<h2>Availability of this Release</h2>

NOTE: This document

defines the OpenPegasus 2.12.0 minor version release with

comments added to define the 2.12.1 revision to that minor

release.  OpenPegasus 2.12.1 is a bug fix revision to

OpenPegasus 2.12.0. The complete list of changes (total of 12

bugs fixed)  is defined in OpenPegasus bugzilla with the <a

href="http://bugzilla.openpegasus.org/buglist.cgi?keywords=2.12.1_APPROVED">2.12.1_APPROVED

bugs</a> query.  We recommend that all users of 2.12.0

review this list. OpenPegasus tries to execute only bug fixes

for revision releases and not include enhancements. The

OpenPegasus team recommends that users of Pegasus 2.12.0 update

to Pegasus 2.12.1. Note that in OpenPegasus ALL changes

including enhancements are defined as bugs and committed only

when the APPROVED keyword is set so that the list in the query

above defines ALL changes between 2.11.0 and 2.11.1.

<h2>OpenPegasus Functionality in 2.12

Release and includes new functionality but maintains behavior

and public API compatibility,

</li>

</ul>

The overall level of functionality in the Pegasus environment effective with this

release is as follows:

CIM Server

CIM Operations over HTTP<ol>

<li>    Class Operations (getClass, deleteClass, modifyClass, enumerateClass,

enuerateClassNames) - Operational</li>

<li>    Qualifier Operations - Operational</li>

<li>    Instance Operations (getInstance, deleteInstance, modifyInstance,

enumerateInstance, enumerateInstanceNames, getProperty, setProperty) - Operational</li>

<li>    Association Operations (references, referencenames, associators,

associatornames - Operational </li>

<li>    Methods- Operational</li>

<li>    Query operation (Not Operational)</li>

</ol>

Indications

Process indications are operational in the Server.  This includes support for

subscriptions, filters, and indication handlers, the provider API for indications and the

CIMXML indication handler. The Pegasus sever can be used as an Indication client. 

The Client indication  API support is complete but the interfaces are marked

experimental for version 2.3 because this is the first version of Pegasus in which these

APIs were available.

Query Language

The query language today is based on WQL and is implemented and used for filters.

However, the executeQuery operation has not been implemented pending the availability of a

standard DMTF Query language.

Class Repository

XML based file/directory Class repository.

Instance Repository

XML based file/directory Instance repository.  The instance repository is used as

the default repository unless a flag is set disabling this repository for client

operations.

Security<ol>

<li>Basic Security (Note that Digest based security is not implemented)</li>

<li>SSL support - SSL is implemented in Pegasus using the OpenSSL libraries. Pegasus does

not provide the OpenSSL libraries but SSL can be used on any platform supported by

OpenSSL.</li>

</ol>

Platform Management Functions<ol>

<li>Configuration through the defined configuration parameters.</li>

<li>Daemon operation on all supported platforms</li>

<li>User management utilities</li>

<li>Provider management. The CIM Server provides dynamic registration of providers and

automatic load and unload functionality.</li>

</ol>

SLP Discovery

SLP support is enabled in the platform but is conditionally compiled with the default

to not compile it today pending further testing.

</blockquote>

Providers

There are a number of standard providers available in Pegasus release. This

includes providers in the following categories:

Internal Providers<ul>

<li>__Namespace provider - Serves the __Namespace class to allow manipulation of namespaces.</li>

<li>Subscription Classes Providers - These provide subscription, filter, and indication

handler processing.</li>

<li>Provider registration Providers - This provide registration of providers using the

PG_Provider classes.</li>

<li>ConfigProvider - Manages Pegasus configuraton information.</li>

<li>UserAuthProvider - Manages password, etc.</li>

<li>ShutdownProvider - Provides support for Pegasus shutdown.</li>

<li>Interop Provider - Supports many of the DMTF Interop Schema Classes including

CIM_Namespace, CIM_ObjectManager, etc. (Note that this provider is part of the SLP work

package so is not compiled as part of the default compile)</li>

</ul>

Generic Providers

Generic OperatingSystem provider. See the directory src/Providers/generic.

Test/Sample Providers

See the directories src/Providers/TestProviders and src/Sample for more information

about test and sample providers.

Managed System Providers

ComputerSystem, DNSAdmin, DNSService, Operating System, Process, Processor. For more

information on these providers see the documentation for each provider in the directory

src/Providers/ManagedSystem

CIMOM Statistics Providers

IBMStatisticalData - This is an early version of the work that became

CIM_StatisticalData. It is similar to CIM_StatisticalData and provides the same data but

the structure of the Classes is slightly different.

</blockquote>

Linux Specific Providers

There are a number of providers in this category including DiskDrive, CDROMDrive,

Interrupt, IOPOrt, IPROute, NetworkAdapter, Operating System, PCI Controller, Processor,

ProviderData, ProviderSupport, SoftwareElement.  For more information about these

providers see the documentation in the directory src/Providers/linux

</blockquote>

CIM_Schema

The default CIM_Schema loaded with the Pegasus 2.2 release is the DMTF CIM 2.7 Final

release.  In addition, Pegasus includes a number of local classes defined for

Pegasus.  These are visible in the Schemas directory.

Pegasus MOF Compiler

Pegasus implements a MOF compiler that can operate either at the client interface

(cimmof) or directly interfacing with a CIM repository (cimmofl).

The direct interface compiler is used primarily to provide an initial class/instance

repository. Note that use of cimmofl to manipulate instances in the repository bypasses

any provider that is registered to serve the instances and simply installs the instances

in the instance repository; this may result in corruption if providers are using the

repository.  Use of cimmofl to manipulate instances served by a registered providers

is therefore discouraged. Use of cimmof rather that cimmofl is encouraged.

Pegasus Interface APIs

Details of the Pegasus public interfaces for release 2.3 is listed in PEP 96 available

from the web site(www.openpegasus.org). This document is the authorative source for the

list of publicly supported Pegasus APIs.   The Client and Provider API were

originally frozen at the  Pegasus version 2.1 release. The interfaces in the release

of Pegasus 2.1 are forward compatible to release 2.3 (clients and providers compiled to

the Pegasus 2.1 or 2.2 interfaces should be compatible with Pegasus 2.3 without

compilation)  but there have been extensions and new interfaces added for release 2.3

  The public interfaces includes the following major functions

that have recognized ports for the Pegasus code base including a maintainer for the

platform that will be willing to regularly assure that the port is maintained 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, the Pegasus

project cannot assure operation. The supported platforms for current release are:

Pegasus tries to conform to the CIM specifications.  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 differences.  As of Pegasus 2.3, some of the

differences include the following:

1. Provider Registration - Pegasus supports registration through a set of Provider

registration classes  similar to the CIM Classes defined as experimental in the CIM

2.8 preliminary Schema release and does not support the Provider Qualifier. Note that

there are differences that must still be worked out between the Pegasus PG provider

registration classes and the CIM classes as part of the move to release of the CIM

classes.

2. Indications -Pegasus supports process indications but does not include any specific

support for lifecycle indications.

PEGASUS_SLP_CLASSES and recompiling Pegasus.</li>

<li>Pluggable provider manager - This was a major objective but because the code changes

were extensive and released very late in the developement cycle of 2.3, both the old and

the new provider managers are maintained in the release AND the old provider manager is

defined as the default compile.  To compile and run with the new pluggable provider

manager functions the user must set a compile flag (ENABLE_PROVIDER_MANAGER2).  NOTE:

It is the intention of the Pegasus project to move to the new provider manager as soon as

possible.</li>

<li>HTTP Monitor enhancements - As with the Pluggable Provider Manager, it was the intention

to incorporate a number of enhancements to the HTTP monitor.  Again because the time

in the development phase when they were submitted, the project team elected to release 2.3

with the existing monitor as the default compile but with the code for both monitors. It

is the intention to move to the new monitor as soon as possible and users are free to work

with either implementation.  To compile and run with the new monitor use the flag

PEGASUS_MONITOR2.</li>

<h3>Information on Interop namespace name (root/PG_InterOp) for

OpenPegasus 2.12

</h3>

Prior to version 2.12 OpenPegasus used an OpenPegasus internal

variable to define "root/PG_InterOp" as the name for the

OpenPegasus namespace with no defined way to change this

variable.  Note that an unsupported method involving

editing one file and rebuilding OpenPegasus was defined as a

workaround in the <a

href="%20https://wiki.opengroup.org/pegasus-wiki/doku.php?id=faq:openpegasus_build_and_installing">OpenPegasus

wiki faq</a>s.

However, since the definition of a standard name for this

namespace in DMTF and SNIA specifications ("interop" or

"root/interop" with "interop" being the preferred alternative)

the use of  "root/PG_InterOp" has become an issue.

Effective OpenPegasus 2.12.0 a new build variable has been

defined  (PEGASUS_INTEROP_NAMESPACE) which allows an

OpenPegasus builder to define an alternate name for the Interop

namespace to either "interop" or "root/interop" (ex.

PEGASUS_INTEROP_NAMESPACE = interop).  Once this build

variable is defined and OpenPegasus compiled, the actual name of

the interop namespace is what was defined in this variable and

all components of OpenPegasus use this as the interop namespace

name include the complete OpenPegasus test suite.  The only

name for the interop namespace will be the name defined through

this build variable.

However, today OpenPegasus is committed to the single namespace

defined at build "(root/PG_InterOp", "interop", or

"root/interop"). However, a number of OpenPegasus 

installations are committed to the "root/PG_InterOp" name and

must maintain their repositories through updates of OpenPegasus.

While we are working on this issue today (which means that a

running version of OpenPegasus must accept both the and new

names and not confuse clients, listeners or providers that would

use either name) the OpenPegasus team did not complete that work

for this release. See bug <a

href="http://bugzilla.openpegasus.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9250">9250</a>

for more information about possible solutions and our progress

on a solution.

NOTE: If you redefine the interop namespace name with

PEGASUS_INTEROP_NAMESPACE clients using the "root/PG_InterOp"

namespace will not connect with the updated version of

OpenPegasus.

<h3>Information on  IPv6 Support (PEP

291)</h3>

NOTE: This functionality was incorporated in OpenPegasus

2.7.0 but it was felt that the information below was worth

repeating in subsequent Release Notes

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>.

The IPv6 support in OpenPegasus is controlled by the

PEGASUS_ENABLE_IPV6 build variable. The default for this

variable is "true"; setting this to 'false' before building

OpenPegasus will disable the IPv6 support.

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.

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:

<div style="margin-left: 40px; color: rgb(153, 51, 153);

font-family: monospace;"><big>osinfo -h

3ffe:1:2:1 -p 5988</big></div>

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:

<div style="margin-left: 40px; font-family: monospace;"><big>cimcli

ns -l [3ffe:1:2:1]</big></div>

or

<div style="margin-left: 40px;"><big><span style="font-family:

monospace;">cimcli ns -l [3ffe:1:2:1]:5989</big>

</div>

For more information on specifying IPv6 addresses, refer to <a

href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2373.txt">IETF RFC 2373 - IP

Version 6 Addressing Architecture</a> and <a

href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2732.txt">IETF RFC 2732 -

Format for Literal IPv6 Addresses in URL's</a>.

<h4>IPv6 on Linux</h4>

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.

Note: you

shouldn't 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.

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:

<div style="margin-left: 40px; color: rgb(153, 51, 153);

font-family: monospace;"><big>test -f

/proc/net/if_inet6 && echo "Running kernel is IPv6

ready"</big></div>

For more information on enabling IPv6 in the Linux kernel and

configuring network interfaces, refer to <a

href="http://tldp.org/HOWTO/html_single/Linux+IPv6-HOWTO/">The

Linux Documentation Project's IPv6 HOWTO</a>.

Warning: There is

currently an open issue with RedHat to address a problem that is

seen intermittently on RHEL5 and SLES10 systems. This problem is

described in <a

href="http://cvs.opengroup.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6586">Pegasus

bug

6586</a> and

href="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=248052">RedHat

bug

248052</a>, and manifests itself as an intermittent

IPv6 socket failure. You should be aware that OpenPegasus with

IPv6 enabled may be significantly impacted in these

environments.

<h4>IPv6 on Windows</h4>

Microsoft provides supported IPv6 implementations for Windows

Server 2003, Windows XP with Service Pack 1 (SP1), Windows XP

with Service Pack 2 (SP2), and Windows CE .NET 4.1 and later.

On Windows XP, you can use the ipv6.exe

tool to install, uninstall, and query your IPv6 configuration. For

example:

<div style="margin-left: 40px; color: rgb(153, 51, 153);

font-family: monospace;"><big>ipv6 install

ipv6 if</big></div>

Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 support an integrated

IPv4 and IPv6 implementation known as the Next Generation TCP/IP

stack. Note that the OpenPegasus IPv6 support has not yet been

tested on Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008.

For more information on installing, configuring, and using IPv6

on Windows platforms, refer to the document <a

href="https://www.microsoft.com/technet/network/ipv6/ipv6faq.mspx"><font

color="#000000">IPv6 for Microsoft Windows: Frequently Asked

Questions</a>.

<h4>Testing  OpenPegasus IPv6 support</h4>

As part of the OpenPegasus automated tests, the TestClient,

g11ntest, and IndicationStressTest test clients were modified to

run tests using the IPv6 loopback address (::1) if

PEGASUS_ENABLE_IPV6=true.

You can also perform manual tests using the IPv6 loopback or a

real IPv6-configured network interface. For example, using the

IPv6 loopback on a system with OpenPegasus running on the WBEM

standard http port of 5988:

<big style="font-family: monospace;"> osinfo -h ::1</big></div>

<h2><a name="Compatibility_Considerations_">Compatibility

Considerations</a></h2>

Support for forward-compatibility is a fundamental design

principle for the OpenPegasus project. As a community, our goal

is for well-behaved OpenPegasus providers or clients, using only

the externally defined OpenPegasus interface, to continue to

work with a minor version upgrade of OpenPegasus. However, there

are certain classes of errors (e.g., non-compliance with a

standard that significantly affects interoperability) that may

require the community to make potentially incompatible changes.

The following table contains a list of defects/fixes that MAY

impact, even well-behaved, OpenPegasus providers or clients when

upgrading to this OpenPegasus release.

<td align="left">Starting with OpenPegasus 2.11.0 the

requirement for providers (CMPI and C++) to filter

properties from instances has been relieved. The server

will do the filtering at the protocol adapter level. To

avoid a negative impact on performance the

CIMInstance::filter() and

CMPIInstanceFT.setPropertyFilter() functions have been

changed to a NOP. This may be a change in behavior for

provider relying in some unknown way on the instance being

filtered through these functions. To allow users to

actually filter properties from an instance, new function

CIMInstance::filterInstance() will actually filter

properties from an instance exactly as the

CIMInstance::filter() did in previous versions of Pegasus.</td>

Operations

</tr>

- The DMTF specifications have deprecated the use of

qualifiers on instance operations with the 1.2 CIM

Operations Specification and stated specifically that the

client should NOT depend on the includeQualifiers

parameter of the CIM/XML instance operations returning

qualifiers.  Some CIM Client implementations expect

instances returned from the CIM Server to include the

qualifiers defined in the class definition (such as KEY

<td width="957">Weak association qualifier check missed </td>

qualifiers on properties).   Pegasus

</tr>

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

<td width="957">Windows OS provider doesn't fill in CSName and Name keys </td>

the future it is expected that Pegasus will deprecate the

</tr>

use of qualifiers on instance operations completely.

 When Pegasus uses object normalization, the normalizer

does apply qualifiers to returned instances if the

includeQualifiers operation parameter is set.

</li>

<li>LocalOnly option on instance Operations - With the

definition of the LocalOnly parameter for the GetInstance and

incorrect, resulted in reduced functionality and introduced a

number of backward compatibility issues. As a result of issues

returned. See Appendix C of this specification for more

The OpenPegasus Bugzilla database documents any defects found

in Pegasus and  is available through the following

<h2>Documentation</h2>

The following documentation is available for the this Pegasus release:

bugzilla database</a>.   Effective with the start of

the OpenPegasus 2.6 work, all changes to the CVS tree are

documented through bugs.  Bugs reports are 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 OpenPegasus 2.6 and all subsequent versions. 

Therefore, a search of the OpenPegasus Bugzilla base for bugs

with the tag for a particular version (ex.  <a

2.6.1_APPROVED</a>, <a

href="http://cvs.rdg.opengroup.org/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?keywords=2.7.0_APPROVED">2.7.0_APPROVED</a>,

etc) will yield all changes to the Pegasus CVS tree for that

OpenPegasus release.

- Changes between the 2.12.0 release

and 2.12.1 revision are defined in bugs tagged

<h2><a name="Pegasus Release Control and Version Definition

Documentation">Release Control and Version Definition

Documentation</a></h2>

The OpenPegasus project is controlled largely through the CVS

repository and a set of documents (PEPs) that serve both as the

definition and review mechanism for new and modified Pegasus

functionality and for the definition and documentation of

releases.

The following documentation defines the characteristics of this

Pegasus release. The documents are available in the

OpenPegasus CVS repository.

<ul>

<li>Build and Installation - Readme in the Pegasus Root Directory</li>

<li> OpenPegasus Release Definition/Status -No PEP (See Wiki

<li>Operation - Readme in the Pegasus Root Directory</li>

Section <a

<li>APIs - See the header files and the HTML documentation that is on the web site.</li>

href="https://wiki.opengroup.org/pegasus-wiki/doku.php?id=dev:release:2.12_x">OpenPegasus

<li>Utilities - A combination of help generally available with the -h option for the command

2.12.x

and HTML documentation for most of the tools.</li>

<li>API usage documentation - The best API usage documentation is the existing utilities and

test programs.  In particular the Common/tests unit tests contain extensive examples

of the use of the Common APIs.</li>

Release Status</a>) - A

section in the Pegasus wiki is used throughout the

development of this version as the control point for

functionality that will go into the release and points to

all of the PEPs that represent the Pegasus 

functionality changes for this version of Pegasus. </li>

OpenPegasus

Build and Configuration Options  for Selected Platforms

-  In previous

versions of Pegasus this information was  released as a

Pegasus PEP. Starting with Pegasus 2.9.0 the information is

located in the OpenPegasus CVS repository as <big

monospace;">pegasus/doc/BuildAndReleaseOptions.html</big>.

<li> OpenPegasus External Interfaces -<span

style="font-weight: normal;">The list of the OpenPegasus

interfaces that are considered external and therefore

"frozen". Unless an exception is explicitly approved by

the Steering Committee all subsequent releases of Pegasus

MUST continue to support these interfaces. Interfaces not

explicitly listed in this document, should be considered

as internal and subject to change.In previous Pegasus

releases this information was available as a separate PEP.

Starting with Pegasus 2.9.0 this information is integrated

into the Pegasus repositoryas  <small
