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 karl 1.24.2.2 that feature. See <a href="http://www.openpegasus.org/pp/uploads/40/7197/SecurityGuidePEP.htm">
117 denise.eckstein 1.1 PEP#223 - Security Coding Guidelines</a> for additional 118 details. 119 </li> 120 <li> 121 Vendors should ensure they configure the CIM Server consistently 122 with the security requirements of their deployment. 123 </li> 124 </ol> 125 126 <h3>Terminology Notes</h3> 127 <ol> 128 <li>

1903 denise.eckstein 1.1 configuration properties.</p> 1904 1905 <ul> 1906 1907 <h5>Default Value</h5> 1908 The value of <i>Default Value</i> is the OpenPegasus 1909 default setting for this configuration option. This 1910 value is used if a platform-specific setting is not
1911 kumpf 1.12 defined.
1912 denise.eckstein 1.1 1913 <h5>Recommended Default Value</h5>
1914 kumpf 1.12 The PEGASUS_USE_RELEASE_CONFIG_OPTIONS variable allows a 1915 platform vendor to easily toggle between two sets of
1916 denise.eckstein 1.1 configurations options, a set of options tuned for the
1917 karl 1.24.2.2 development/debug ("Development Build") environment
1918 denise.eckstein 1.1 and a set of options tuned for the production environment
1919 kumpf 1.12 ("Release Build"). The value of 1920 <i>Recommended Value (Development Build)</i>
1921 denise.eckstein 1.1 is the recommended default value for use in a development/
1922 kumpf 1.12 debug environment. The value of
1923 denise.eckstein 1.1 <i>Recommended Value (Release Build)</i> is the recommended
1924 kumpf 1.12 default value for use in a production environment. 1925
1926 denise.eckstein 1.1 <h5>Recommend To Be Fixed/Hidden</h5> 1927 Configuration options can be defined as fixed or hidden. 1928 A "fix" configuration option is set at build time
1929 kumpf 1.12 and cannot be changed without rebuilding. "Fixed"
1930 denise.eckstein 1.1 configuration options are not displayed using the cimconfig
1931 kumpf 1.12 command. This feature can be used by vendors to limit
1932 denise.eckstein 1.1 OpenPegasus functionality and configurability.
1933 kumpf 1.12 1934 A "hidden" configuration option is an option that is
1935 denise.eckstein 1.1 configurable (i.e., "not fixed"), but not externally 1936 advertised using the cimconfig command. The "hidden" 1937 feature can be used to define "internal use only" 1938 configuration options.
1939 kumpf 1.12
1940 denise.eckstein 1.1 <h5>Dynamic?</h5> 1941 If yes, the value of the configuration option can be 1942 changed without stopping and restarting the CIM Server. 1943 1944 <h5>Directory Specifications</h5> 1945 <p>Note that the variables included in the following table
1946 kumpf 1.12 (e.g., $LOGDIR) are for documentation purposes only and 1947 have been defined to simplify the description of the 1948 configuration options.  In particular,
1949 denise.eckstein 1.1 these variables DO NOT correspond to environment variables
1950 kumpf 1.12 implemented in the OpenPegasus code.  Default values 1951 for the following variables are platform
