Description

Understanding of multi-level fault correlation techniques for NFV fault identification, localization, and root cause analysis.

HT#3 (REL) End-to-End Fault Correlation

Status

ACTIVE

What is expected to be learnt from the NFV PoCs

Points to prove/refute

What architectural choices for fault correlation exist and what are their benefits?
Where (in which components) to place local correlation entities?
What are the main limitations?
What has been made in the PoC(s) to overcome those limitations?
Updates to suggest to NFV architectural framework if any?

Criterion of success

• Fault localization and identification of various challenges on the different layers of the NFV reference architecture within a pre-defined time limits

Technical information to be provided by the PoC Team

What faults and challenges on the various levels have been addressed by the PoC?
Does the solution require active, passive or hybrid monitoring?
What extensions are required for the existing NFV components to propagate fault notifications and alarms for effective fault correlation?

PoC Teams shall follow the HT#3-Feedback Template on their contributions to Hot Topic#3
