Onboarding a VNFC to the orchestration component

Onboarding is the process of loading details of a VNFC into the orchestration component and the resource manager, so that both can manage the VNFC.

About this task

The steps taken to onboard a VNFC are:
  • Build a package from the source folders of the VNFC.
  • Upload the package to the orchestration component so that it can now handle that VNFC type.

Procedure

You onboard a VNFC by running a command in the project folder to deploy this VNFC to the “dev” environment.
The VNFC descriptor is pushed to the orchestration component and the Brent resource manager.
lmctl project push dev
