+Control Loop Design
+===================
+**Goal:** Create and distribute closed-loop models for automating:
+ * recovery of faults reported by traps or alarms
+ * capacity management as performance thresholds are crossed
+
+**Tool:** SDC/DCAE-DS/CLAMP
+
+**SDC user role:** Designer
+
+Closed loops use feedback to control and optimize their behavior.
+A closed loop can proactively respond to network and service conditions
+without human intervention.
+
+There are different phases to the Closed Loop (CL) design:
+
+ #. Design a closed loop template and associate it to a Service,
+ the template represents the theoretical flow of the CL. (DCAE-DS/SDC)
+
+ #. generate a deployment artifact that can be ingested by the DCAE,
+ today it is a "cloudify" blueprint.
+
+ #. Distribute the control loop to CLAMP and DCAE, the csar is distributed
+ to CLAMP, the blueprint is distributed to both CLAMP and DCAE. (SDC)
+ #. Submit the closed loop, meaning provision Policy/DCAE with
+ closed loop data. (CLAMP)
+ #. Deploy the closed loop, it initiates the deployment of the micro
+ service on DCAE side (CLAMP)
+
+*Release 1 (Amsterdam)* includes control loop template designer in Clamp UI.
+
+*Release 2 (Bejing)* does not include the control loop template designer
+in Clamp UI, this is implemented in DCAE-DS.
+
+**Steps**
+
+ * `Design a Model`_
+ * `Configure Collector`_
+ * `Configure Alarm Detector`_
+ * `Configure Data Analytics Function`_
+ * `Configure Policy`_
+ * `Distribute the Model`_
+ * `Open Loop Design`_
+
+Design a Model
+--------------
+
+.. note::
+ When required, contact the DCAE Group (see `Mailing Lists <https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/Mailing+Lists>`_) to
+ confirm that a blueprint for the Service has been generated and
+ is available on DCAE.
+
+**Prerequisites:** Create and test a VF
+(see :ref:`VF Creation and Testing <user-guides-service-design>`).
+
+ #. Create and name a new model
+ #. Associate a Service with the model
+ #. Based on the service, provide values for its attributes
+ #. Select the Resource-VF and Resource-VFC to associate with the model
+ #. Select one or more locations in the cloud where the
+ closed loop will be deployed
+ #. Here is a view of a hypothetical visual design tool
+ showing loop modeling components:
+
+ |image0|
+
+ #. Use the tool to select and connect components,
+ thus defining the structure of the model
+ #. Configure each of the components of the model
+
+ #. `Configure Collector`_
+ #. `Configure Alarm Detector`_
+ #. `Configure Data Analytics Function`_
+ #. `Configure Policy`_
+
+Configure Collector
+-------------------
+
+**Prerequisites:** `Design a Model`_.
+
+Using the modeling tool, assign a message topic to which this
+component will subscribe.
+
+Configure Alarm Detector
+------------------------
+
+**Prerequisites:** `Design a Model`_.
+
+Using the modeling tool, configure the fields described in this table:

++------------+----------------------------+-------------------------------+
+
+
+Distribute the Model
+--------------------
+
+**Prerequisites:** `Design a Model`_.
+
+In this step, the user distributes the models to the DCAE and
+Policy subsystems of ONAP.
+
+After a model is uploaded to a VNF, the status icon of the VNF changes
+to from "Design" to "Activated" in the ONAP Portal GUI.
+
+Open Loop Design
+----------------
+
+Create and distribute open control loops for managing VF faults and
+performance after instantiation.
+
+With open loop control systems, the action(s) taken by the Policy do
+not affect the output of the system.
+
+For information about creating policy using the Policy Designer,
+see :ref:`Policy Design <user-guides-service-design>`.

+Pre-Onboarding
+==============
+
+ * `Create a Tenant`_
+ * `Validate VFs (Virtual Functions)`_
+ * `Generate Manifest and Package Artifacts`_
+
+Create a Tenant
+---------------
+
+Each service requires a tenant_ (a group of users who share a common access)
+in which resources are stored in the cloud. This process is performed using
+facilities of the network cloud, outside of ONAP. Confirm that the tenant is
+created and note the tenant ID.
+
+ONAP admin users can configure a cloud-owner to add new cloud resources.
+These are the computing and networking resources, that will support
+running VNFs. A cloud-owner holds a keystone URL, login, region and
+password, in the case of an Openstack cluster. A cloud-owner also
+belongs to a region. The region name should be the same as the Openstack
+region. Prior to creation of a cloud-owner, its region must be created
+first. Multiple tenants can share the same cloud-owner. Note that these
+tenants are ONAP tenants, not Openstack tenants. Tenant register
+services that customers are allowed to deploy. Finally, the customer is
+like an instance of the tenant.
+
+Note: there is no GUI (yet) to configure these objects. REST requests
+are sent to AAI to achieve the configuration. For a detailed list of
+required REST commands see:
+
+https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/running+vFW+Demo+on+ONAP+Amsterdam+Release
+
+The overall process is as follows:
+
+ #. Create a region and a cloud-owner. This steps registers Openstack
+ credentials. This is the only step requiring entering Openstack specific
+ parameters.
+
+ #. Create a complex. The complex describes the coverage of the region with
+ a street address etc.
+
+ #. Create a service. The service name should match the name of the service
+ onboarded in SDC.
+
+ #. Create a tenant. Tenant in ONAP stores a design for a generic customer.
+
+ #. Associate tenants with their allowed services.
+
+ #. Create an instance of the tenant or customer. The customer is visible in
+ VID. A VID user can deploy allowed services on this new customer.
+
+ |image1|
+
+
+Validate VFs (Virtual Functions)
+--------------------------------
+
+Prior to resource onboarding, the Certification Group does the following:
+
+ - onboards the Heat template(s) and metadata to the SDC catalog
+ - creates a test VF
+ - runs the Heat scanning tools
+ - shares the results with any group that approves Virtual Functions
+
+In parallel, the Certification Group onboards the VF Image and OS to a
+standalone ONAP instance (the "sandbox") and performs the following:
+
+ - security scan
+ - compatibility test for the OS and vendor binary
+ - malware scan
+
+The Certification group then instantiates the VF image using the vendor
+Heat (if provided) in order to validate that the VM can run on the Network
+Cloud.
+
+No VF functionality testing is performed at this stage.
+
+
+Generate Manifest and Package Artifacts
+---------------------------------------
+
+Before onboarding resources, run generate-manifest.py to generate a
+MANIFEST file. These steps are performed outside SDC.
+
+OBSOLETE: **Prerequisites:** Obtain Heat/ENV files and other files required for
+onboarding. See the reference document `VNF Heat Template Requirements
+for OpenECOMP <https://wiki.onap.org/download/attachments/1015849/VNF%20Heat%20Template%20Requirements%20for%20OpenECOMP.pdf?version=2&modificationDate=1487262292000&api=v2>`__ for details.
+
+UPDATE: see VNF Modeling Requirements / HEAT: https://onap.readthedocs.io/en/casablanca/submodules/vnfrqts/requirements.git/docs/Chapter5/Heat/index.html
+
+#. Put the Heat, ENV, nested Heat, and other files used by get-file in templates
+ in a directory.
+
+ Naming guidelines:
+
+ - The base Heat should include "base" in the name.
+ - The ENV file name should match the name of the Heat file with which it
+ is associated.
+ - All get-file file names need to be unique.
+
+#. Put the python script in a directory one level above the directory that
+ contains the Heat/ENV and other files.
+
+ For example, [dir x]/[dir y]
+
+ - [dir y] contains the Heat/ENV files and other files
+ - [dir x] contains the python script
+
+#. Run the script on the Windows command line:
+
+ .. code-block::
+
+ python generate-manifest.py -f "dir y"
+
+#. Examine the manifest file and confirm that is correct.
+
+#. Package all Heat/ENV files, all other files, and the MANIFEST.json
+ into one .zip file.

+Governance Approval and Service Distribution
+============================================
+
+Each ONAP platform operator will have a specific set of policies
+and procedures for approving Services and deploying them in the
+operator's ONAP environment. This outline describes the general
+flow of such procedures.
+
+**Goal:** Add all information required to create, instantiate, and
+manage a service.
+
+**Tools:** SDC
+
+**SDC user roles:** Governor, Ops
+
+Steps
+-----
+
+- `Review a Service for Governance Approval`_
+- `Request Service Distribution`_
+- `Distribute a Service`_
+- `Verify that the DCAE Blueprint is Deployed`_
+
+|image1|
+
+**Figure 1. Workflow**
+
+Review a Service for Governance Approval
+----------------------------------------
+
+A member of the Governance Board performs a governance review of a
+certified service and its associated VFs, and then approves (or rejects)
+the artifacts for distribution.
+
+**Prerequisites:** Service is tested.
+
+**Steps**
+
+#. Sign in to SDC as a Governor.
+#. From the HOME page, click CATALOG and select a service that is ready
+ for governance review.
+#. Review the service and its associated resources.
+#. To view deployment artifacts:
+
+ #. Click *Composition* tab (left pane) and then click the Deployment
+ Artifact icon (right pane) to see the list of artifacts.
+ #. Click the download icon adjacent to an artifact to download and
+ view it.
+
+#. When the review is complete, click:
+
+ - *Accept* if the service passes the governance review. The service is
+ marked Approved for Distribution.
+ - *Reject* if the service fails the governance review. The service is
+ marked Rejected for Distribution.
+
+After a service receives governance approval, it moves into the Waiting
+to be Distributed section of the Operations Workspace (Ops role)
+
+Request Service Distribution
+----------------------------
+
+Request service distribution to populate all appropriate ONAP
+components with the resources and artifacts ssociated with the service and its
+VFs.
+
+**Prerequisites:**
+
+A service has received governance approval and is
+available in the Waiting to be Distributed section of the SDC Operations
+Workspace (under the Ops Role). For more information, see
+`Review a Service for Governance Approval`_.
+
+The steps shown here are generic; each service provider has a different,
+specific set of instructions. Contact your site IT support for the
+particulars.
+
+**Steps**
+
+#. Open at ticket request at your site
+#. Make a "DISTRIBUTION REQUEST"
+#. Provide the following information in your request:
+
+ - Environment
+ - Name of service to be distributed
+ - Version number
+ - [Optional] Additional information or instructions (provide special
+ instructions for the request)
+ - Your user ID
+ - [Optional] Alternate Contact user ID (provide an alternate contact
+ if the primary contact is unavailable)
+
+Distribute a Service
+--------------------
+
+**Prerequisites:** The service is approved.
+
+**Steps**
+
+
+#. Sign in to SDC as Ops.
+#. In the Active Projects pane (left pane) of the HOME page, select the
+ W*aiting For Distribution* check box.
+#. Select a service that is ready for distribution.
+#. Review the version history to verify that the correct version is
+ selected.
+#. In the header, click *Distribute*.
+
+ The service moves from the Ready For Distribution folder to the
+ Distributed Services folder.
+
+#. From the Workspace pane, click *Distributed Services*.
+ All distributed services display.
+#. Select the service distributed in step 5 and click *Monitor*.
+ The Distribution Report displays.
+#. In the Distribution Report, navigate to the Component ID for the
+ service and click the adjacent down arrow.
+ The report shows all components associated with the service and their
+ distribution statuses, such as DOWNLOAD_OK.
+#. Review the status of each component.
+
+Verify that the DCAE Blueprint is Deployed
+------------------------------------------
+
+The DCAE controller requires a blueprint (or guideline) to be available
+at the site on which the first VNF is deployed. This blueprint is a
+management workflow and configuration description for a given VNF, and
+it must be available after completing the service distribution process
+and before beginning the instantiation process.
