Life Cycle Management of VNFs from the RO (Release THREE)

From the RO container, it is possible to use the CLI to do some LCM operations in VNFs of running NS instances.

Enter into RO container:

lxc exec RO bash
export OPENMANO_TENANT=osm     #in case that env variable was not set

Use the following command to list the running NS instances in the RO (the name should match the one in the UI):

openmano instance-scenario-list
2e8e2112-e31c-11e6-8c1b-00163e3fa023   MyNS

Use the following command to get more details on a specific running NS instance in the RO:

openmano instance-scenario-list MyNS
2e8e2112-e31c-11e6-8c1b-00163e3fa023   MyNS                 2017-01-25T16:34:46

VM instances:
    2e8e2115-e31c-11e6-8c1b-00163e3fa023   cirros_vnfd__1       cirros_vnfd-VM       ACTIVE       VIM ID: c8835fb5-5123-4c78-bd99-1ba5961d13d7

Then you can run the following commands:

#To shutdown a specific VNF instance
openmano instance-scenario-action MyNS shutdown --vnf cirros_vnfd__1
#To start a specific VNF instance
openmano instance-scenario-action MyNS start --vnf cirros_vnfd__1
#To shutdown a specific VM instance using its ID
openmano instance-scenario-action MyNS shutdown --vm 2e8e2115-e31c-11e6-8c1b-00163e3fa023
#To start a specific VM instance using its ID
openmano instance-scenario-action MyNS start --vm 2e8e2115-e31c-11e6-8c1b-00163e3fa023

You can check other available actions with the command:

openmano instance-scenario-action -h
