release, extending Pegasus 2.6 in |

<p>Finally, a significant number of internal changes and corrections |
|
were made under the control of the Pegasus bugzilla bug system. See the |
|
bug section below for more information.<br> |
|
</p> |
|
<h3 style="color: rgb(153, 51, 153);">IPv6 Support<br> |
|
</h3> |
|
<p style="color: rgb(153, 51, 153);">IPv6 is short for "Internet |
|
Protocol |
|
Version 6". IPv6 is the "next generation" protocol designed by the IETF |
|
to replace the current version Internet Protocol, IP Version 4 |
|
("IPv4"). IPv6 Support for OpenPegasus is documented in <a |
|
href="http://www.openpegasus.org/pp/uploads/40/14222/PEP_291_IPv6.html">PEP |
|
291</a>.<br> |
|
</p> |
|
<p style="color: rgb(153, 51, 153);">The IPv6 support in OpenPegasus is |
|
controlled by the PEGASUS_ENABLE_IPV6 build variable. Setting this to |
|
'true' before building OpenPegasus will enable the IPv6 support. In |
|
2.6.1 this variable will default to 'false' to omit the IPv6 support.<br> |
|
</p> |
|
<p style="color: rgb(153, 51, 153);">The following subsections provide |
|
some information on IPv6 support for the Linux and Windows platforms. |
|
Note that in the 2.6.1 release there is no automatic run-time detection |
|
of IPv6 support on a platform by OpenPegasus. If you build with |
|
PEGASUS_ENABLE_IPV6=true, your platform must support IPv6 or you will |
|
get a build failure (missing header files), a run-time bind() failure, |
|
or possibly some other failure. This applies to both the CIM Server and |
|
Listener components. For more information on IPv6 support for your |
|
specific platform, refer to the documentation for that platform.<br> |
|
</p> |
|
<p style="color: rgb(153, 51, 153);">All OpenPegasus externals that |
|
support either a hostname or an IP address as input have been updated |
|
to allow an IPv6 address to be specified. If the required input is just |
|
an IP address (eg. no optional or required port number), then the IPv6 |
|
address must be specified without brackets. For example, the |
|
OpenPegasus osinfo client (which returns information about the OS |
|
running on a host system) takes separate host and port options. In this |
|
case a host with an IPv6-configured network interface would be |
|
specified as:<br> |
|
</p> |
|
<div style="margin-left: 40px; color: rgb(153, 51, 153);">osinfo -h |
|
3ffe:1:2:1 -p 5988<br> |
|
</div> |
|
<p style="color: rgb(153, 51, 153);">But the cimcli command, which |
|
takes |
|
an optional "location" option including an optional port number, |
|
requires the IPv6 address to be delimited with brackets, for example:<br> |
|
</p> |
|
<div style="margin-left: 40px; color: rgb(153, 51, 153);">cimcli ns -l |
|
[3ffe:1:2:1]</div> |
|
<p style="color: rgb(153, 51, 153);">or<br> |
|
</p> |
|
<div style="margin-left: 40px; color: rgb(153, 51, 153);">cimcli ns -l |
|
[3ffe:1:2:1]:5989<br> |

<p style="color: rgb(153, 51, 153);">Modern Linux distributions already |
|
contain IPv6-ready kernels, the |
|
IPv6 capability is generally compiled as a module, but it's possible |
|
that this module is not loaded automatically on startup.</p> |
|
<p style="color: rgb(153, 51, 153);">Note: |
|
you shouldn't anymore use kernel series 2.2.x, because it's not |
|
IPv6-up-to-date anymore. Also the IPv6 support in series 2.4.x is no |
|
longer improved according to definitions in latest RFCs. It's recommend |
|
to use series 2.6.x now.<br> |
|
</p> |
|
<p style="color: rgb(153, 51, 153);">To check whether your current |
|
running |
|
kernel supports IPv6, take a look into your /proc filesystem. The entry |
|
/proc/net/if_inet6 must exist. A short automated test looks like:<br> |

<h2><a name="Conformance with DMTF Specifications">Conformance |
|
Exceptions to |
|
DMTF Specifications</a></h2> |
|
<p>It is a major goal |
|
of the OpenPegasus project to both drive and utilize the DMTF CIM/WBEM |
|
specifications. However, today there are a number of known |
|
differences. |
|
As of this release, some of the differences include the following:</p> |
|
<ol> |
|
<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 changes to CIM Classes.<font |
|
color="#ff0000"> </font><span class="norm"> <font color="#ff0000"> </font>For |
|
more information see the Pegasus CVS file <a name="comtag_137"> <font |
|
face="Courier New">pegasus/src/Unsupported/LifecycleIndicationProvider/README.LifecycleIndications.htm</font></a>.</span></li> |
|
<li> |
|
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;"> </span><font |
|
style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;">IncludeQualifiers |
|
option on Instance Operations</font><span style="color: black;"><b> </b> |
|
- |
|
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> |
|
<li> |
|
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>MultiRequest Oprations</b> - Pegasus |
|
does not support the DMTF defined MultiRequest Operation option.</p> |
|
</li> |
|
<li> |
|
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>MOFCompiler namespace pragma</b> - The |
|
Pegasus compiler does not support the namespace pragma.</p> |

<h2><b><span style="font-family: Times;">OpenPegasus <a |

name="Supported Platforms">Supported |
|
Platforms</a></span></b></h2> |
|
<p>Each OpenPegasus release lists as 'active' platforms those |
|
hardware/software platforms that have recognized ports for the Pegasus |

code |
|
base including a maintainer for the platform that will be willing to |
|
regularly document issues and/or fix defects as the Pegasus |
|
code base is changed. |
|
Pegasus may be operable on other platforms (ex. Windows 98) but without |
|
a group |
|
to provide the role of test and maintenance, correct operation of |
|
Pegasus cannot be |
|
assured. In all cases, including the active platforms, it is the |
|
responsibility of the entity that packages and/or compiles OpenPegasus |
|
for shipment or deployment, to read, and actively monitor the Pegasus |
|
bugzilla database for a list of relevant defects that affect their |
|
platform. The platforms that are considered 'active' for this |
