======================== ETSI NFV-SOL VNF Healing ======================== This document describes how to heal VNF in Tacker. Overview -------- The diagram below shows an overview of the VNF healing. 1. Request heal VNF A user requests tacker-server to heal a VNF or all VNFs with tacker-client by requesting ``heal VNF``. 2. Call OpenStack Heat API Upon receiving a request from tacker-client, tacker-server redirects it to tacker-conductor. In tacker-conductor, the request is redirected again to an appropriate infra-driver (in this case OpenStack infra-driver) according to the contents of the instantiate parameters. Then, OpenStack infra-driver calls OpenStack Heat APIs. 3. Re-create VMs OpenStack Heat re-creates VMs according to the API calls. .. figure:: ../_images/etsi_vnf_healing.png :align: left Prerequisites ------------- The following packages should be installed: * tacker * python-tackerclient A default VIM should be registered according to :doc:`../cli/cli-legacy-vim`. The VNF Package(sample_vnf_pkg.zip) used below is prepared by referring to :doc:`./vnf-package`. Execute up to "Instantiate VNF" in the procedure of :doc:`./etsi_vnf_deployment_as_vm_with_tosca`. In other words, the procedure after "Terminate VNF" is not executed. Healing Target VNF Instance ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Assuming that the following VNF instance exists, this instance will be healed. .. code-block:: console $ openstack vnflcm show VNF_INSTANCE_ID

corresponds to 'Stack Name' managed by Heat. In this manual, it corresponds to **vnf-9e086f34-b3c9-4986-b5e5-609a5ac4c1f9**. VNF Healing Procedure --------------------- As mentioned in **Prerequisites** and **Healing target VNF instance**, the VNF must be instantiated before healing. Details of CLI commands are described in :doc:`../cli/cli-etsi-vnflcm`. There are two main methods for VNF healing. * Healing of the entire VNF * Healing specified with VNFC instances .. note:: A VNFC is a 'VNF Component', and one VNFC basically corresponds to one VDU in the VNF. For more information on VNFC, see `NFV-SOL002 v2.6.1`_. The client can specify the target resources for healing with two parameters in the API request. - *vnfcInstanceId* is a list which indicates VNFC instances for which a healing action is requested. - *all* indicates whether network resources and storage resources are included in the heal target. This is set in the attribute of *additionalParams*. With the combination of these parameters, Tacker supports the following patterns of healing. - Pattern A. *vnfcInstanceId* is included in the request. - Pattern A-1. *all = False* is included in the request or *all* is not included in the request. - Only specified VNFC instances are healed. - Pattern A-2. *all = True* are included in the request. - Specified VNFC instances and storage resources are healed. - Pattern B. *vnfcInstanceId* is not included in the request. - Pattern B-1. *all = False* is included in the request or *all* is not included in the request. - All VNFC instances included in the VNF instance are healed. - Pattern B-2. *all = True* are included in the request. - All resources included in the VNF instance are healed. It includes VNFC instances, network resources, and storage resources but not external virtual networks. .. note:: *all* option is not supported by the version 1 API. How to Heal of the Entire VNF ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When healing of the entire VNF, the following APIs are executed from Tacker to Heat. See `Heat API reference`_. for details on Heat APIs. * stack delete * stack create Execute Heat CLI command and check 'ID' and 'Stack Status' of the stack before and after healing. This is to confirm that stack 'ID' has changed before and after healing, and that the re-creation has been completed successfully. See `Heat CLI reference`_. for details on Heat CLI commands. Stack information before healing: .. code-block:: console $ openstack stack list -c 'ID' -c 'Stack Name' -c 'Stack Status' Result: .. code-block:: console +--------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+-----------------+ | ID | Stack Name | Stack Status | +--------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+-----------------+ | 5322e9c4-b5ac-439e-8ed4-d0710816f318 | vnf-9e086f34-b3c9-4986-b5e5-609a5ac4c1f9 | CREATE_COMPLETE | +--------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+-----------------+ Healing execution of the entire VNF: .. code-block:: console $ openstack vnflcm heal VNF_INSTANCE_ID Result: .. code-block:: console Heal request for VNF Instance 9e086f34-b3c9-4986-b5e5-609a5ac4c1f9 has been accepted. Stack information after healing: .. code-block:: console $ openstack stack list -c 'ID' -c 'Stack Name' -c 'Stack Status' Result: .. code-block:: console +--------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+-----------------+ | ID | Stack Name | Stack Status | +--------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+-----------------+ | ad077101-b093-4785-9ca5-cc7c1379bb10 | vnf-9e086f34-b3c9-4986-b5e5-609a5ac4c1f9 | CREATE_COMPLETE | +--------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+-----------------+ .. note:: 'ID' has changed from the ID before healing. 'Stack Status' transitions to CREATE_COMPLETE. How to Heal Specified with VNFC Instances ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Extract the value of vnfcResourceInfo -> id from 'Instantiated Vnf Info' in **Healing target VNF instance**. This is the VNFC instance ID. This manual shows an example of healing VDU1 as VNFC. In this manual, **b07ba349-1366-4d14-91e9-07842cdfa7ab** corresponds to the ``VNFC_instance_ID`` of VDU1. .. note:: In the case of version 1 API, ``VNFC_INSTANCE_ID`` is ``instantiatedVnfInfo.vnfcResourceInfo.id``. In the case of version 2 API, ``VNFC_INSTANCE_ID`` is ``instantiatedVnfInfo.vnfcInfo.id``. When healing specified with VNFC instances, the following APIs are executed from Tacker to Heat. See `Heat API reference`_. for details on Heat APIs. * stack resource mark unhealthy * stack update Execute Heat CLI command and check physical_resource_id and resource_status of VDU1 before and after healing. This is to confirm that the resource ID of this VDU1 has changed before and after healing, and that the re-creation has been completed successfully. See `Heat CLI reference`_. for details on Heat CLI commands. .. note:: Note that 'vnfc-instance-id' managed by Tacker and 'physical-resource-id' managed by Heat are different. VDU1 information before healing: .. code-block:: console $ openstack stack resource show HEAT_STACK_ID \ VDU_NAME -c physical_resource_id -c resource_status Result: .. code-block:: console +----------------------+--------------------------------------+ | Field | Value | +----------------------+--------------------------------------+ | physical_resource_id | b3393a22-a064-43d0-b021-e8549a62b366 | | resource_status | CREATE_COMPLETE | +----------------------+--------------------------------------+ Healing execution of VDU1: .. code-block:: console $ openstack vnflcm heal VNF_INSTANCE_ID \ --vnfc-instance VNFC_INSTANCE_ID Result: .. code-block:: console Heal request for VNF Instance 9e086f34-b3c9-4986-b5e5-609a5ac4c1f9 has been accepted. .. note:: It is possible to specify multiple VNFC instance IDs in '--vnfc-instance' option. VDU1 information before healing: .. code-block:: console $ openstack stack resource show HEAT_STACK_ID \ VDU_NAME -c physical_resource_id -c resource_status Result: .. code-block:: console +----------------------+--------------------------------------+ | Field | Value | +----------------------+--------------------------------------+ | physical_resource_id | 794b9460-d799-4398-98a4-413fb04d2051 | | resource_status | CREATE_COMPLETE | +----------------------+--------------------------------------+ .. note:: 'physical_resource_id' has changed from the ID before healing.
