11 5. Create Nodeport for Policy pdp using the pdp_service_expose.yaml file (copy pdp_service_expose.yaml in hpa_automation/heat to rancher and run kubectl apply -f pdp_expose.yaml)
12 6. Put in the CSAR file to be used to create service models and specify its path in hpa_automation_config.json
13 7. Modify the SO bpmn configmap to change the SO vnf adapter endpoint to v2. See step 4 [here](https://onap.readthedocs.io/en/casablanca/submodules/integration.git/docs/docs_vfwHPA.html#docs-vfw-hpa)
14 8. Prepare sdnc_preload file and put in the right path to its location in hpa_automation_config.json
15 9. Put in the right parameters for automation in hpa_automation_config.json
