Re: [tosca] contradiction between clause 3.7 and 6.1 for CSAR

Hi Shitao,

The 3.7 chapter is a new section (appearing in the latest TOSCA 2.0 revisions) providing a high-level explanations of the core concepts, and still under review. Yes this is a misstatement, great you spotted it. We should change the last paragraph to: âEach CSAR may contain a file called TOSCA.meta that describes the organization of the CSARâ.

The rest of the details will be explained in chapter 6.

Subject: [tosca] contradiction between clause 3.7 and 6.1 for CSAR

Hi Chris and all,

In the latest TOSCA 2.0 draft, it seems that clause 3.7 and 6.1 are not aligned with each other,

In 3.7, it says that

âEach CSAR MUST contain a file called TOSCA.meta (either in the top-level directory of the archive or in a subdirectory called TOSCA-Metadata).â

While in 6.1, it still indicates that CSAR without TOSCA.meta file is allowed.

Which one is correct?

Since ETSI NFV spec supports both CSAR options as described in tosca-simple-profile-yaml v1.2, such change for CSAR may also impact the ETSI NFV specs.
