+# ONAP ccsdk-oran A1 Policy Management Service
+
+The A1 Policy Management Service provides a REST API for management of policies.
+It provides support for:
+ -Supervision of clients (R-APPs) to eliminate stray policies in case of failure
+ -Consistency monitoring of the SMO view of policies and the actual situation in the RICs
+ -Consistency monitoring of RIC capabilities (policy types)
+ -Policy configuration. This includes:
+  -One REST API towards all RICs in the network
+  -Query functions that can find all policies in a RIC, all policies owned by a service (R-APP),
+   all policies of a type etc.
+  -Maps O1 resources (ManagedElement) as defined in O1 to the controlling RIC
+
+The Policy Management Service uses the default keystore and truststore that are built into the container. The paths and passwords for these stores are located in a yaml file:
+oran/a1-policy-management/config/application.yaml
+
+There is also Policy Management Service's own cert in the default truststore for mocking purposes and unit-testing (ApplicationTest.java).
+
+The default keystore, truststore, and application.yaml files can be overridden by mounting new files using the "volumes" field of docker-compose or docker run command.
+
+Assuming that the keystore, truststore, and application.yaml files are located in the same directory as docker-compose, the volumes field should have these entries:
+
+volumes:
+      - ./new_keystore.jks:/opt/app/policy-agent/etc/cert/keystore.jks:ro
+      - ./new_truststore.jks:/opt/app/policy-agent/etc/cert/truststore.jks:ro
+      - ./new_application.yaml:/opt/app/policy-agent/config/application.yaml:ro
+
+The target paths in the container should not be modified.
+
+Example docker run command for mounting new files (assuming they are located in the current directory):
+docker run -p 8081:8081 -p 8433:8433 --name=PMS-container --network=oran-docker-net --volume "$PWD/new_keystore.jks:/opt/app/policy-agent/etc/cert/keystore.jks" --volume "$PWD/new_truststore.jks:/opt/app/policy-agent/etc/cert/truststore.jks" --volume "$PWD/new_application.yaml:/opt/app/policy-agent/config/application.yaml" onap/ccsdk-oran-a1policymanagementservice:1.0.0-SNAPSHOT
+
+To Run Policy Management Service in Local:
+In the folder /opt/app/policy-agent/config/, create a soft link with below command,
+ln -s <path to test_application_configuration.json> application_configuration.json
+
+To Run Policy Management Service in Local with the DMaaP polling turned on:
+In the folder /opt/app/policy-agent/config/, create a soft link with below command,
+ln -s <path to test_application_configuration_with_dmaap_config.json> application_configuration.json
+
+The Policy Management Service can be run stand alone in a simulated test mode. Then it simulates RICs.
+The REST API is published on port 8081 and it is started by command:
+mvn -Dtest=MockPolicyManagementService test
+
+The backend server publishes live API documentation at the
+URL `http://your-host-name-here:8081/swagger-ui.html`
+
+The Policy Management Service uses A1-POLICY-AGENT-READ & A1-POLICY-AGENT-WRITE topic for subscribe & Publish to the DMaap.
