      <h2><a name="Notes_on_Specific_OpenPegasus"></a>Notes on Specific
        OpenPegasus Functionality Changes</h2>
      This section documents specific issues that the OpenPegasus team feels are
      important to OpenPegasus users with the current release (and possibly
      older releases).<br>
      <br>
      <h3>Add new RunTime Variables to control trace file size and Rotation(OpenPegasus
        2.13.0)(bug 9550)</h3>
      As of OpenPegasus 2.14.0, several new runtime variables have been added that can be manipulated with the <span style="font-family: Courier New,Courier,monospace;">cimconfig</span> utility:<br>
      <br>
      &nbsp;&nbsp; * <span style="font-weight: bold;">pullOperationsMaxObjectCount </span>-
Defines the maximum allowed value of the maxObjectCount argument on
open and pull operation requests which defines the maximum number of
instances or paths that will be returned in a single open or pull
response. Requests that have a value higher than this configuration
parameter will be rejected. The default is10000. This may be set to any
value between 1 and 10000. <br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; * <span style="font-weight: bold;">pullOperationsDefaultTimeout</span>
- Defines the default timeout in seconds between the time a pull open
response is sent by the server and a subsequent pull or close response
received from the client if the value is not set by the client in the
request. This can be set to any value between 1 and 90 seconds.
Default=30<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; * <span style="font-weight: bold;">pullOperationsMaxTimeout</span>
- Defines the maximum allowable value for the maxTimeout argument that
is part of the pull open... (openEnumerationInstances, etc) requests.
Any value higher than the value set in this configuration parameter
will cause the request to be rejected by the CIMServer. The default=90
seconds. TODO - Explain more on all of these above<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; * <span style="font-weight: bold;">httpSessionTimeout </span>-
Allows using a cookie to temporarily bypass the PAM authentication in
favor of the cookie provided by the server during a single session.<br>
This is a performance enhancement.&nbsp; If this variable is set to
zero (default) the cookie bypass is disabled, the server will not send
nor accept the id cookie.&nbsp; If set to<br>
an integer, a client session will maintain the cookie for the number of
seconds defined by the value of this variable. Enabled with a build
parameter PEGASUS_ENABLE_SESSION_COOKIES.<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; * <span style="font-weight: bold;">sslBackwardCompatibility</span>
- Limits OpenPegasus support to TLS 1.2/OpenSSL1.01. Can be set to
allow backward compatibility with older versions of TLS/OpenSSL. <br>
<br>
The following sections describe in more detail some of the more
significatn changes in this release as well as carrying forward some of
the same information for the last release to be sure users are aware
what these changes affect.<br>
<br>
<h3>DMTF Pull Client operations and FQL Query Language (OpenPegasus 2.14.0)</h3>As
of DMTF DSP0200 version 1.4, new client operations (generally named the
pull operations have been part of the CIM/XML protocol). This consists<br>
of a set of new operations (open..., pull..., close) that allow getting
enumerations, associations, references (and their corresponding name
operations) as a sequence<br>
of operations (an enumeration sequence) rather than a single monolithic operation.<br>
<br>
This will provider several advantages including:<br>
1. Better control of client memory since the client can determine the size of each response.<br>
2. Clearly separates the return of errors from data.<br>
<br>
Pegasus 2.14 supports all of these operations in both in the CIM/XML
client and the server. For more information on the implementation and
use of<br>

<h3>HTTP Sessions(OpenPegasus 2.14.0)</h3>Allows using a cookie to
enhance performance of PAM.&nbsp; This function is enabled with the
build varaible&nbsp; PEGASUS_ENABLE_SESSION_COOKIES. When<br>
the option is enabled, the OpenPegasus CIM server will
  use HTTP cookies for session management (RFC 6265).
  <br>

  After a successful client authentication the client is given a cookie. The
  client is then not asked for re-authentication as long as it provides the
  same cookie in all subsequent requests and until the session expires. Session
  expiry is configurable using httpSessionTimeout configuration option.
  <br>

  Nothing changes for clients that do not support HTTP cookies (RFC 6465) -
  their requests are authenticated as usual, either using Basic or Negotiate
  authentication mechanisms.
  <br>
<br>
The timeout for a session is determined by the runtime parameter <span style="font-weight: bold;">httpSessionTimeout</span>. If this runtime parameter is set to zero the HTTP cookies option is disabled.<br>
<br>
This option has proven to represent a significant improvement in performance over using PAM for every client operation.<span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"> <br>
</span></span><h3>WEBAdmin (OpenPegasus 2.14.0)</h3>OpenPegasus has
included on an experimental basis a web server that acts as an
adminstration tool to replace the command line tools.&nbsp; This option
presents the<br>
same information as the major command line tools as web pages so that
parameters can be modified without using the command line tools.&nbsp;
It is compiled by<br>
default and may be disabled with the build option
PEGASUS_ENABLE_PROTOCOL_WEB=false. See the file readme.webadmin in the
OpenPegasus<br>
source tree for more detailed information on using WEBAdmin.<br>
<br>
Note: This option is considered experimental for 2.14<br>

<h3>Using GCC 4.7 Compiler on Linux OS (OpenPegasus 2.13.0)<br>
      </h3>
      As of 2.14.0, OpenPegasus has been updated to replace the custom atomic
      operations with GCC built-in atomic operations if GCC version 4.7 or
      greater is used as the compiler.&nbsp; It is recommended that if possible
      this version of the GCC compiler be used since the change provides
      significant performance improvements.<br>
      <h2> </h2>
      <h3>OpenPegasus and OpenSLP V 2.0 (OpenPegasus 2.13.0)</h3>
      As of 2.13.0, OpenPegasus slp fully supports IPV6&nbsp; and has been
      tested with OpenSLP 2.0 (Recently released by <a href="http://openslp.org">OpenSlp.org</a>)<br>
      <br>
      While testing OpenPegasus with OpenSLP 2.0 the OpenPegasus team found two
      issues with this version of OpenSLP.&nbsp; The patches documented below
      allow this version of OpenSLP to work with OpenPegasus<br>
      <br>
      1) SLPReg used TCP connection previously, but it now uses UDP. Therefore,
      a BUFFER_OVERFLOW exception occurs.&nbsp; This is because UDP cannot
      handle attribute size greater than network MTU size. In such cases,
      according to the specification, OpenSLP should automatically switch to
      TCP.&nbsp; Since this has not been implemented in OpenSlp 2.0, the
      workaround used by OpenPegasus to force use of TCP may be found at <a title="http://sourceforge.net/p/openslp/bugs/139/" href="http://sourceforge.net/p/openslp/bugs/139/">http://sourceforge.net/p/openslp/bugs/139/</a>.<br>
      <br>
      2) On Windows, slpd service fails to start when IPV6 is enabled and throws
      the error message "Error 1067: the process terminated unexpectedly". More
      details and the fix for this issue are in the bug <a href="http://sourceforge.net/p/openslp/bugs/140/">http://sourceforge.net/p/openslp/bugs/140/</a>.<br>
      <h3>Interop namespace name (OpenPegasus 2.13.0)</h3>
      Effective with the release of OpenPegasus&nbsp; 2.13 the "interop"
      namespace support for existing or
      older repositories which used
      "root/PG_InterOp" has been added via a new option in the "reupgrade"
      utility. Users with existing repositories may use this option to migrate
      the repository from "root/PG_InterOp" to
      "interop" namespace.&nbsp; See <span class="bz_closed"><a href="http://bugzilla.openpegasus.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9414" title="RESOLVED FIXED - enhance repupgrade to support &quot;interop&quot; namespace">bug
          9414</a></span> (PEP304) for
      details.<br>
      <br>
      For this to work, the build&nbsp; option "PEGASUS_INTEROP_NAMESPACE" has
      to be
      set to "interop". Only then will the "-i" option in repupgrade be enabled.
      Once the repository is upgraded with "-i" , the namespace
      "root/PG_InterOp"
      will cease to exsist. Clients using "root/PG_InterOp" must now use
      "interop".<br>
      <br>
      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.&nbsp; Note that an unsupported method
      involving editing one file and rebuilding OpenPegasus was defined as a
      workaround in the <a href="file:///home/kschopmeyer/dev/pgogbug9611releasenotes/pegasus/%20https://wiki.opengroup.org/pegasus-wiki/doku.php?id=faq:openpegasus_build_and_installing">OpenPegasus
        wiki faq</a>s.&nbsp; <br>
      <br>
      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&nbsp; "root/PG_InterOp" has
      become an issue. 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 each version
      upgrade of OpenPegasus.<br>
      <br>
      Effective OpenPegasus 2.12.0 a new build variable was defined&nbsp;
      (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).&nbsp; Once this
      build variable is defined and OpenPegasus compiled, the actual name of the
      interop namespace is what was defined in this varaible and all components
      of OpenPegasus use this as the interop namespace name include the complete
      OpenPegasus test suite.&nbsp; The only name for the interop namespace will
      be the name defined through this build variable.&nbsp; This is the logical
      approach for implementations starting a new repository.<br>
      <br>
      In order to supexport PEGASUS_CLIENT_TRACE=keyword:keywordport users with
      existing repositories, in 2.13.0,&nbsp; migration of existing repositories
      was integrated into the "repupgrade" utility to allow existing OpenPegasus
      environments to smoothly move the server from use of the old name&nbsp;
      for the interop namespace "root/PG_InterOp" to&nbsp;
      the prefered name "interop".<br>
      <br>
      <span style="font-weight: bold;">NOTE:</span> If the interop namespace
      name is redefined with PEGASUS_INTEROP_NAMESPACE clients using the
      "root/PG_InterOp" namespace will not connect with the updated version of
      OpenPegasus. The OpenPegasus team searched for a solution to the issue
      supporting the old and new name at the same time and concluded that there
      were so many issues that it could not effectively be done.<br>
      <h3>Configure Script to Control OpenPegasus Builds (OpenPegasus
        2.13.0)(Bug 9592)</h3>
      OpenPegasus is moving from the use of environment variables to a configure
      script to control build.&nbsp; This is both to make it easier to define
      the build variables, etc. and to be more compatibile with the Linux/Unix
      standard build environment.&nbsp; However, because OpenPegasus must build
      on a number of platforms that do not support the full Linux/Unix
      configuration tool set, this is an OpenPegasus defined configure
      script.&nbsp; The first very experimental version is part of OpenPegasu
      2.13.0 but this version has a number of limitations (see the OpenPegasus
      Bugzilla) and will be expanded in the next versions of OpenPegasus.<br>
      <br>
      The goal is to replace the setting of most of the OpenPegasus build
      environment variable with options in the pegasus/configure script where
      those options are comatible with the Linux standard for defining configure
      options and those options control the entire build process including placement
      of output and choice of build options.<br>

      <span style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;;">slightly changed

      <h3>Information on IPV6 Support and OpenPegasus(PEP 291)(OpenPegasus
        2.7.0)</h3>
      <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<br>
      <br>
      <font color="#000000">IPv6 Support for OpenPegasus is documented in </font>
      <a href="http://www.openpegasus.org/pp/uploads/40/14222/PEP_291_IPv6.html">
        <font color="#3333ff">PEP 291</font></a><font color="#000000">.</font><br>
      <br>
      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>
      <br>
      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>
      <br>
      All OpenPegasus externals that support eitcompilerher 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>
      <br>
      <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>
      <br>
      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>
      <br>
      <div style="margin-left: 40px; font-family: monospace;"><big>cimcli ns -l
          [3ffe:1:2:1]</big></div>
      <p>or</p>
      <div style="margin-left: 40px;"><big><span style="font-family: monospace;">cimcli
            ns -l [3ffe:1:2:1]:5989</span></big><br>
      </div>
      <br>
      For more information on specifying IPv6 addresses, refer to <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2373.txt">IETF

      <h4><font color="#000000">IPv6 on Linux</font></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.<br>
      <br>
      <span style="font-weight: bold;">Note: </span>you shouldn't&nbsp;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>
      <br>
      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>
      <br>
      <div style="margin-left: 40px; color: rgb(153, 51, 153); font-family: monospace;"><big><font color="#000000">test -f /proc/net/if_inet6 &amp;&amp; echo "Running
            kernel is IPv6 ready"</font></big></div>

      <h4><font color="#000000">IPv6 on Windows</font></h4>
      <br>
      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.<br>
      <br>
      On Windows XP, you can use the <span style="font-weight: bold;">ipv6.exe</span>
      tool to install, uninstall, and query your IPv6 configuration. For
      example:<br>
      <br>
      <div style="margin-left: 40px; color: rgb(153, 51, 153); font-family: monospace;"><big><font color="#000000">ipv6 install<br>
            ipv6 if</font></big></div>
      <br>
      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.<br>
      <br>
      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</font></a>.<br>
      <br>
      <h4><font color="#000000">Testing&nbsp; OpenPegasus IPv6 support</font></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.<br>
      <br>
      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:<br>

      Support for forward-compatibility is a fundamental design principle for

      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

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 in a
provider, a new function (CIMInstance::filterInstance()) will actually
filter properties from an instance exactly as the CIMInstance::filter()
did in previous versions of Pegasus. This is not required since the
CIMServer will do the filtering but allows the provider to prefilter
properties if it so desires, in particular where properties might be
very large or there would be a significant number of properties.<br>

      <h2><a name="Conformance with DMTF Specifications"></a>DMTF/SNIA SMI
        Profiles Supported</h2>
      <br>
      Today OpenPegasus includes support for several DMTF profiles including:<br>
      <ol>
        <li>DMTF ProfileRegistration Version DSP 1033, Version 1.0.0</li>
        <li>DMTF Indications DSP 1054, Version 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 buld variable
          PEGASUS_ENABLE_DMTF_INDICATION_SUPPORT.<br>
        </li>
        <li>SNIA Profile Registration 1.0.0<br>

      <h2><a name="Conformance with DMTF Specifications">Conformance Exceptions
          to DMTF Specifications</a></h2>
      It is a major goal of the OpenPegasus project to both drive and utilize
      the DMTF CIM/WBEM specifications.&nbsp; However, today there are a number
      of known differences.&nbsp; As of this release, some of the differences
      include the following:<br>
      <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.&nbsp; This is
not really a deviation from the specifications since there is no
specification or profile for provider registration today 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
          iPegasusndications 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">&nbsp;</font>For more
            information see the Pegasus CVS file:<a name="comtag_137"><font size="2">
              </font><font face="Courier New" size="2">&nbsp;pegasus/src/Unsupported/LifecycleIndicationProvider/README.LifecycleIndications.htm</font></a><font size="2">.</font></span></li>
        <li> <font style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;">IncludeQualifiers
option
            on Instance Operations</font><span style="color: black;"><b>&nbsp;</b>
            - The DMTF specifications have deprecated the use of qualifiers on
            instance operations with the 1.2 CIM Operations Over HTTP Specification (DSP0200) and
            stated specifically that the client should NOT depend on the
            includeQualifiers parameter of the CIM/XML instance operations
            returning qualifiers.&nbsp; 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).&nbsp; &nbsp;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.&nbsp; 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.&nbsp; In the future it is expected that
            Pegasus will deprecate the use of qualifiers on instance operations
            completely. &nbsp;When Pegasus uses object normalization, the
            normalizer does apply qualifiers to returned instances if the
            includeQualifiers operation parameter is set.</span></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><span style="font-weight: bold;">MultiRequest CIM/XML Option</span>
          -&nbsp; Pegasus does not support the DMTF defined MultiRequest
          Operation option (See DSP0200).<br>
        </li>
        <li><span style="font-weight: bold;">MOF Namespace Pragma</span> -The
          Pegasus compiler does not support the namespace pragma defined in DSP
          0004. Namespaces for the OpenPegasus repository are defined through
          arguments for the MOF Compiler<br>
        </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.&nbsp;</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. &nbsp;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. &nbsp;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. &nbsp;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 href="http://bugzilla.openpegasus.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8752">8752</a>
          for more information.</li>
        <li><b>OpenPegasus Interop Namespace</b>
- The default interop namespace name in OpenPegasus is
"root/PG_Interop".&nbsp; 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 2.12.0 this&nbsp; has become a build option
with the build configuraton environment variable
PEGASUS_INTEROP_NAMESPACE = &lt;name for this namespace&gt; however,
the default if built without this change is still "root/PG_InterOp".
Effective with OpenPegasus 2.13.0 the reupgrade utility has been
extended to allow existing repositories to be converted from the use of
"root/PG_Interop" to "interop" (See discussion above).&nbsp; The
default in the CVS source code is still "root/PG_InterOp".<br>
</li>
        <li><b>OpenPegasus WSMAN protocol on windows does not handle NaN, INF,
            or -INF</b>However, t (bug&nbsp; <a href="http://bugzilla.openpegasus.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8836">8836</a>)
          - If requests or responses include properties or parameters with
          floating point property types (Real32 or Real64) with the special
          states NaN, INF, or -INF on a Windows platform, the input is not
          accepted because these special strings are not understood by the
          decoder on Windows.</li>
        <li><b>OpenPegasus outputs Nan, INF, -INF special values for Real32 and
            Real64 property and Parameter types for the CIM/XML protocol</b> -
          (bug <a href="http://bugzilla.openpegasus.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9392">9392</a>).
          Today the DMTF Specification DSP0201 allows only numeric information
          in the format definition for this type and does not all the special
          strings Nan, etc. However, OpenPegasus actually outputs the special
          strings if&nbsp; that is what is defined in the internal values.&nbsp;
          OpenPegasus does not allow these special Strings on input however,</li>
        <li><b>OpenPegasus does not handle covered properties</b> - (bug <a href="http://bugzilla.openpegasus.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3571">3571</a>)
          Covered properties (properties which have the same name in a
          superclass and subclass without overridding the property in the
          superclass) are not allowed in OpenPegasus. While the requirement for
          this functionality was added to DSP0004 subsequent to version 2.4, the
          general agreement is that the requirement itself is not supportable
          and particularly not with the existing OpenPegasus APIs.&nbsp;
          Further, the requirement is expected to be removed in the future (i.e
          CIM 3.0).</li>
  <li><span style="font-weight: bold;">FQL Query Language</span>
(bug 9956) incorporated has some limitations with respect to the DMTF
defined Query Language (does not support full regex defined in the
specification and does not support embedded instance comparison).<br>
  </li>

      </ol>
      
<h2><b><span style="font-family: Times;">OpenPegasus <a name="Supported Platforms">Supported
              Platforms</a></span></b></h2>

      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.&nbsp; 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&nbsp; Pegasus cannot be assured.&nbsp; 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.&nbsp;&nbsp; The platforms
      that are considered ported are shown in the two tables below.&nbsp; The
      first table represents platform for which testing is done on a regular
      basis and reported to the Pegasus Nightly Build Test WEB Page. Those
      platforms which have been ported but do not have test results that are
      current at the time of the release are reported in the second table.<br>

      The OpenPegasus Bugzilla database documents defects found in Pegasus
      and&nbsp; is available through the following link:&nbsp; <a href="http://cvs.rdg.opengroup.org/bugzilla/">OpenPegasus
        bugzilla database</a>.&nbsp;&nbsp; Effective with the start of the
      OpenPegasus 2.6 work, ALL changes to the OpenPegasus CVS tree are
      documented through bugs. Therefore all source code changes to OpenPegasus
      are documented through bugs providing a complete history of changes and
      the reasons for those changes.&nbsp; 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.&nbsp; Therefore, a search of the OpenPegasus
      Bugzilla base for bugs with the tag for a particular version (ex.&nbsp; <a href="http://cvs.rdg.opengroup.org/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?keywords=2.6.0_APPROVED">2.6.0_APPROVED</a>,

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.<br>
      <br>
      The following documentation defines the characteristics of this Pegasus
      release. The documents are available&nbsp;in the OpenPegasus CVS
