<p>SLP support is included but is conditionally compiled with the default. This code can be enabled by setting the compile |
|
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> |

<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> |

<h2><a name="Conformance with DMTF Specifications">Conformance with 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.</li> |
|
<li> <b>Indications </b>-Today Pegasus supports process indications but does not |
|
include any specific support for lifecycle indications.</li> |
|

<h3><b>Information on Interop namespace name (root/PG_InterOp) for |
|
OpenPegasus 2.12<br> |
|
</b></h3> |
|
<p>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 |

|
| |
<p class=MsoNormal> <b>CIM MOF compiler function for instance aliasing</b> - The |
|
Pegasus MOF compiler does not today support this function. This function is |
|
planned for a future version.</p> |
|
| |
</li> |
wiki faq</a>s. <br> |
<li> |
</p> |
|
<p>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.<br> |
|
</p> |
|
<p>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.<br> |
|
</p> |
|
<p>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.<br> |
|
</p> |
|
<p>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. <br> |

|
<p><b>NOTE:</b> This functionality was incorporated in OpenPegasus |
|
2.7.0 but it was felt that the information below was worth |
|
repeating in subsequent Release Notes</p> |
|
<p style="color: rgb(153, 51, 153);"><font color="#000000">IPv6 is |

|
<font color="#3333ff">PEP 291</font></a><font color="#000000">.</font></p> |
|
<p>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.<br> |
|
</p> |
|
<p>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>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); |
|
font-family: monospace;"><big><font color="#000000">osinfo -h |
|
3ffe:1:2:1 -p 5988</font></big></div> |
|
<p>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; font-family: monospace;"><big>cimcli |
| |

|
</div> |
|
<br> |

<h4><font color="#000000">IPv6 on Linux</font></h4> |
|
<p>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><span style="font-weight: bold;">Note: </span>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.<br> |
|
</p> |
|
<p>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> |
|
</p> |

<h2><a name="Conformance with DMTF Specifications"></a>DMTF/SNIS |
|
SMI Profiles Supported</h2> |
|
<p>Today OpenPegasus includes support for several DMTF profiles |
|
including the ones defined below:</p> |
|
<ol> |
|
<li>DMTF ProfileRegistration Version 1.0.0</li> |
|
<li>DMTF Indications 1.1.0. Since this is effectively the same |
|
as the SNIA SMI Indication profile it also supports this |
|
profile. This profile is enabled by compiling OpenPegasus with |
|
the build variable PEGASUS_ENABLE_DMTF_INDICATION_SUPPORT.<br> |
|
</li> |
|
<li>SNIA Profile Registration 1.0.0</li> |
|
<li>SNIA Server 1.1.0 & 1.2.0<br> |
|
</li> |
|
</ol> |
|
<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>Lifecycle 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 |

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 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 |
|
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. |
|
When Pegasus uses object normalization, the normalizer |
|
does apply qualifiers to returned instances if the |
|
includeQualifiers operation parameter is set.</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 |
|
Enumerate Instances 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 Operations</b> - Pegasus |
|
does not support the DMTF defined MultiRequest Operation |
|
option.</p> |
|
</li> |
|
<li> |
|
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>MOF Compiler namespace pragma</b> - |
|
The Pegasus compiler does not support the namespace pragma.</p> |
|
</li> |
|
<li><b>CIMOperation Trailer </b>- Pegasus implements chunking |
|
based on the DSP0200 1.2.0 preliminary spec. including the |
|
operation trailer defined in that specification Refer to bug <a |
|
href="http://cvs.opengroup.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6760">6760</a> |
|
for more details. This trailer was completely removed from the |
|
DSP0200 1.2 final specification as a non-compatible change so |
|
that if chunking is used Pegasus is returning a noncompliant |
|
response to enumerate type requests. </li> |
|
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;">Whitespace in XML value |
|
Element</span> - Pegasus trims the leading and trailing |
|
whitespace from XML value elements that are of the Type |
|
String. This behavior is documented in Pegasus bug <a |
|
href="http://bugzilla.openpegasus.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8773">8773</a> |
|
and there is a patch available for users. However, since |
|
the change is considered a change to behavior this will not be |
|
patched until pegasus does a major version update. NOTE: There |
|
are some documented bugs in Pegasus such as this that the |
|
OpenPegasus team feels cannot be incorporated into the code |
|
until a major version update. These bugs are documented |
|
with the Bugzilla tag <big style="font-weight: bold;"><samp>"3.0_TARGET".</samp></big></li> |
|
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;">modifyInstance operation |
|
behavior in the Pegasus repository does not match the DMTF |
|
specification</span>. Under some conditions (ex. if no |
|
propertyList is supplied) it modifies all properties rather |
|
than just the properties supplied with the request thereby |
|
Nulling out existing values. See bug <a |
|

|
<li><b>OpenPegasus Interop Namespace</b> - The default interop |
|
namespace name in OpenPegasus is "root/PG_Interop". In |
|
versions of OpenPegasus prior to 2.12.0 this could be changed |
|
during build by modifying a string definition in the code. |
|
Effective version 2.12 this has become a build option |
|
with the build configuration environment variable |
|
PEGASUS_INTEROP_NAMESPACE = <name for this namespace> |
|
however, the default if built without this change is still |
|
"root/PG_InterOp"<br> |
