1219                 used for filters and in version 2.4 for execQuery.&nbsp; <br>

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        1.7 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        1.7 &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
1245                 EmbeddedObject attribute with
1246 karl        1.7 the value "object", as specified by CR Interop-00217.001.

1762                 to access
1763                 WMI data from Windows platform systems. It converts incoming XML/CIM
1764                 requests

1768                 receives an HTTP message containing the XML/CIM request. It decodes the

1773                 authenticates these credentials, verifying if the provided credentials
1774                 have
1775 karl        1.7 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
1778                 this, the
1779                 WMI <span class="SpellE">Mapper</span> impersonates the user
1780                 credentials provided
1781                 on the HTTP message to ensure that the calling user has rights to
1782                 browse WMI
1783                 data. Hence, ALL requests made to the WMI <span class="SpellE">Mapper</span>

1970                 DMTF Specifications</a></h2>
1971                 <p>It is a major goal
1972                 of the OpenPegasus project to both drive and utilize the DMTF CIM/WBEM
1973                 specifications.&nbsp; However, today there are a number of known
1974                 differences.&nbsp;
1975                 As of this release, some of the differences include the following:</p>
1976                 <ol>
1977                   <li><b>Provider Registration</b> - Pegasus supports registration
1978                 through a set of Pegasus Provider registration classes rather than
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>
1982                   <li>&nbsp;<b>Indications </b>-Today Pegasus supports process
1983                 indications but does not
1984                 include any specific support for lifecycle indications.</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>

2007                 Operations over HTTP, the definition of the LocalOnly parameter for the
2008 dave.sudlik 1.6 GetInstance and EnumerateInstances operations was modified. This change
2009                 was incorrect, resulted in reduced functionality and introduced a
2010                 number of backward compatibility issues. As a result of issues
2011                 introduced by this change, we strongly recommend that CIM Clients set
2012                 LocalOnly = false and do not rely on the use of this parameter to
2013                 filter the set of set of properties returned.</li>
