What is artifact support in NSP?
Artifacts overview
NSP may require artifacts to be installed in order to perform specific functions. For example, the NE upgrade operation requires a series of workflows. The functional area within NSP that the artifact is designed to support is called the target function, or simply, target.
NSP facilitates the tracking and management of NSP artifacts and artifact bundles by providing one location and one method for managing artifacts and artifact bundles in your system.
Obtaining artifacts
Depending on your feature packages, a set of artifacts and bundles is included with your NSP installation. Additional or updated artifact bundles can be downloaded from the Nokia Electronic Delivery service and stored on your local system. Navigate through the hierarchy to choose NSP, then the release you need, then Artifacts.
Available artifacts can include updated workflows, predefined intent types, and operation types.
Artifacts can be delivered or updated outside the NSP release cycle.
Compatible artifacts
NSP can manage artifacts for which a target deployer is available. Other types of artifacts must be installed using scripts; see the documentation for the artifact.
The following table shows the artifact types that are currently compatible with NSP.
