Configuring the Cluster Load Attribute
This section describes how to enable PCF to send the cluster load information in the heartbeat request.
To configure the ability that allows PCF to send the cluster load and loadTimeStamp parameters in the heartbeat request to the NRF, use the following configuration:
config
group
nf-mgmt [ name ]
load-report-enabled [ false | true ]
end
NOTES:
-
group —Enters the group configuration mode.
-
nf-mgmt [ name ] —Specify the management group that is associated to a network function.
-
load-report-enabled [ false | true ] —Configures the ability to send the cluster load size in the heartbeat service request. The default value is set to true.
The registration request may fail if the cluster load size (cluster memory usage and cluster CPU usage) is unavailable in the request. In such situations, you can disable the capability by setting this attribute to false.
In the registration and heartbeat requests, added a
loadtimestamp
attribute along with theload
attribute indicating the point in time in which the latest load information (sent by the NF in theload
attribute of the NF Profile) was generated at the NF Instance.
