What tasks should I complete before and after service creation?
Service creation prerequisites
Before attempting to perform any of the service creation procedures in this chapter, the following tasks should be completed to help ensure successful service provisioning:
-
Create a service management user
-
Optionally, create a user that has specific permissions when performing service management functions. For more information, see the following procedures in the NSP System Administrator Guide:
— “How do I configure a user group?
— “How do I create an NSP local user?
For more information about the different tiers of access available to service management users, see How does service management implement user access control?.
-
-
Install the required artifact bundles
-
Artifact bundles contain service intent types, which are used for building service templates. Installing the required artifact bundles will make those service intent types accessible from NSP's Network Intents views. For more information see “How do I install an artifact bundle?” in the NSP Network Automation Guide.
For more information the relationship between NSP's service management and network intents functions, see How do service management and network intents interact?.
-
-
Import the service intent types into service management
-
With the service intent types installed into network intents, they can now be imported into service management. For detailed instructions, see How do I import an intent type into Service Management?.
-
-
-
Using an imported intent type, create a template that will be used when creating service tunnels. For detailed instructions, see How do I create a tunnel template?.
-
-
-
Using a created tunnel template, create a service tunnel that will be used by services. For detailed instructions, see How do I create a service tunnel?.
-
-
-
Using an imported intent type, create a template that will be used when creating services. For detailed instructions, see How do I create a service template?.
-
When these tasks are complete, you may perform one of the service creation procedures in this chapter.
Post-service creation tasks
After completing any of the service creation procedures in this chapter, the following tasks can be completed, as required:
-
Generate and execute OAM test suites
-
Optionally, generate and execute OAM test suites against the objects of your service. For more information, see “How do I configure an OAM test suite for a service?” in the NSP Network and Service Assurance Guide and “How do I create an OAM test suite?” in the NSP Data Collection and Analysis Guide.
-
-
Create telemetry subscriptions
-
Optionally, configure telemetry collection. The nsp-telemetry-cr-va-sros artifact bundle must be imported and installed prior to attempting this. For more information, see “How do I install telemetry artifacts?” and “How do I manage subscriptions?” in the NSP Data Collection and Analysis Guide.
-
-
Create a telemetry chart and plot statistics
-
Optionally, chart historical telemetry data. For more information, see “How do I plot a telemetry chart?” in the NSP Data Collection and Analysis Guide.
