| Create a Service |
| ---------------- |
| |
| **Prerequisites:** Create VFs required for this service (see :ref:`vfcreation-and-testing`). |
| |
| #. From the SDC HOME page, hover over Add and select Add Service. |
| #. In the General section, complete all fields. |
| |
| Note: Use the letters "Svc" in the name to indicate that the |
| component is a service. |
| |
| #. Click Create. |
| |
| A message displays when VF creation is complete. |
| |
| #. Click Composition. |
| |
| For a description of the Composition section (see \ `Composition |
| (Service design) <https://wiki.onap.org/x/lIwP>`__ ). |
| |
| #. Drag one or more elements from the Elements palette to the canvas. |
| #. To connect elements: |
| |
| #. Hover over an element and then hover over \ |image2|. |
| |
| Other elements that can connect to this element are highlighted. |
| |
| #. Drag to a highlighted element on the canvas. |
| #. Select options for Requirements and Capabilities. |
| #. Click Connect. |
| |
| #. To add artifacts at the service level: |
| |
| #. Click an empty area in the canvas and click Deployment Artifacts |
| (right pane). |
| #. Click \ |image3|. |
| #. Select the type. |
| #. Click Browse, locate a file to upload, and click Open. |
| #. Complete all other fields. |
| #. Click Done. |
| |
| Use this function to add YANG artifacts for distribution to SDNC. |
| |
| #. Click Check In to save changes. |
| |
| A box displays for confirming the changes. |
| |
| #. Enter a comment and click OK. |
| |
| A message displays when the VF is checked in. |
| |
| #. [Optional] At any time before submitting the service for testing, |
| click these options to update service information: |
| |
| - Icon — change the icon associated with the service |
| - TOSCA Artifacts — view and edit artifacts, such as the .csar file |
| and TOSCA template |
| - Composition — view or edit the graphical representation of the |
| service-level TOSCA model |
| - Activity Log — view activity related to the service |
| - Workflow — model service lifecycle workflows for execution in SO |
| (see `Create a Workflow [optional]`_) |
| - Network Call Flow — model interactions among VFs (see `Create a |
| Network Callflow [optional]`_) |
| - Deployment — view HEAT modules in VSPs |
| - Inputs — select parameters as input fields during VID |
| instantiation (see `Select VID Inputs [optional]`_). |
| |
| #. After creating a service and configuring optional fields, submit it |
| for testing (see `Submit a Service for Testing`_). |
| |
| |
| Create a Workflow [optional] |
| ---------------------------- |
| |
| Create a workflow to model the SO recipes of the service life cycle such |
| as instantiation, upgrade, termination, or suspension of a service or |
| VNF. In the workflow each of the Activity, represent API calls to |
| various ONAP components (such as OOF, SDN-C, App-C, etc) that perform a |
| business function needed. |
| |
| Note: The information collected in this section is represented in BPMN |
| format and included in distributed service model. |
| |
| **Prerequisites:** All the required ActivitySpec as supported by SO |
| are registered in SDC. |
| |
| #. From the SDC HOME page, click WORKFLOW. |
| #. Click Add Workflow. |
| #. The Create New Workflow box displays. |
| #. Complete all fields. |
| #. Click Create. |
| #. Specify Inputs & Outputs of Workflow |
| #. Define the Composition of Workflow. |
| |
| #. All the Tasks in the composition are expected to be ServiceTask |
| for using Activities defined in SO. |
| #. Select the Implementation in the Task "general" tab to Activity. |
| #. Select the required ActivitySpec. |
| |
| #. Mark the workflow as executable by selecting the Executable flag in |
| the workflow "general" tab. |
| #. Click Save. |
| #. Certify the Workflow. |
| |
| Create a Network Callflow [optional] |
| ------------------------------------ |
| |
| Create a network callflow to model the interactions among VFs within a |
| service, such how VFs interact to deliver a service while the service is |
| being consumed. In the model, lifelines represent VFs. |
| |
| Note: The information collected in this section is not distributed with |
| the service model. |
| |
| **Prerequisites:** `Create a service`_ |
| |
| #. From the SDC HOME page, click CATALOG and search for a service. |
| #. Click the service and click Check Out. |
| #. Click Network Call Flow. |
| #. Click Add Workflow. |
| The Create New Workflow box displays. |
| #. Complete all fields. |
| #. Click Save. |
| #. In the new workflow pane, click the Lifelines icon. |
| |
| The LIFELINES/STEPS view displays. |
| |
| #. To add a lifeline (component), do the following: |
| |
| #. Click LIFELINES to expand the pane. |
| #. Click Add Lifeline. |
| #. In the [Unnamed Lifeline field], enter a name for the lifeline. |
| #. To add other lifelines to the workflow, repeat the actions above. |
| |
| #. After creating all required lifelines, do the following to add a step |
| (showing an action between two lifelines): |
| |
| #. Under STEPS (left pane), click Add Message. |
| An unnamed step is added under STEPS. |
| #. In the [Unnamed Message] field, enter a name or message for the |
| step. |
| #. From the component and arrow dropdown lists, select the two |
| components that communicate in this step, and the arrow to show in |
| which direction the communication flows. |
| #. To add another step, repeat the actions above. |
| |
| #. [Optional] Change the order of steps by clicking a step and dragging |
| it to the preferred position. |
| #. Click Save. |
| #. Click Check In to save changes. |
| |
| Select VID Inputs [optional] |
| ---------------------------- |
| |
| Select parameters as input fields during |
| `VID <https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/Glossary#Glossary-VID>`__ |
| instantiation. |
