1223 dave.sudlik 1.6        <h4>Object Normalization</h4>
1224                      The Object Normalizer is an entity introduced in Pegasus 2.4 that
1225                      ensures
1226                      objects delivered from providers are complete and accurate. Two major
1227                      issues were identified with the initial implementation: 1) the Object
1228 karl        1.6.12.1 Normalizer droped instances it considered bad, and 2) the Object
1229                      Normalizer code slowed performance. These issues are now addressed by
1230 dave.sudlik 1.6      moving the Object Normalizer from the Dispatcher to the Response
1231                      Handler (or equivalent) and optimizing the existing implementation. The
1232                      move allows errors to be reported to the provider at the point of
1233                      delivery and ensures that only a single copy is made to preserve the
1234                      CIMOM/provider boundary.<br>
1235 karl        1.6.12.1 &nbsp;<h4>Embedded Object Support</h4>
1236                        Pegasus 2.5 provides embedded object support. The proposed solution
1237                      is restricted to the following:<ul>
1238                          <li>The only representation for embedded objects supported by this
1239                      PEP is CIM-XML (i.e. id does not support MOF encoded objects). </li>
1240                          <li>CIMObject is implemented as a new CIMValue type. This type will be used
1241 dave.sudlik 1.6      internally to represent embedded objects. When externalized (via
1242                      CIM-XML) these objects will be converted to strings representing valid
1243                      INSTANCE or CLASS elements, in accordance with the CIM Infrastructure
1244                      Specification.&nbsp; Embedded instances will also carry the

1707                      originally frozen at the&nbsp;Pegasus version 2.1 release. The interfaces in the 
1708                      release of Pegasus 2.1 are forward compatible to this release. Well-behaved

1761 dave.sudlik 1.6      <p>The WBEM to WMI <span class="SpellE">Mapper</span> provides a way
1762                      to access
1763                      WMI data from Windows platform systems. It converts incoming XML/CIM

1765                      to Microsoft WMI requests, executes the requests, converts the results

1767                      XML/CIM and returns the results to the client. WMI <span class="SpellE">Mapper</span>
1768                      receives an HTTP message containing the XML/CIM request. It decodes the

1774                      have
1775 karl        1.6.12.1 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
1776 dave.sudlik 1.6      account with
1777                      administrative rights (which has all access to WMI data). Because of

1779                      WMI <span class="SpellE">Mapper</span> impersonates the user

1979                      support the DMTF defined Provider Qualifier. Pegasus will not support
1980                      this qualifier in the future. See the readme for more information on
1981                      provider registration.</li>

1988                      -
1989                      The DMTF specifications are unclear regarding the inclusion of
1990                      qualifiers on
1991                      CIM instances.&nbsp; Some CIM Client implementations expect instances
1992                      returned
1993                      from the CIM Server to include the qualifiers defined in the class
1994                      definition (such as KEY qualifiers on properties).&nbsp; </span>&nbsp;Pegasus
1995                      today expects the provider to complete the qualifiers on instances in
1996                      accordance with the specification and generally the interpretation is
1997                      that Pegasus applies class level qualifiers when the includeInstance
1998                      parameter is supplied on instance operations.&nbsp; However, Pegasus
1999                      today is inconsistent in the return of qualifiers so that the user
2000                      should NOT depend on Pegasus accurately honoring the includeQualifier
2001                      parameter for instance operations.&nbsp; In the future it is expected
2002                      that Pegasus will deprecate the use of qualifiers on instance
2003                      operations completely.</p>

2103                        <li>SLP extended to allow optional use of OpenSLP as the Service Agent (SA) in place of 
2104                        the Pegasus internal SA.</li>
2105                        <li>Changes to align OpenPegasus and Red Hat RPM packaging and configuration
