In this phase, the same PDU +cannot be used twice (in the future we might review this approach). + +## Demo or definition of done ## +- Successful onboarding of a (V)NF that has 1 VDU and 1 PDU. For instance, in +the (V)NF, the VDU could be an SDN controller and the PDU a small physical +switch. +- Addition a PDUs in datacenter A of a given type. +- Successful deployment of a NS with the (V)NF in datacenter A. +- Unsuccessful deployment of a second instance of the same NS in the datacenter +A (not enough resources available of that PDU type). +- Unsuccessful deployment of the same NS in another datacenter (no PDUs of that +type available). \ No newline at end of file -- 2.25.1
