son-validate: verification of VDU image MD5 hash #229

Open lconceicao opened 7 years ago

VNFD has the optional field "vm_image_md5" to include the md5 hash of the vdu image. In order to validate this hash, son-validate must download the VDU image file, which can be heavy and significantly slow the validation process.

Yes, a pain in performance this would be. I guess that this would only apply for the case of 'fat-packages' (i.e., those for which the image comes within the package). This is a strong push for developers to provide 'small' images, and not many GBs that deal with everything in the same VM.
