As such, it should be capable of recovering from +unexpected failures of its components. In case of a major failure, it should be +able to restore its last known internal state after an unexpected system +shutdown. + +As part of this recovery strategy it might be useful identifying: +- Which sub-components (inside each of the current modules) are intended to +store permanent information (databases, repositories) or should be considered +stateful. +- Which sub-components are stateless (or can recover efficiently their state +from databases or stateful components) and devise bootstrap procedures for them. +- The flow by which databases and the state of the different components should +be recovered after a crash. +- If applicable, the restart sequence of the modules after a crash, i.e. if +they need to be started in a specific order. + +## Demo or definition of done ## +In a running OSM system with an instantiated NS, an abrupt shutdown of all the +OSM components is forced (e.g. of the VM/host); then, the system is restarted +and recovers the last known state, allowing OSM to operate the pre-existing NS +instance again. \ No newline at end of file -- 2.25.1
