for RIC-878 and start this as new review.
            3. test both if they are actually working
            4. 2022-08-30: team currently busy, but will pick up on this again soon

      1. 2022-11-08: continues work with keysight (using KPI-mon-go xApp (E2APv1, and older E2SM). hw-go could be used if E2AP2.0 is needed. hw-go does not parse E2SM-parts.
        1. HCL also working on E2APv2.0 xApps.
      2. 2023-01-17: work with keysight completed before thanksgiving weekend (excl. xapp; focus on base E2AP cases). No need to keep this in the agenda.

      ...

      1. we mark items that you are >90% sure (=”committed”) to work on during 1H2023 with your label, like subteam-n (Nokia), subteam-s (Samsung) and so on. Items that are proposed for H release but not “committed” we mark with subteam-n-proposal, subteam-s-proposal and so on. To ease usage I created a couple of filters for follow up. See §7.3 from Jira usage conventions.
      2. Sprint dates
        1. Sprint H release dev sprint 1: Feb-20´to Mar-12
        2. Sprint H release dev sprint 2: Mar-13 to Apr-2

      7. 2022-08-16 →2022-08-30 → 2022-09-27 → 2022-10-11: no news yet, current approach we assume E2M manages E2 node to gNB list mapping and submgr (together with E2T) manage subscriptions. xApps to be aware of many E2T instances and many xApp instances.
      8. 2022-11-08: focus of Nokia proposal will be on scalability (xApps, #E2 connections)
      9. 2022-11-22: WG3 spec for RICAPI available in current train. Worth reading. Defines GRPC, but also SCTP+Protobuf interfaces.

        1. 2023-08-22:
          1. checking compliance/license issues
          2. How are policy types created? xApps register by policy type and understands the schema that is bound to it. Non-RT RIC should create policies using the same schema (there's a GUI for this on non-RT RIC side).
        2. 2023-08-29:
          1. got clarity on license issues and now waiting for internal approval before publishing ipv6 releated changes

          21. 2022-07-05: Thoralf moved RIC-705 and RIC-641 (xapp-frame-cpp) out of the F release. Which means they are likely early G release features.
          22. 2022-07-19: RIC-912 for clean up of the build process (should use dockerfile). But we first try to get current review through
          23. 2022-08-02: SUNIL SINGH check status with Anh Nguyen

          1. Currently in the hands of OTF team (Alex)
          2. dms_cli seems to have issues (James has used this in E release), dms_cli does not have CI/CD case. For now, let's agree if a good problem report is sent, Nune or Thoralf can look at it.
            1. 2022-05-30: Thoralf comment in RIC-915
        4. 2022-06-21: XTesting (used by Anuket) proposed as alternative to OTF (lack of support from OTF developers)

        12. 2022-11-08: continues work with keysight (using KPI-mon-go xApp (E2APv1, and older E2SM). hw-go could be used if E2AP2.0 is needed. hw-go does not parse E2SM-parts.
          1. HCL also working on E2APv2.0 xApps.
      3. G release content wrap up
        1. we mark items that you are >90% sure (=”committed”) to work on during 2H2022 with your label, like subteam-n (Nokia), subteam-s (Samsung) and so on. Items that are proposed for G release but not “committed” we mark with subteam-n-proposal, subteam-s-proposal and so on. To ease usage I created a couple of filters for follow up. See §7.3 from Jira usage conventions.
        2. Sprint dates
          1. Sprint G release dev sprint 1: Aug-22 to Sep-11

      4. GRPC vs RMR
        1. Nokia is plannig RMR with GRPC (E2AP-equivalent xApp interfaces)
        2. to include Alexandre in discussion as well. Subhash also interested in what's coming. Nitin (mavenir) and Sunil (HCL) also interested.
        3. need to look at Mavenir E2SM-RC proposal.
        4. impact on xapp frameworks will happen as well.
        5. Alexandre mentioned option of using QUIC (grpc over QUIC).
        6. Thoralf to schedule a meeting once a proposal is ready.
        7. 2022-08-16 →2022-08-30 → 2022-09-27 → 2022-10-11: no news yet, current approach we assume E2M manages E2 node to gNB list mapping and submgr (together with E2T) manage subscriptions. xApps to be aware of many E2T instances and many xApp instances.
        8. 2022-11-08: focus of Nokia proposal will be on scalability (xApps, #E2 connections)
        9. 2022-11-22: WG3 spec for RICAPI available in current train. Worth reading. Defines GRPC, but also SCTP+Protobuf interfaces.
      5. In O-RAN f-2-f in October, OSC has a three hour slot for presentations about what OSC did. RSAC coordinates this. Slideset on content of E and F release, show existing demo on RIC deploy, xapp deploy and connect simulator, show demo on E2AP2.0 incl. E2 config update (all together 30 min).
        1. 2022-09-13: likely the way we go forward - Subhash and Thoralf will handle
          1. 2022-09-27: Thoralf to create presentation material and send to subhash

          3. James organized a video loop for the OSC video recordings and James (CMCC) and and Ramesh (HCL) talked in the breakout panel discussion "Accelerating O-RAN adoption through open source"
          4. OAI planning to support E2SM-KPM/E2SM-RC in CU/DU/gNB
          5. ns-3 E2 adapter (GPL) is now published in OSC.
      6. Update from Samsung side
        1. news discussed in G release content section
          1. 11999 actually small changes, but as this is generated code, no need for test cases. Actually hand-written code is coming in another review together with test code.
      7. every second time: Review code coverage stats and blocker code smells
        1. We take a look at the two links in the beginning of this page: Code coverage reports..
        2. The list below is only working reports // Anybody volunteering to work with LF on making the code coverage CI to work again (there's still the old JVM version)
        3. Thoralf did this last on 2023-05-23:  we did not do this this time

          1. Phase1: Conflict Manager (running as a platform component) without E2SM parsing which means that Conflict Manager feature will work only for Conflict Aware xApps. Interface between Conflict Aware xApp and Conflict Manager will be gRPC.

          2. Phase2: E2SM xApp support so that the Conflict Manager feature works for Conflict Unaware xApps as well. TODO-discuss-with-Sunil-on-when-and-how-in-terms-of-repo-creation

          3. TODO-thoralf-to-ask-Gunja-to-present

        1. 2023-08-22:
          1. checking compliance/license issues
          2. How are policy types created? xApps register by policy type and understands the schema that is bound to it. Non-RT RIC should create policies using the same schema (there's a GUI for this on non-RT RIC side).
        2. 2023-08-29:
          1. got clarity on license issues and now waiting for internal approval before publishing ipv6 releated changes
