Known Issues

v5.0.5

  • Instantiation “additional” parameters can’t be passed with the config object through the dashboard. Being addressed by this fix.

  • Cloud-init will not allow parameter names with hyphens due to Jinja2 (Python Identifiers) implementation, but the error is misleading. Being addressed through this fix.

  • Proxy charms may not be deleted after NS is terminated, making the NS fail to be deleted. Workaround is to delete the LXC container with juju remove-machine command, then force the deletion of the NS. Being addressed by this fix.

v6.0.1

  • VDUs that do not support ‘MIME-multi part file’ and use charms, will not be able to receive the cloud_init information provided in its own package. The issue is explained in this bug

Installing Python OSM IM package

For using the devops tools for validating the descriptors aganst the model, the python-osm-im package should be installed. Follow these steps to install it if needed:

# Check that the current OSM debian repository is the current stable repo for the release:
grep -h ^deb /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* |grep osm-download
#  should be similar to this, and should include IM component:
#    deb [arch=amd64] https://osm-download.etsi.org/repository/osm/debian/ReleaseSIX stable IM osmclient devops

# If missing, add repository with:
curl "https://osm-download.etsi.org/repository/osm/debian/ReleaseSIX/OSM%20ETSI%20Release%20Key.gpg" | apt-key add -
apt-get update && add-apt-repository -y "deb [arch=amd64] https://osm-download.etsi.org/repository/osm/debian/ReleaseSIX stable IM osmclient devops"

# Install/update python-osm-im and its dependencies
apt-get update
apt-get install python-osm-im
sudo -H pip install pyangbind

Migrating old descriptors to current release

If you have Release 1 or 2 descriptors, you can convert it to a newer, supported format. Only the files containing the VNFD or NSD descriptor need to be migrated. Clone the devops repo, run the utility for that and generate the package:

git clone https://osm.etsi.org/gerrit/osm/devops
./devops/descriptor-packages/tools/upgrade_descriptor_version.py -i <old-descriptor-file> -o <new-descriptor-file>
# generate package following the instructions of previous sections

This command fails if package python-osm-im is not installed.
