<h1>Introduction</h1>
<p class=MsoNormal>This document defines a set of extensions to the Pegasus CIM
Compiler to help with the process of registering providers using MOF and the
compiler as the registration tool.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>The
additional functions are felt to be requirements to create an environment in
Pegasus Version 2 that is usable for provider installation and registration in
running Pegasus systems.</p>
<p class=MsoNormal><![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]><o:p></o:p></p>
<h1>Background</h1>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:Arial;mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman"'>These
proposed extensions started with work done by HP to define some rules and
possible extensions to the system to help control the input of MOF for provider
registration.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:Arial;mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman"'>We
have to assume that provider registration can be done at any time, not simply
at build of a new system and must be done when the CIMOn is running.<span
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>Further, it is intended that this be done by
inputting MOF to the system.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:Arial;mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman"'>This
is one of the characteristics that drives us to create the version of the CIM
compiler that is driven from the client interface and can input when the CIMOM
is running.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:Arial;mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman"'>Further
extensions revolve around:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

of the Experimental Qualifier that identifies all classes that are
considered experimental and not released.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes">
</span>Generally we should never see the experimental qualifier on any
classes in a released version of the CIM MOF and should see it only on
classes that change or are added for a preliminary release.<span
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>All of these classes must be either
moved to release or removed from the Schema to allow a schema to move to
release status within the DMTF. <o:p></o:p></span></li>
