110 kumpf 1.12 their deployment. 111 For example, providers designed for a single-user deployment that 112 don't perform authorization must not be shipped with a CIM Server 113 that expects the providers to perform authorization. Note that
114 denise.eckstein 1.1 this authorization burden is considerably lighter if the provider 115 is registered as 'run as requestor' and if the CIM Server enables 116 that feature. See <a href= 117 "http://www.openpegasus.org/pp/uploads/40/7197/SecurityGuidePEP.htm"> 118 PEP#223 - Security Coding Guidelines</a> for additional 119 details. 120 </li> 121 <li> 122 Vendors should ensure they configure the CIM Server consistently 123 with the security requirements of their deployment. 124 </li> 125 </ol> 126 127 <h3>Terminology Notes</h3> 128 <ol> 129 <li> 130 In this document, the term "Not Set" is used to indicate 131 that the a value for the environment variable has not been defined.
