Re: [CCAMP] YANG Alarm Module in CCAMP?

[stefan vallin <[e-mail]>]

Hi All!
Thanks for reading the doc.
A couple of comments:
1) I personally agree it fits in NETMOD, but the discussion in NETMOD said we would get much more relevant input in CCAMP since there is more alarm expertise in this group. So this is circular :)
2) I do not really agree when you say "extend it with technological aspect”, “optical alarm Yang should be in the scope of CCAMP” requires a dedicated CCAMP YANG module. The tech specific alarms are “alarm types” according to the alarm-module. Those are defined as YANG identities. So the tech specific part is “only” defining the corresponding identity. No real model here, just the identities. We will have a problem if different technologies will define different alarm-modules.
3) To Petch point on "I am conscious of how much time I spent on Sharon's SMI versions, which I did not then see in the wild”.
Same here :) I took part of a couple of implementations as well.
And that is one of the main reasons why I think an Alarm YANG is critical. Why do we not see the IETF Alarm MIB in the wild?
* It came too late, all devices had proprietary ways of reporting alarms (if devices had a notion of alarms at all….). Lets do an Alarm YANG now to avoid that problem.
* Since it had to add on top of existing MIBs it became a complex alarm mapping MIB (Mapping existing notfs into an alarm model) rather than an alarm MIB. That made it very complex.

Here is a presentation

The model is based on experience from several alarm management system over the years.  It has been presented in NETMOD (reflected in the draft name), but the NETMOD chairs felt that maybe CCAMP would be a better home for this draft.
