CSCwb77224	NFM NodeLifecycle instantiation no longer works

Problem Description

For BroadWorks Network Function Manager (NFM) that runs Release Independent version 2022.04, the NodeLifecycle application is not able to instantiate a BroadWorks node.

Background

When the NFM node lifecycle management is used to instantiate a node, the operation fails because the License Manager Daemon (LMD) cannot reach out to the NFM. Therefore, the instantiated node cannot get its license from the NFM.

Problem Symptom

Node instantiation fails and the log shows Failed to get license from NFM.
