Closed Loop is a concept where when certain conditions are observed in the network by a component, messages are sent to a particular controller that then responds to those conditions. No manual intervention is needed. Thus the 'loop' is closed automatically. Closed Loop services are configured in the CLAMP UI, which is a non-DCAE component.
There is no specific configuration in the component specification for closed loop services, and currently it is a manual process between the developer and the CLAMP support team, to discuss which configuration parameters are affected. These parameters can also be policy editable.
Refer to the Configuration Grid for more information.
