<p>The following paragraphs list the functions in this release. All |
<tr style=""> |
functions are considered community tested and operational unless specifically |

noted below. Features that are marked alpha or beta are not generally of the |

quality or completeness for production usage. Interfaces that are |
|
part of the Pegasus public interface definitions but that the Pegasus team feels |
|
may change are marked experimental. In many cases these features and |

interfaces are conditionally compiled with special environment variables. PEP |

174 provides more detailed information on how to enable functionality that is |

conditionally compiled in this release.</p> |

<h4><b>SLP Discovery</b></h4> |
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center"><span style="color: black;"> |
|
<hr align="center" color="#009900" noshade="noshade" size="2" width="100%"></span></div> |
| |
<p>SLP support is included but is conditionally compiled with the default. This code can be enabled by setting the compile |
<h2 style="margin-bottom: 1px;"><b><o:p><font size="4"> Contents<br> |
environment variable PEGASUS_ENABLE_SLP. Once compiled, SLP support |
|
is enabled with the slp configuration parameter (slp=true). SLP support includes |
|
an SLP service agent in the Pegasus CIM severas and generates SLP advertisements compatible with the DMTF |
|
slp template specification. The SLP support also includes extensions to the CIM |
|
Client libraries to execute SLP User Agent requests and analyze the results |
|
(note that these interfaces are not yet part of the Pegasus public SDK).</p> |
|
|
|
<h4>Provider Managers</h4> |
|
|
|
<p>Pegasus is designed to support multiple Provider Managers to allow multiple |
|
provider interfaces to the CIMOM. The default provider manager is the C++ |
|
Interface. This section defines the additional provider managers available |
|
with Pegasus 2.4.</p> |
|
|
|
<blockquote> |
|
|
|
<h5><b style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'>CMPI C interface Provider Manager<o:p></o:p></b></h5> |
|
|
|
<p>Pegasus 2.4 includes a provider manager for the CMPI C interfaces.<span style='mso-spacerun:yes'> |
|
</span>This C interface is the result of a project by the IBM SBLIM team (<span |
|
class=GramE>see<span style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span></span><a |
|
href="http://www-124.ibm.com/sblim/)">http://www-124.ibm.com/sblim/)</a> and |
|
also the working draft of the Open Group specification for these interfaces |
|
which is in review now within the <span class=SpellE>WBEMSource</span> |
|
Initiative (<a href="http://www.wbemsource.org/">http://www.wbemsource.org</a>). |
|
This provides a standardized C level interface for creating providers that can |
|
be registered with the Pegasus CIM Server in the same manner as the current C++ |
|
providers. </p> |
|
|
|
<p>Today, the CMPI provider manager and interfaces are considered experimental |
|
and are subject to change in future versions of Pegasus until the CMPI |
|
specification is released. Information on writing providers with the CMPI |
|
interface is available in the draft version of the specification today (see |
|
above) and in the following documents (<a href="http://www-124.ibm.com/sblim/doc/CMPIandC++.pdf">http://www-124.ibm.com/sblim/doc/ProviderArchitecture.pdf |
|
</a>and <a href="http://www-124.ibm.com/sblim/doc/CMPIandC++.pdf"> |
|
http://www-124.ibm.com/sblim/doc/CMPIandC++.pdf</a>) and readme.cmpi in the |
|
Pegasus source root directory.</p> |
|
|
|
<h5>JMPI Java Interface Provider Manager</h5> |
|
|
|
<p>Pegasus includes an experimental provider manager for Java provider |
|
interfaces based on the SNIA provider interface definitions. This provider |
|
manager is considered alpha quality and is not compiled in the default build. |
|
See readme.jmpi in the Pegasus source root directory for more information.</p> |

<h3><b>Providers</b></h3> |
|
|
|
<p>There are a number of providers available in the Pegasus release. |
|
This includes providers in the following categories:</p> |
|
|
|
<blockquote style='margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt'> |
|
|
|
<h4>Pegasus Internal Providers</h4> |
|
|
|
<p>Pegasus provides a set of "internal" providers that have direct access to the |
|
CIMOM for information and provide information and services to support the CIMOM |
|
and its administration. The providers in this category are mostly defined in the directory src/pegasus/controlproviders |
|
and include support for the following classes:</p> |
|
| |
<ul> |
</font></o:p></b></h2> |
<li>DMTF Interop classes including __Namespace, <span |
|
class=SpellE>CIM_Namespace</span>, <span class=SpellE>CIM_ObjectManager</span>, |
|
<span class=SpellE>CIM_CommunicationMechanism, and CIMOMStatistics.</span></li> |
|
</ul> |
|
| |
<h4><b>Generic Providers</b></h4> |
<ol> |
| |
<p>Generic <span class=SpellE>OperatingSystem</span> provider. See the |
<li><a href="#Availability_of_this_Release_">Availability of this Release</a></li> |
directory <span class=SpellE>src</span>/Providers/generic.</p> |
|
| |
<h4><b>Test/Sample Providers</b></h4> |
<li><a href="#Functionality_of_This_Release">OpenPegasus Functionality of This |
|
Release</a></li> |
| |
<p>See the directories <span class=SpellE>src/Providers/TestProviders</span> |
<li><a href="#Relationship_to_CIMWBEM_Standards">Relationship |
and <span class=SpellE>src</span>/Providers/Sample for more information about test and |
to CIM/WBEM Standards</a></li> |
sample providers.</p> |
|
|
|
<h4><b>Managed System Providers</b></h4> |
|
|
|
<p><span class=SpellE>ComputerSystem</span>, <span class=SpellE>DNSAdmin</span>, |
|
<span class=SpellE>DNSService</span>, Operating System, Process, Processor. For |
|
more information on these providers see the documentation for each provider in |
|
the directory <span class=SpellE>src/Providers/ManagedSystem</span></p> |
|
|
|
<h4><span class="SpellE">SLP Provider</span></h4> |
|
|
|
<p><span class="SpellE">This provider acts as the definer of SLP |
|
information for SLP registration and also controls the Pegasus SLP Service |
|
Agent. It is treated as a normal provider rather than a control provider because |
|
it does not use internal functions of the CIMOM to generate any of its |
|
information today. (conditionally compiled today)</span></p> |
|
|
|
</blockquote> |
|
|
|
<h3><span class=SpellE><b>CIM_Schema</b></span></h3> |
|
|
|
<p>The default <span class=SpellE>CIM_Schema</span> loaded with this release is |
|
the DMTF CIM 2.8, Final release. In addition, Pegasus includes a number of |
|
local classes defined for Pegasus. These are defined in the pegasus/Schemas |
|
directory. CIM 2.9 preliminary<span style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span> |
|
schema is also available in the CVS but is not the default schema for compile. |
|
There are also a number of older schema available in the CVS.</p> |
|
|
|
<p>The mechanism to install other schemas than the default is |
|
defined in the mak/config.mak</p> |
|
|
|
<p style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><b>NOTE:</b> The CIM 2.5 schema is maintained in the |
|
CVS repository because it remains the basis for parts of the Pegasus test |
|
environment.</p> |
|
|
|
<h3><b>Pegasus MOF Compilers</b></h3> |
|
|
|
<p>Pegasus implements a MOF compiler that can operate either at the client |
|
interface to the Pegasus CIM Server (<span class=SpellE>cimmof</span>) or directly interfacing with a CIM |
|
repository (<span class=SpellE>cimmofl</span>).</p> |
|
|
|
<p>The direct interface compiler is used primarily to provide an initial |
|
class/instance repository. <font color="#FF0000"><b>WARNING:</b></font> |
|
the use of <span class=SpellE>cimmofl</span> |
|
to manipulate instances in the repository bypasses any provider that is |
|
registered to serve these instances and simply installs the instances in the |
|
instance repository; this may result in 1) bad data in the repository if there |
|
are registered providers, 2) corruption of the repository if the CIM Server is |
|
running or, 3) MOF data that is loaded but not available until the server is |
|
stopped and restarted in some cases. Use of <span class=SpellE>cimmofl in |
|
general is discouraged and particularly </span> to manipulate |
|
instances served by a registered providers (ex. |
|
Provider registration). Use of <span |
|
class=SpellE>cimmof</span> rather that <span class=SpellE>cimmofl is encouraged</span> |
|
wherever possible.</p> |

<h3><b>WMI <span class=SpellE>Mapper</span></b></h3> |
|
|
|
<p>The WBEM to WMI <span class=SpellE>Mapper</span> provides a way to access |
|
WMI data from Windows platform systems. It converts incoming XML/CIM requests |
|
to Microsoft WMI requests, executes the requests, converts the results to |
|
XML/CIM and returns the results to the client. WMI <span class=SpellE>Mapper</span> |
|
receives an HTTP message containing the XML/CIM request. It decodes the XML |
|
message and extracts from the HTTP message header the user credentials provided |
|
on the connection (username and password). The WMI <span class=SpellE>Mapper</span> |
|
authenticates these credentials, verifying if the provided credentials have |
|
access to the desired WMI data. This is done because the WMI <span |
|
class=SpellE>Mapper</span> runs as a service, logged on using an account with |
|
administrative rights (which has all access to WMI data). Because of this, the |
|
WMI <span class=SpellE>Mapper</span> impersonates the user credentials provided |
|
on the HTTP message to ensure that the calling user has rights to browse WMI |
|
data. Hence, ALL requests made to the WMI <span class=SpellE>Mapper</span> MUST |
|
contain user credentials.</p> |

|
<li><b>Provider Registration</b> - Pegasus supports registration |
|
through a set of Pegasus Provider registration classes rather than |

support the DMTF defined Provider Qualifier. Pegasus will not support |
|
this qualifier in the future. See the readme for more information on |
|
provider registration. This is not a deviation from the specifications but |
|
is a different method of registration than many CIM Servers and means that the |
|
the provider qualifier is unused in Pegasus.</li> |
|
|
|
<li> <b>Indications </b>-Today Pegasus supports process indications and |

lifecycle indications when defined specifically by providers. Pegasus does not |

support lifecycle indications if they are not defined by the provider or for |

|
- |
|
The DMTF specifications have deprecated the use of qualifiers on instance |
|
operations with the 1.2 CIM Operations Specification. Some CIM Client implementations expect instances |
|
returned |
|
from the CIM Server to include the qualifiers defined in the class |
|
definition (such as KEY qualifiers on properties). </span> Pegasus |
|
today expects the provider to complete the qualifiers on instances in |
|
accordance with the specification and generally the interpretation is |
|
that Pegasus applies class level qualifiers when the includeInstance |
|
parameter is supplied on instance operations. However, Pegasus |
|
today is inconsistent in the return of qualifiers so that the user |
|
should NOT depend on Pegasus accurately honoring the includeQualifier |
|
parameter for instance operations. In the future it is expected |
|
that Pegasus will deprecate the use of qualifiers on instance |
|
operations completely.<font color="#FF0000"> </font></p> |
|

</li> |
|
|
|
<li><b>LocalOnly option on instance |
|
Operations </b>- With the 1.1 version of Specification for CIM |
|
Operations over HTTP, the definition of the LocalOnly parameter for the |
|
GetInstance and EnumerateInstances operations was modified. This change |
|
was incorrect, resulted in reduced functionality and introduced a |
|
number of backward compatibility issues. As a result of issues |
|
introduced by this change, we strongly recommend that CIM Clients set |
|
LocalOnly = false and do not rely on the use of this parameter to |
|
filter the set of set of properties returned. See Appendix C of this |
|
specification for more information.</li> |
|
|

specifications. However, today there are a number of known differences. |
|
As of this release, some of the differences include the following:</p> |
|
| |
<ol> |
</td> |
<li><b>Provider Registration</b> - Pegasus supports registration through a set of |
|
Pegasus Provider registration classes rather than support the DMTF defined Provider |
|
Qualifier. Pegasus will not support this qualifier in the future. See the readme for more information on provider registration.</li> |
|
<li> <b>Indications </b>-Today Pegasus supports process indications but does not |
|
include any specific support for lifecycle indications.</li> |
|
<li> |
|
| |
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'> <b>Instance qualifiers and class |
</tr> |
qualifiers on some Operations</b> - |
|
The DMTF specifications are unclear regarding the inclusion of qualifiers on |
|
CIM instances. Some CIM Client implementations expect instances returned |
|
from the CIM Server to include the qualifiers defined in the class definition |
|
(such as KEY qualifiers on properties). </span> Pegasus today expects the provider to complete the qualifiers on instances in |
|
accordance with the specification and generally the interpretation is that |
|
Pegasus applies class level qualifiers when the includeInstance parameter is |
|
supplied on instance operations. However, Pegasus today is inconsistent in |
|
the return of qualifiers so that the user should NOT depend on Pegasus |
|
accurately honoring the includeQualifier parameter for instance operations. |
|
In the future it is expected that Pegasus will deprecate the use of qualifiers |
|
on instance operations completely.</p> |

With the 1.1 version of Specification for CIM Operations over HTTP, the |

operations was modified. This change was incorrect, resulted in reduced |
|
functionality and introduced a number of backward compatibility issues. As a |
|
result of issues introduced by this change, we strongly recommend that CIM |

Clients set LocalOnly = false and do not rely on the use of this parameter to |

filter the set of set of properties returned.</p> |

<p>The Pegasus bugzilla database documents any defects found in Pegasus |

and is available through the following link: <a href="http://cvs.rdg.opengroup.org/bugzilla/">OpenPegasus bugzilla |

database</a>. Note that all changes committed for this release have been marked |

with the keyword <font face="Courier New"><b>2.6.0_APPROVED</b></font> so that |
|
all changes for this release can be found with the following bug search. |
|
Effective with the start of the Pegasus 2.6 work, all changes to the CVS tree |
|
were documented through bugs. Thus bugs were filed not only for bugs and |
|
their corresponding fixes but also as part of the process of committing new code |
|
representing the work on PEPs done for Pegasus 2.6. Therefore, a search of |
|
the bugzilla base for bugs with the tag 2.6.0_Approved will yield all changes to |
|
the Pegasus CVS tree for Pegasus 2.6.0.</p> |
