<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> |
|
|
|
</li> |
|
|
|
</ol> |
|
|
|
<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 |
|
Pegasus release are:<br> |

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> |
