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.
Request heal VNF
A user requests tacker-server to heal a VNF or all VNFs with tacker-client by requesting
heal VNF.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.
Re-create VMs
OpenStack Heat re-creates VMs according to the API calls.
Prerequisites
The following packages should be installed:
- tacker
- python-tackerclient
A default VIM should be registered according to ../cli/cli-legacy-vim.
The VNF Package(sample_vnf_pkg.zip) used below is prepared by
referring to ./vnf-package.
Execute up to "Instantiate VNF" in the procedure of ./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.

The value set for 'VNF Instance Name' 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 ../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.
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:
$ openstack stack list -c 'ID' -c 'Stack Name' -c 'Stack Status'Result:
+--------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+-----------------+
| ID | Stack Name | Stack Status |
+--------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+-----------------+
| 5322e9c4-b5ac-439e-8ed4-d0710816f318 | vnf-9e086f34-b3c9-4986-b5e5-609a5ac4c1f9 | CREATE_COMPLETE |
+--------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+-----------------+Healing execution of the entire VNF:
$ openstack vnflcm heal VNF_INSTANCE_IDResult:
Heal request for VNF Instance 9e086f34-b3c9-4986-b5e5-609a5ac4c1f9 has been accepted.Stack information after healing:
$ openstack stack list -c 'ID' -c 'Stack Name' -c 'Stack Status'Result:
+--------------------------------------+------------------------------------------+-----------------+
| 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.
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:
$ openstack stack resource show HEAT_STACK_ID \
VDU_NAME -c physical_resource_id -c resource_statusResult:
+----------------------+--------------------------------------+
| Field | Value |
+----------------------+--------------------------------------+
| physical_resource_id | b3393a22-a064-43d0-b021-e8549a62b366 |
| resource_status | CREATE_COMPLETE |
+----------------------+--------------------------------------+Healing execution of VDU1:
$ openstack vnflcm heal VNF_INSTANCE_ID \
--vnfc-instance VNFC_INSTANCE_IDResult:
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:
$ openstack stack resource show HEAT_STACK_ID \
VDU_NAME -c physical_resource_id -c resource_statusResult:
+----------------------+--------------------------------------+
| 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. 'resource_status' transitions to CREATE_COMPLETE.
