<B>Provider Interface</B> |
| |
|
| |
In Pegasus, the provider is a separate executable that accesses the |
| |
managed resources and is used by the CIMOM to provide access to |
| |
data. Providers forward this information to the CIMOM for |
| |
integration and interpretation. When the CIMOM receives a |
| |
request from a management application for data that is not available from the |
| |
CIMOM Repository, it forwards the request to a provider. The |
| |
CIMOM Repository only contains static data. |
| |
Providers implement a provider interface that supports the type of service |
| |
specific to their role. In order to implement the interface, a provider class |
| |
must first declare the interface in an implements clause, and then it must |
| |
provide an implementation (a body) for all of the abstract methods of |
| |
the.interface. |

<B>Repository Interface</B> |

|
| |
The repository interface isused by the CIMOM to interface with implementations of the repository thatstore and |
| |
retrieve provide persistence for class and instance information. |
| |
|
| |
A prototype implementation of both a class and instance provider is provided with Pegasus (ATTN: SEE ALSO). However, it is expected that this will be replaced in many installations. |
