Abstract: An example operation may include a system, comprising one or more of receiving a virtual network function component instance (VNFCI) status notification resumption message with an active state when a peer VNFCI operational state is active, retrieving a timestamp of a VNFCI state change to an active state from an element VNFCI state database, retrieving a timestamp of a peer VNFCI state change to active from an element VNFCI state database, sending one or more of: a request to a virtual network function manager (VNFM) to determine if the VNFCI network is isolating while an operating state was active, and a request to the VNFM to determine if the peer VNFCI network is isolating while an operating state was active, sending a state change request with standby state to the peer VNFCI when the VNFCI is not network isolated and the peer VNFCI is network isolated, and a VNFM response is received regarding the VNFCI, a timeout response from the VNFM, and a VNFM response is received regarding the peer VNFCI, and sending a state change request with standby to the VNFCI with one or more of: the VNFCI network isolate and peer VNFCI is not network isolated, and the VNFCI is network isolated or the peer VNFCI is not network isolated, and the VNFCI is not network isolated and the peer VNFCI is network isolated and the VNFCI is in preferred standby.

Abstract: A VNFCI receives a heartbeat message from a peer VNFCI with an Active state and sends a heartbeat message to the peer VNFCI indicating that the VNFCI is in an Active state. The VNFCI sends a next state request message to an EMS and starts a response timer. The VNFCI sends a second heartbeat message to the peer VNFCI indicating that the VNFCI is in an Active state and that the VNFCI has a desired operational state of Active when the response timer expires and the VNFCI is not the preferred Standby instance; or the VNFCI receives a next state response message from the EMS and the VNFCI response state is an Active state. The VNFCI transitions to a Deactivating state when the response timer expires and the VNFCI is the preferred Standby instance; or the VNFCI receives the next state response message from the EMS and the VNFCI response state is Standby.

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.
