      Different versions of the same NSD have same nsdInvariantId, but different nsdId attributes, therefore if the
      nsdInvariantId of the NSD version that is to be associated to this NS instance is different from the one used before, the
      NFVO shall reject the request. Only new versions of the same NSD can be associated to an existing NS instance. This
      data type shall comply with the provisions defined in Table 6.5.3.34-1.

      sync:
        description: >
          Specify whether the NS instance shall be automatically
          synchronized to the new NSD by the NFVO (in case of
          true value) or the NFVO shall not do any action (in case
          of a false value) and wait for further guidance from
          OSS/BSS (i.e. waiting for OSS/BSS to issue NS
          lifecycle management operation to explicitly add/remove
          VNFs and modify information of VNF instances
          according to the new NSD).
          The synchronization to the new NSD means e.g.
          instantiating/adding those VNFs whose VNFD is
          referenced by the new NSD version but not referenced
          by the old one, terminating/removing those VNFs whose
          VNFD is referenced by the old NSD version but not
          referenced by the new NSD version, modifying
          information of VNF instances to the new applicable
          VNFD provided in the new NSD version.
          A cardinality of 0 indicates that synchronization shall not be done.
