Abstract

An example operation may include a system, comprising one or more of: receiving a status failure notification for a VNFCI, retrieving a peer VNFCI admin state and a peer VNFCI operational state, taking no action when one or more of: the peer VNFCI admin state is not online, the peer VNFCI is not reachable, and the peer VNFCI operational state is active, retrieving current issues reported on resources associated with the peer VNFCI when one or more of: the peer VNFCI admin state is online, the peer VNFCI is reachable, and the peer VNFCI operational state is not active, sending a state change request message with an active state to the peer VNFCI when the current issues do not exist, and starting a retry timer for the peer VNFCI.
