Input JSON file configuration

The input JSON file contains the customizable environment parameters that are used when installing and configuring the HPE Telco Blueprint. These parameters are structured in a data model topology and categorized into the following sections:

NOTE:

A sample input JSON file is provided along with the installation files. Download the sample input JSON file and modify it to your requirements. For more information about downloading the sample input JSON file, see release-specific HPE Telco Blueprint Release Notes.

The following code snippet shows an example of the basic data model structure of the input JSON file:

{
		"topology_name":"vepc_prod",
		"topology_data":{
			"infra":{ },
			"networking":{ },
			"platform_management":{ },
			"computes":{},
			"external_storage":{ }
	}
}

The topology_name parameter contains the user-defined name of the input JSON file. The allowed characters in this parameter are a-z, 0-9, and - (hyphen). The maximum number of permissible characters is 20.

After the input JSON file is configured with the required parameter values, save the file to a suitable location. You can validate the input JSON file using a suitable JSON syntax validator application.

You can also generate the input JSON file using the HPE Telco Infrastructure Configuration Generator tool. For more information on how to use this tool, contact HPE Technical Support team.
