Policy Control Loop Coordination - POC
**************************************
.. contents::
:depth: 3
What is the Control Loop Coordinator?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The Control Loop Coordinator (CLC) is a facility embedded within Policy that provides:
* Abstractions enabling an operator to specify how ONAP/ECOMP will coordinate the interactions between a given pair of Control Loop Functions (CLFs);
* Mechanisms to ensure coordination directives are correctly enforced by ONAP/ECOMP at run-time.
How does the CLC work?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The table below illustrates conflict between two CLFs at the functional and architectural views and resolution of that conflict via introduction of the CLC.
+-----------+-------------------------+-----------------------+

How is the CLC implemented?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. _template.demo.clc: https://git.onap.org/policy/drools-applications/tree/controlloop/templates/template.demo.clc
.. _synthetic_control_loop_one_blocks_synthetic_control_loop_two.xml: https://git.onap.org/policy/drools-applications/tree/controlloop/templates/template.demo.clc/src/test/resources/xacml/synthetic_control_loop_one_blocks_synthetic_control_loop_two.xml
.. _policy_ControlLoop_SyntheticOne.yaml: https://git.onap.org/policy/drools-applications/tree/controlloop/templates/template.demo.clc/src/test/resources/yaml/policy_ControlLoop_SyntheticOne.yaml
.. _policy_ControlLoop_SyntheticTwo.yaml: https://git.onap.org/policy/drools-applications/tree/controlloop/templates/template.demo.clc/src/test/resources/yaml/policy_ControlLoop_SyntheticTwo.yaml
.. _xacml_guard_clc.properties: https://git.onap.org/policy/drools-applications/tree/controlloop/templates/template.demo.clc/src/test/resources/xacml/xacml_guard_clc.properties
.. _ControlLoopEventManager: https://git.onap.org/policy/drools-applications/tree/controlloop/templates/template.demo.clc/src/main/resources/__closedLoopControlName__.drl#n210
Example code is provided at `template.demo.clc`_. The abstraction implemented for the initial release is simply a XACML policy (e.g., `synthetic_control_loop_one_blocks_synthetic_control_loop_two.xml`_) that matches against one CLF (e.g., `policy_ControlLoop_SyntheticOne.yaml`_) and checks the status of another CLF (e.g., `policy_ControlLoop_SyntheticTwo.yaml`_) via provided PIPs. The following release will provide a much more succinct YAML representation consisting of coordination_directive_type, control_loop_one_id, control_loop_two_id, and, optionally, one or more parameters, the semantics of which are defined by the coordination_directive_type.
The following figure provides a detailed overview of the call flow as implemented:

How do you run the example?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
From within `template.demo.clc`_ run
.. code-block:: bash
$ mvn test -Dtest=ControlLoopCoordinationTest
**NOTE:** When incorporating this example code into your own application, the XACML policies implementing the coordination directives must be included in the XACML .properties file used by the ONAP/ECOMP controller instance (e.g., `xacml_guard_clc.properties`_). The CLF’s drl file must also contain the following modification, to be included after the creation of the `ControlLoopEventManager`_.
.. code-block:: bash
// Disable target locking
//
manager.setUseTargetLock(false);
