Feature Description

Data slicing logically separates CDL as slices and stores the session data based on the slice name received from the Network Functions (NF).

With data slicing, one or more NFs can store different types of session data in dedicated slices of CDL. A default slice name called session is used if slice names are not configured.

cdl datastore <datastore name> slice-names [ <sliceName 1><sliceName 2> ... <sliceName n> ]

Sample configuration is as follows:

cdl datastore session slice-names [ session1 session2 ] 
Note
  • If the slice names are configured at the NF's ops-center or CDL's ops-center, every request from the NF must have a valid slice name. If the slice name is different from what is configured or empty, then the request is rejected with an error code.

  • If the slice names are not configured, then the NF requests are routed to the default session

  • The slice names cannot be updated in a running system post deployment.
