4.1 Prepare OpenStack Template and Environment Files

This procedure gathers required templates and environment files to provide while deploying NOAM or signaling stacks.
Prerequisites

All the respective infrastructures has to be up and running.

  1. Log in to the Oracle Document Repository.
  2. Select the respective DSR release folder.
    Example: Release 8.6.0.0.0
  3. Download the HEAT Templates zip file under Cloud Installation and Upgrade section.
  4. Unzip the HEAT templates to a folder.
    1. Create a new folder with any name for storing the HEAT templates under the home directory.

      Example: /home/heat_templates

    2. Store the downloaded HEAT templates zip file in the folder.

      Example: /home/heat_templates/exampleHeat.zip

    3. Unzip the downloaded heat templates.
      unzip /home/heat_templates/exampleHeat.zip
  5. Determine the template and environment files.
    Below are possible deployment use cases of DSR. The HEAT templates contain files for all scenarios. Determine the appropriate template and environment files with respect to your requirement.

    Note:

    Currently, SS7 MPs are not supported. Refer to Example Parameter File.
