    1. NF instantiate request is generated.

    1. Policies are queried from the OSS/BSS.

  • 3-4. NFO checks for the constraints and requirements related to NF.

  • 5-10. [Intelligent homing decision]NFO request homing suggestion from Non-RT RIC, RIC return with recommended clusterID where the NF can be deployed.

  • 11-14. NFO queries the O-cloud inventory status on the base of which homing decision in taken by NFO.

  • 15-19. DMS sends NF deployment request to the O-Cloud DMS. Instantiation of CNF/Helm install is done with health check probes.

Intelligent auto Healing

The following describes the processing flow of the Intelligent Auto Healing.

  • 1-2. : DMS received fault performance data and generate alarmevent.

  • 3-4. DMS checks for subscriber for the event and send notification in a subscriber is available.

  • 5-6. DMS detects healing condition for auto healing and then send LCM starting notification to the NFO.

  • 7-12. DMS confirms healing action and sends grant request to NFO, for intelligent homing/placement non-RT RIC does analysis based upon operational policies.

  • 13-16. DMS sends LCM operation processing notification to NFO and starts NF deployment. Once auto healing is complete, LCM operation Completed notification is sent to NFO.

    1. Once the healing is done DMS sends alarm clear notification to the subscriber.
