B.3 NSI measurement job creation

28.5503GPPManagement and orchestrationPerformance assuranceRelease 18TS

This Figure B.3-1 illustrates an example of procedure for creating a measurement job for NSI(s).

This procedure is only applicable for the scenario where the NSI measurement type(s) can be decomposed into the measurement data type(s) of the constituent NSSI(s) or NF(s).

Figure B.3-1: Example of procedure for NSI measurement job creation

1a. The authorized consumer invokes the CreateMeasurementJob operation (see clause 6.1.1) to NSI measurement job control service producer to request creation of a measurement job for NSI(s).

2. The NSI measurement job control service producer decomposes the measurement type(s) of each NSI to the measurement type(s) of the constituent NSSI(s) and/or NF(s), and checks if new measurement type(s) need to be collected for the constituent NSSI(s) and/or NF(s).

3. For each constituent NSSI to be measured, if new measurements type(s) need to be collected, the NSI measurement job control service producer acts as consumer of the NSSI measurement job control service, and requests the corresponding NSSI measurement job control service producer to request creation of measurement job for the NSSI (according to the procedure as illustrated in clause B.2).

It is also possible to create one measurement job to collect the performance data for multiple NSSI(s).

4. For each constituent NF to be measured, if new measurements type(s) need to be collected, the NSI measurement job control service producer acts as consumer of NF measurement job control service, and requests the corresponding NF measurement job control service producer to request creation of measurement job for the NF (according to the NF measurement job creation procedure as illustrated in clause B.1).

It is also possible to create one measurement job to collect the performance data for multiple NF(s).

1b. The NSI measurement job control service producer returns the result of CreateMeasurementJob operation (see clause 6.1.1) to the consumer.

If the NSI measurement job is successfully created, the NSI measurement job control service producer will collect the performance data for the constituent NSSI(s) and/or NF(s) accordingly, generate the measurement results for the measured NSI(s) and make the measurement results available to the NSI performance data reporting service producer for each reporting period.
