Post Scale

Post Scale

Scale VNF. The POST method requests to scale a VNF instance resource incrementally. This method shall follow the provisions specified in the tables 5.4.5.3.1-1 and 5.4.5.3.1-2 for URI query parameters, request and response data structures, and response codes. The steps and conditions that apply as the result of successfully executing this method are specified in clause 5.4.1.2. In addition, once the VNFM has successfully completed the underlying VNF LCM operation occurrence, it shall reflect the result of scaling the VNF instance by updating the "scaleStatus" attribute in the representation of the "Individual VNF instance" resource.
