+MultiCloud Resources Capacity Check API
+=======================================
+
+To better expose VIM capabilities and available resources capacity to external
+consumer, some extensions need to be done by MultiCloud.
+
+
+Problem Description
+===================
+
+Current MultiCloud didn't expose any standard API/methods to check/publish the
+resources capacity for each VIM, which makes external project can not realize
+the capacity information of VIM. When a VIM with shortage resources was chosen
+to deploy a bunch of VNFs, it will fail eventually. Exposing these information
+will could let external project to make a better decision on choosing which VIM
+to deploy the VNFs.
+
+
+Propose Change
+==============
+
+Cloud Locations
+---------------
+
+Cloud latitude and longitude information is needed by OOF to determine the
+distance between vGMuxInfra and vG. The latitude and longitude information
+are part of A&AI complex schema[A&AI Complex Schema]_, which related to
+cloud-region schema.
+
+There is no change needed to MultiCloud, but cloud administrator need to
+input these information when register a new VIM. Currently ESR Portal don't
+expose these input forms to cloud administrator, need ESR team to add related
+workflow to create complex data in A&AI and create a relationship between
+location information and cloud-region record.
+
+... [A&AI Complex Schema] https://gerrit.onap.org/r/gitweb?p=aai/aai-common.git;a=blob;f=aai-schema/src/main/resources/oxm/aai_oxm_v12.xml;h=e146c06ac675a1127ee11205c0ff2544e4d9a81d;hb=HEAD#l772

+
+Available Resource Check
+------------------------
+
+A new API will be used by OOF to check the available cloud resources, which
+will help OOF to make a better placement decision. OOF will give a resrouces
+requirement of a specific deployment and a list of VIMs which need to be
+check whether have enough resources for this deployment. The ouput of
+Multicloud will be a list of VIMs which have enough resources.
+
+There will be two part of APIs for this requirement, an check_vim_capacity API
+will be added to MultiCloud borker to return a list of VIMs, another
+API <vim_id>/capacity_check will be added to each MultiCloud plugins, and return
+true or false based on whether the VIM have enought resources. When MultiCloud
+broker receive a POST request on check_vim_capacity, it will request to each
+<vim_id>/capacity_check API, and return a list of VIMs with a true in response
+data.
+
+
+Input of check_vim_capacity will be
+
+::
+ {
+ "vCPU": int, // number of cores
+ "Memory": float, // size of memory, GB
+ "Storage": int, //GB
+ "VIMs": array // VIMs OOF wish to check with
+ }
+
+Output of check_vim_capacity will be
+
+::
+ {
+ "VIMs": array // VIMs satisfy with this resource requirement
+ }
+
+Input of <vim_id>/capacity_check will be
+
+::
+ {
+ "vCPU": int,
+ "Memory": float,
+ "Storage": int,
+ }
+
+
+Output of <vim_id>/capacity_check will be
+
+::
+ {
+ "result": bool
+ }
+
+
+Work Items
+==========
+
+#. Work with ESR team for location inport form.
+#. Add check_vim_capacity API to MultiCloud Broker.
+#. Add check_vim_capacity API to each MultiCloud Plugins. \ No newline at end of file
