If the database upgrade fails, go to S108 to perform the rollback operation and the upgrade fails.
  • S106, S107 After the new version of the VNFM data is successfully upgraded, the new version of the VNFM service is started. If the startup is successful, the upgrade is successful. If the startup fails, go to S108 to perform the rollback operation and the upgrade fails.
  • S108 The version rollback operation deletes the newly installed VNFM, restores the backed up files to the original directory, and starts the VNFM service.
  • this upgrade method needs to stop the VNFM service at the beginning. After that, a series of file copy processing is required, and then the upgrade installation is performed. When an abnormality occurs during the upgrade process, the backup file needs to be backed up. Copying back increases the time it takes for the VNFM service to be interrupted.
  • VNFM When telecom equipment implements NFV, the number of VNFs is very large. In order to ensure the processing performance of VNFM, there is a limit to the number of VNFs managed by VNFM.

Description

一种虚拟化网络功能管理升级方法、装置及服务器 技术领域
本文涉及通讯领域,尤其涉及一种虚拟化网络功能管理升级方法、装置及服务器。
背景技术
在IT(Information Technology,信息技术)领域虚拟化、云计算等技术迅速发展的背景下,电信运营商为了应对网络服务商对运营商的冲击,提升需求而提出NFV(Network Function Virtualization,网络功能虚拟化),旨在通过基于行业标准的通用服务器、存储设备和交换设备,来取代通信网内私有专用的网元设备,最终降低运营商的投资和运营成本。
根据ETSI(European Telecommunications Standards Institute,欧洲电信标准化协会)的规范要求,在NFV-MANO(NFV Management and Orchestration,网络功能虚拟化管理与编排)域定义一套VNF(Virtualization Network Function,虚拟化网络功能)的自动化部署规范,其中,NFVO(Network Functions Virtualization Orchestrator,网络功能虚拟化编排)主要负责VNF规划和部署、整网虚拟资源的编排,VNFM(Virtualized Network Function Manager,虚拟化网络功能管理)负责VNF的生命周期管理,包含了VNF的实例化、弹性伸缩、缩扩容、实例终止等操作。因此,VNFM在整个NFV域中,是一个非常重要的节点,VNFM的升级的可靠性会直接影响到其管理的VNF的可靠性,一旦VNFM升级失败,需要能迅速回退到原来的版本,以保证VNF的正常运行和业务提供。
目前,VNFM的升级流程一般通过停止VNFM当前版本服务,安装新版本VNFM,执行数据升级,启动新版本VNFM服务等步骤完成,升级流程如图1所示,包括如下几个步骤:
S101:在进行VNFM升级前,需要先停止VNFM虚拟机上运行的旧版 本VNFM服务,然后对旧版本VNFM进行备份,即将旧版本软件、配置文件、数据库文件以及VNF相关的模板、版本等文件备份到另外的目录。
S102:从VNFM的版本服务器下载新版本VNFM至VNFM虚拟机。
S103:下载完成后,开始安装新版本VNFM。
S104、S105:新版本VNFM安装完成后,执行升级脚本进行数据库升级,数据库升级完成后,拷贝配置文件和VNF相关的模板、版本等文件到新版本目录。如果数据库升级失败,转到S108进行回退操作,升级失败。
S106、S107:新版本VNFM数据升级成功后,启动新版本VNFM服务,如果启动成功,则升级成功。如果启动失败,转到S108进行回退操作,升级失败。
S108:版本回退操作,即把已经安装的新版本VNFM删除,再把备份的文件还原到原来的目录,启动VNFM服务。
从上述流程可以看出,这种升级方式在一开始就需要停止VNFM服务,在此之后还需要一系列的文件拷贝处理,然后才是升级安装,升级过程中出现异常时还需要把备份的文件拷贝回去,增加了VNFM服务中断的时间。
电信设备实现NFV时,VNF的数量非常多,为了保证VNFM的处理性能,对VNFM管理的VNF数量是有限制的,这样就会导致VNFM的数量会有很多个,需要同时对这些VNFM进行升级,按上述升级流程,需要对每个VNFM按照上述步骤完成升级,不仅繁琐,而且很容易遗漏。
此外,VNFM的升级如果涉及操作系统库的升级,也需要在升级时手工对操作系统打补丁,增加了升级失败后回退操作的复杂性,如果遇到多个VNFM同时升级的情况,这种手工打补丁的方式也是非常麻烦的。
另外,如果VNFM升级过程中涉及VNFM虚拟机资源调整的,还需要在VNFM升级完成后再做一次缩扩容操作,不仅增加了VNFM服务中断的时间,而且增加了升级失败后回退的复杂性。

本发明的实施方式
下面结合附图对本发明的实施方式进行说明。
实施例一:
图2为本发明实施例一提供的VNFM升级方法的流程图,如图2所示,该VNFM升级方法包括:
S201:根据新版本虚拟化网络功能的注册信息,创建虚拟化网络功能管理虚拟机;
S202:在虚拟化网络功能管理虚拟机上,安装新版本虚拟化网络功能管理;
S203:安装完成后,对新版本虚拟化网络功能管理进行数据升级;
S204:数据升级成功后,运行新版本虚拟化网络功能管理。
为了减少VNFM升级过程中VNFM服务中断的时间,提升VNFM升级时的自动化程度,提高VNFM升级失败后回退操作的可靠性,在云平台服务器上,通过创建一个新的VNFM虚拟机,在该新的VNFM虚拟机上安装新本版VNFM,并对新版本VNFM进行数据升级,从而通过新版本VNFM对VNF进行管理,实现对VNFM的版本升级。
在本实施例中,为了创建新的VNFM虚拟机及安装新版本VNFM,可以先获取新版本VNFM的注册信息,该注册信息包括VNFM自定义配置文件(定义了VNFM的全局配置和网络配置)、版本注册信息(file.lst文件中的信息)和云平台信息,其中,版本注册信息包括但不局限于VNFM的操作系统镜像、模板文件等,在获取该注册信息之前,需要完成新版本VNFM的注册流程,图3为本发明实施例一提供的VNFM注册方法的流程图,如图3所示,该新版本VNFM的注册流程和VNFM实例化前的注册流程完全一致,可以直接复用,故在此不再赘述。需要说明的是,当多个VNFM同时升级时,此注册流程只需完成一次即可,注册完成后,获取该注册信息,这样多个VNFM同时升级时,都可根据此次获取的注册信息,而不需要再次获取该注 册信息,创建多个相同的VNFM虚拟机,从而分别在这多个VNFM虚拟机上对VNFM进行升级。
在上述技术方案中,在根据新版本虚拟化网络功能的注册信息,创建虚拟化网络功能管理虚拟机之前,首先需要在版本服务器上更新VNFM的版本包,在更新VNFM版本包时,若涉及VNFM的操作系统库升级和/或虚拟机资源调整,则可以更新版本服务器上新版本VNFM的操作系统相关的库和/或调整新版本VNFM的虚拟机资源,从而避免手工对操作系统打补丁及通过缩扩容操作调整VNFM的虚拟机资源,其方式如下:
(1)若VNFM升级时确定更新新版本VNFM的操作系统相关的库,则可以由用户重新制作新版本VNFM的操作系统镜像,制作完成后,将该操作系统镜像上传至版本服务器上对应的目录中,即更新至版本服务器上VNFM版本包同级目录的file.lst文件中,然后传入新版本VNFM、操作系统镜像所在的版本服务器的FTP路径,完成新版本VNFM的镜像上传;
(2)若VNFM升级时确定更改VNFM的虚拟机资源,则可以由用户重新制作VNFM的模板文件,将该模板文件上传至版本服务器上对应的目录中,即更新版本服务器上VNFM的模板文件,对该模板文件中定义的虚拟机资源进行更新,如CPU、内存、硬盘等参数信息,所有模板文件更新完成后,重新计算这些文件的MD5(Message-Digest Algorithm 5,信息-摘要算法5)值,将所有模板文件更新到版本包同级目录的file.lst文件中,然后传入新版本VNFM、模板文件所在的版本服务器的FTP路径,完成VNFM的虚拟机资源调整。
在本实施例中,图4为本发明实施例一提供的VNFM虚拟机创建和版本安装方法的流程图,如图4所示,该VNFM虚拟机创建和版本安装方法的流程与VNFM实例化的流程基本一致,在此不再赘述,但是需要注意的是,本实施例中VNFM虚拟机创建与版本安装方法与VNFM实例化的唯一不同在于,由于本流程是对VNFM进行升级,故在此处完成新版本VNFM的安装后,不会启动VNFM服务,而VNFM实例化后会启动VNFM,因此可以稍加修改后,复用VNFM实例化的操作。需要说明的是,在上述获取注册信息、创建VNFM虚拟机以及安装新版本VNFM的过程中,不会停止旧版本 VNFM的服务,即旧版本VNFM一直处于工作状态,其可以正常对业务进行处理。
在本实施例中,当新版本VNFM安装完成后,需要对新版本VNFM的数据进行升级,而在新版本VNFM进行数据升级前,判断旧版本VNFM当前的任务队列中是否有任务正在处理,若有,则将旧版本VNFM设置为维护态,使旧版本VNFM停止业务服务,其设置方式为:控制该旧版本VNFM只对当前的任务队列中的任务进行处理,不接收新的任务,当旧版本VNFM对当前的任务队列中的任务处理完成后,将旧版本VNFM从工作态切换为维护态,该维护态使旧版本VNFM停止业务操作,保证新版本VNFM在数据升级时与旧版本VNFM的数据保持一致性,若没有,意味着此时旧版本VNFM已处于维护态,控制旧版本VNFM继续停止业务服务,不接收新的任务,直接对新版本VNFM进行数据升级。需要说明的是,为了实现对旧版本VNFM状态的设置,在VNFM上需要新增一个状态标识,该状态标识用于表示VNFM当前所处的状态,其主要分为工作态和维护态,同时,VNFM上需要提供一个状态切换的消息接口,以便在VNFM的升级过程中,切换旧版本VNFM状态,即当VNFM处于工作态时,表示VNFM正在对任务进行处理,当VNFM处于维护态时,表示VNFM停止对任务进行处理。
在本实施例中,当旧版本VNFM停止对任务进行处理后,即可开始对新版本VNFM的数据进行升级操作,由于当前版本的数据都在旧版本VNFM的虚拟机上,因此,在对新版本VNFM进行数据升级时,根据数据升级要求,即数据升级时所需的数据、文件,将旧版本VNFM的数据升级文件拷贝至新版本VNFM中对应的目录,如可以通过FTP(File Transfer Protocol,文件传输协议)进行上述文件的拷贝,该数据升级文件包括但不局限于旧版本VNFM中的配置文件、数据库文件以及与VNF相关的模板文件、版本文件等,若文件拷贝失败,则需要进行回退操作,删除新版本VNFM所属的虚拟化网络功能管理虚拟机,即删除新的已经安装新版本VNFM的虚拟机,同时通知旧版本VNFM开始进行业务服务,即从维护态切换为工作态,若文件拷贝成功,则通过该数据升级文件,执行数据库升级脚本对新版本虚拟化网络功能管理进行升级数据。
在本实施例中,根据新版本VNFM的数据升级结果,选择是否可以运行新版本VNFM,从而通过升级后的新版本VNFM对VNF进行管理,包括:
(1)若新版本VNFM数据升级失败,则意味着VNFM升级失败,则需要进行回退操作,删除新版本VNFM所属的虚拟化网络功能管理虚拟机,即删除新的已经安装新版本VNFM的虚拟机,同时通知旧版本VNFM开始进行业务服务,即从维护态切换为工作态;
(2)若新版本VNFM数据升级成功,则启动新版本VNFM,若新版本VNFM启动失败,即新版本VNFM无法正常运行,则意味着VNFM升级失败,则需要进行回退操作,删除新版本VNFM所属的虚拟化网络功能管理虚拟机,即删除新的已经安装新版本VNFM的虚拟机,同时通知旧版本VNFM开始进行业务服务,即从维护态切换为工作态;若新版本VNFM启动成功,即新版本VNFM运行正常,则意味着VNFM升级成功,即可通过新版本VNFM对VNF进行管理,为了对VNF进行管理,需要根据新版本VNFM的标识信息,更新旧版本VNFM所管理的所有VNF中的虚拟化网络功能管理的标识信息,以及NFVO中的虚拟化网络功能管理信息,更新完成后,即可通过新版本VNFM对VNF进行管理,且使NFVO切换为新版本VNFM的虚拟机上,对新版本VNFM进行管理,进一步地,在完成同步信息流程之后,新版本VNFM即可正常工作,则删除旧版本VNFM所属的虚拟化网络功能管理虚拟机。
利用云平台服务器,通过创建一个新的VNFM虚拟机实现VNFM的版本升级,整个升级过程都不需要停止当前的VNFM服务,在创建新版本VNFM虚拟机的同时,旧版本VNFM可以继续工作,仅在新版本VNFM进行数据升级时才把旧版本VNFM服务切换到维护态,从而减少升级过程中VNFM服务中断的时间,提升VNFM升级时的自动化程度,同时实现了在VNFM版本升级的过程中一并完成VNFM的虚拟机资源的调整,避免了版本升级成功后的缩扩容操作。同时,VNFM升级失败后,只需把旧版本VNFM从维护态改成工作态即可完成升级的回退,降低了VNFM升级失败后回退到旧版本VNFM的实现复杂度,提高了回退操作的可靠性。另外,由于新版本的VNFM的虚拟机是新创建的,可以在创建前通过修改VNFM虚拟机的模 板文件来完成VNFM虚拟机资源的调整。此外,通过NFVO发起操作后,后续流程均不需要人工干预,全部自动完成,同时,NFVO上保存着所有的VNFM的信息,这样处理多个VNFM升级时可以通过一个循环操作自动完成所有VNFM的升级,提升了VNFM升级的自动化程度。

在本实施例中,还包括旧版本VNFM单元,当新版本VNFM安装完成后,需要对新版本VNFM的数据进行升级,而在新版本VNFM进行数据升级前,NFVO单元将第一状态切换信息发送至旧版本VNFM单元,该第一状态切换信息用于指示旧版本VNFM单元从工作态切换为维护态,使旧版本VNFM单元停止业务操作,旧版本VNFM单元接收该第一状态切换信息,根据该第一状态切换信息,判断自身当前的任务队列中是否有任务正在处理,若没有,则旧版本VNFM单元继续停止业务操作,发送切换状态确认信息至NVFO单元,NVFO单元接收该切换状态确认信息完成对旧版本VNFM的控制,若有,则保持工作态,只对当前的任务队列中的任务进行处理,发送任务处理信息至NVFO单元,NVFO单元接收该任务处理信息,等待一定时间后,重新发送第一状态切换信息至旧版本VNFM单元,如此往复,直到旧版本VNFM对当前的任务队列中的任务处理完成,即NVFO单元接收到旧版本VNFM单元发送的切换状态确认信息为止。
在本实施例中,还包括至少一个VNF单元,该至少一个VNF单元为VNFM升级前旧版本VNFM单元所管理的VNF单元。对新版本VNFM进行数据升级操作后,根据新版本VNFM的数据升级结果,选择是否可以运行新版本VNFM,从而通过升级后的新版本VNFM单元对VNF进行管理,其实现包括:新版本VNFM单元启动新版本VNFM,若启动成功,新版本VNFM单元发送更新信息至至少一个VNF单元,该更新信息用于指示旧版本VNFM单元所管理的至少一个VNF单元更新其内部存储的VNFM的标识信息,该更新信息中携带新版本VNFM单元的标识信息,该标识信息包括新版本VNFM单元的IP地址等信息,至少一个VNF单元接收该更新信息,根据该更新信息中携带的标识信息,将自身内部存储的VNFM单元的标识信息更新为新版本VNFM单元的标识信息,即将旧版本VNFM单元的标识信息更新为新版本VNFM单元的标识信息,更新完成后,发送更新确认信息至新版本VNFM单元,新版本VNFM单元接收至少一个VNF单元发送的更新确认信息,完成同步信息流程,根据更新确认信息,即可管理至少一个VNF单元,新版本VNFM单元还发送升级成功信息至NVFO单元,NVFO单元接收该升级成功信息,根据该升级成功信息,将VNFM信息更新为新版本VNFM单元,即切换到新版本VNFM的虚拟机上,在完成同步信息流程之后,新版 本VNFM即可正常工作,则NVFO单元可删除旧版本VNFM单元。
在本实施例中,若新版本VNFM的数据升级失败或启动失败,则NVFO单元删除新版本VNFM单元,发送第二状态切换信息至旧版本VNFM单元,该第二状态切换信息用于指示旧版本VNFM单元从维护态切换至工作态,使旧版本VNFM开始对任务进行处理,旧版本VNFM单元接收该第二状态切换信息,根据该第二状态切换通知信息,通知旧版本VNFM从维护态切换为工作态,使旧版本VNFM单元进行业务操作。
本领域普通技术人员可以理解上述实施例的全部或部分步骤可以使用计算机程序流程来实现,所述计算机程序可以存储于一计算机可读存储介质中,所述计算机程序在相应的硬件平台上(如系统、设备、装置、器件等)执行,在执行时,包括方法实施例的步骤之一或其组合。

工业实用性
本发明实施例提供一种虚拟化网络功能管理升级方法、装置及服务器,利用虚拟化平台资源支持自动创建的特性,通过创建一个新的VNFM虚拟机 实现VNFM的版本升级,整个升级过程都不需要停止当前的VNFM服务,在创建新版本VNFM虚拟机的同时,旧版本VNFM可以继续工作,仅在新版本VNFM进行数据升级时才把旧版本VNFM服务切换到维护态,从而减少升级过程中VNFM服务中断的时间,提升VNFM升级时的自动化程度,同时实现了在VNFM版本升级的过程中一并完成VNFM的虚拟机资源的调整,避免了版本升级成功后的缩扩容操作。同时,VNFM升级失败后,只需把旧版本VNFM从维护态改成工作态即可完成升级的回退,降低了VNFM升级失败后回退到旧版本VNFM的实现复杂度,提高了回退操作的可靠性。另外,由于新版本的VNFM的虚拟机是新创建的,可以在创建前通过修改VNFM虚拟机的模板文件来完成VNFM虚拟机资源的调整。此外,通过NFVO发起操作后,后续流程均不需要人工干预,全部自动完成,同时,NFVO上保存着所有的VNFM的信息,这样处理多个VNFM升级时可以通过一个循环操作自动完成所有VNFM的升级,提升了VNFM升级的自动化程度。
