That said, if we had a case that tracked theirs, it might prevent duplication of effort 14:23:59 Jaypipes: Yes 14:24:04 jaypipes: yep 14:24:07 kk 14:24:16 any thoughts on it? 14:24:25 I haven't had a chance to look much into it, unfortunately. 14:24:58 so this keeps coming up whenever we have discussions on service chaining and vnf management 14:25:10 I'll reiterate, but I don't know if it will help 14:25:21 it's great to have a VNF manager that is OpenStack aware 14:25:25 Goal (AIUI) of having an OpenStack component capable of acting as a VNFM is good one, IMO 14:25:46 Heat lacking in that regard (e.g. healing) 14:25:48 the bit I'm worried about is when the the VNF is chained to an external network function (like MPLS tags pushed/popped by a hardware router) 14:26:01 and when there's devices in the chain that are outside of OpenStack's control 14:26:28 jaypipes: Here's the Intel position on Tacker: "Intel started the Tacker effort to investigate the deployment of service VMs with OpenStack with a blueprint from Intel Labs at the Hong Kong summit. We brought together interested parties and delivered a proof-of-concept. 14:26:31 With this enabling work completed, Intel is now focusing on contributing to another range of projects across OpenStack. Intel has a long-term commitment to the OpenStack project and is actively collaborating with the community on extensions for Enterprise, Cloud and Telco use cases.” 14:26:54 adrian-hoban: you are active in tacker, right? 14:28:08 I will try to attend to their meetings 14:28:20 mkoderer: Intel was active in Tacker. It started as a Service VM exploration. From our perspective, we completed that investigation 14:28:45 adrian-hoban: ok I see 14:29:39 #topic Critical Reviews 14:29:46 #link https://review.openstack.org/#/q/project:stackforge/telcowg-usecases+status:open,n,z 14:30:09 do we have a review/use-case were we want to have a discussion today? 14:30:25 mkoderer: of those 5, which is the most important to review? 14:30:59 jaypipes: I know that SFC is quite instressting for many ppl 14:31:03 #link https://review.openstack.org/#/c/169201/ 14:31:17 mkoderer: k, I will try to review that one in the next couple days. 14:31:23 but we have similar efforts in OpNFV though 14:31:51 very important is also: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/178347/ 14:31:53 but it 14:32:01 but it's still a WiP 14:32:12 I actually think that WIP is the more important one for feedback 14:32:28 it's going to set the way we go from accepted use case to getting things done 14:32:34 aveiga_: yep.. +1 14:32:53 k, I'll get a review on that one this week, too. 14:33:21 it's currently quite open what we do with merged use-cases 14:33:41 yup, and the more input the better on that one 14:33:51 so having a process is key 14:34:35 #action jaypipes review on https://review.openstack.org/#/c/178347/ and https://review.openstack.org/#/c/169201/ 14:34:38 :) 14:34:47 :) 14:35:30 ok any other review we want to discuss today? 14:36:13 mkoderer: just a quick note to request feedback on my question on that etherpad if anyone has some time.. 14:36:58 jaypipes: ok so your comments on "Fault management"? 14:37:01 jaypipes: you mean the multisite/availability one? 14:37:10 aveiga_: yes please. 14:37:18 mkoderer: yes please :) 14:37:37 ok :) 14:37:56 #topic Open discussion 14:38:04 Also, not sure if aveiga_ said he would earlier, but can we get a summary email to the ML that discusses the results/outcome of the VLAN and the MPLS breakouts? 14:38:22 hrm, I think I can do that 14:38:29 thx aveiga_! 14:38:30 mkoderer: action me, please :) 14:38:49 jaypipes: but if aveiga_ writes a use-case everybody is invited to review 14:38:58 of course. 14:39:22 it won't hurt to have both 14:39:30 not all the ML readers are watching our repo for use cases 14:39:49 #action aveiga_ sum up outcome of VLAN and MPLS breakout session for the ML 14:41:15 all right, any thing else? 14:43:29 seems we are done for today 14:43:34 thanks all! 14:43:43 thanks for running the meeting, mkoderer! 14:43:43 #endmeeting
