Creating a VNF at a Specific Zone or Compute Node/Host (Hypervisor) with Custom Metadata #150

Open erolozcan opened 7 years ago

erolozcan commented 7 years ago

Hi,

We need to create a VNF a specific zone or compute node/host (hypervisor) using the OpenBaton NFVO interface. I looked the source code of the OpenBaton, VimDriverCaller does not support avability-zone parameter of the OpenStack.

We also need support custom Metadata (key, value) information of VNFD.

VimDriver implementation of the OpenStack (openstack4j/jcloud) has already supporting these features.

Do you have any plan to support these features near future?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

extending the VIM driver interface is on our roadmap for release 5 (planned for 10.2017), especially because we would like to be able to manage also containers. This particular requirement will be considered. However, please keep in mind that we switched our openstack-plugin implementation to openstack4j instead of jcloud, mainly because of support of Keystone V3 APIs. Considering that open baton supports multiple plugins in parallel, you could still decide to maintain yourself the jcloud version.

We do not have time to wait for release 5. We started to implement these feature. Do you have any advice how to implement to these features? Your advice could made easy to contribute our implementation to the OpenBaton project.
