Some questions/remarks on the v2 connection wsdl
by Henrik Thostrup Jensen 13 Dec '12

13 Dec '12

Hi Found a couple of things in the v2 CS WSDL. Mostly minor stuff. The types: GlobalReservationIdType ( restriction base: xsd:anyURI ) ConnectionIdType ( restriction base: xsd:string ) NetworkIdType ( restriction base: xsd:anyURI ) Seems to just be aliases. Are there any reason for having them? The file ogf_nsi_connection_types_v2_0.xsd import saml, but does not appear to use it. I'm guessing this is just a leftover from when the security attributes was in the file. Not sure of the implications of removing this, but would be nice if we could avoid breakage. OTOH we will probably have to live with these things for a while, and will probably not get another chance to fix it. Questions: Why do we need protocol version in Header? Isn't this already contained in SOAP action? Do we really need a file ( ogf_nsi_framework_headers_v2_0.xsd ) for one type? Not really important, just seemed like overkill.

Error code and serviceException
by Henrik Thostrup Jensen 12 Dec '12

12 Dec '12

Hi everyone I was doing some error handling stuff in OpenNSA and realized that we probably didn't close that one properly after Oxford. These are also pretty important to get into an appendix in the standard, so we can do proper error handling in the imeplementations. Here are the error code that I presented in Oxford: PAYLOAD_ERROR 00100 MISSING_PARAMETER 00101 NOT_IMPLEMENTED 00102 CONNECTION_ERROR 00200 INVALID_TRANSITION 00201 CONNECTION_EXISTS 00202 CONNECTION_NONEXISTENT 00203 CONNECTION_GONE 00204 SECURITY_ERROR 00300 UNAUTHORIZED 00301 TOPOLOGY_ERROR 00400 UNKNOWN_STP 00401 STP_RESOLUTION_ERROR 00402 NO_PATH_FOUND 00403 INTERNAL_ERROR 00500 INTERNAL_NRM_ERROR 00501 RESOURCE_UNAVAILABLE 00600 STP_UNAVALABLE 00601 BANDWIDTH_UNAVAILABLE 00602 I _think_ we agreed to them without to much fuzz. The idea is that we can add new errors without changing the protocol and that a new resource unavailable code (say 00603, can be generalized into 00600 if the implementation does not know 00603). I think we also need a failure to indicate that a connection could not be created due to a downstream NSA being unavailable or similar. I cannot think of a good name though, but it belongs under 00200 / CONNECTION_ERROR. Maybe CONNECTION_CREATE_ERROR / 00205. Note that it is the error codes (the numbers) that should be specified in the errorId field in the nsi:serviceException. The names should not be transmitted. Previously some have used 'SVC' as a prefix to the error codes (to indicate service failure), but I am not sure if we agreed on anything for NSI2 (I don't see the need @John: Maybe you could put the error codes in the WSDL documentation. Finally, right now, variables is mandatory in nsi:serviceException, however not all errors need to be related to a variable (downstream NSA unavailable), so I suggest we make variables optional.
