 32 mark.hamzy 1.9 Java Manageability Programming Interface (JMPI)
 33                -----------------------------------------------
 34 schuur     1.1 
 35 mark.hamzy 1.9 JMPI is a bridge between clients and providers written in Java and the Open
 36                Pegasus project.
 37 schuur     1.1 
 38 mark.hamzy 1.9 More information on JMPI's status can be found at

 42                 Environment settings
 43 mark.hamzy  1.9 --------------------
 44 schuur      1.1 
 45 mark.hamzy  1.9 In order to build this support a few environment variables have to used.
 46                 The following script has been proven useful for setting up the build and execution environment.
 47                 You might need to adjust this to your system layout.
 48 schuur      1.1 
 49 mark.hamzy  1.9    an example setJPeg script file:
 50 schuur      1.1    export PEGASUS_HOME=`pwd`
 51 mark.hamzy  1.9    export PEGASUS_ROOT=${PEGASUS_HOME}
 52 schuur      1.1    export PEGASUS_PLATFORM=LINUX_IX86_GNU
 53 mark.hamzy  1.9    export PEGASUS_ENABLE_JMPI_PROVIDER_MANAGER=true
 54 schuur      1.1    export PEGASUS_DEBUG=1
 55 mark.hamzy  1.9    export JAVA_SDK=/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_08
 56                    export JAVA_SDKINC=${JAVA_SDK}/include
 57                    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:${JAVA_SDK}/jre/lib/i386/server:${JAVA_SDK}/jre/lib/i386/native_threads:${JAVA_SDK}/jre/lib/i386
 58                    export PATH=${JAVA_SDK}/bin/:${PEGASUS_HOME}/bin:${PATH}
 59                    export CLASSPATH=${CLASSPATH}:${PEGASUS_HOME}/lib/JMPIImpl.jar
 60                 
 61                 There is now a new variable to determine which JVM to link with.  The choices are as follows:
 62                      PEGASUS_JVM	sun	Sun's jvm (ex: j2sdk1.4.2_07)
 63                      PEGASUS_JVM	ibm	IBM's jvm (ex: IBMJava2-142)
 64                      PEGASUS_JVM	bea	Suse's IBM jvm (ex: BEAJava2-1.4.2)
 65                 So, pick one and export that variable to the environment.  For example,
 66                      export PEGASUS_JVM=sun
 67                 NOTE: This is currently listened to for Linux builds.  And the sun option was the only
 68                       tested version.
 69 schuur      1.1 
 70 mark.hamzy  1.9 There are a couple of optional environment variables to determine how the JRE is initialized.  These are
 71                 as follows (the variable name and what JRE option that it corresponds to):
 72 mark.hamzy  1.5 
 73 mark.hamzy  1.9 PEGASUS_JMPI_MAX_HEAP               -Xmx
 74                 PEGASUS_JMPI_INITIAL_HEAP           -Xms
 75                 PEGASUS_JMPI_JAVA_THREAD_STACK_SIZE -Xss
 76 mark.hamzy  1.4 
 77 mark.hamzy  1.9 So, for example, you would perform the following if you want to change the maximum heap size to 128 megabytes.
 78 mark.hamzy  1.4 
 79 mark.hamzy  1.9 export PEGASUS_JMPI_MAX_HEAP=128m
 80 mark.hamzy  1.4 
 81 mark.hamzy  1.9 There is a new optional environment variable that tells the JVM to output more debugging information.  The variable name
 82                 is called PEGASUS_JMPI_VERBOSE.  An example usage is as follows:
 83 mark.hamzy  1.4 
 84 mark.hamzy  1.9 export PEGASUS_JMPI_VERBOSE="jni,class"
 85 mark.hamzy  1.6 
 86 mark.hamzy  1.9 This will tell the JVM to output debug information on the JNI layer and class loading.
 87 mark.hamzy  1.6 
 88 mark.hamzy  1.9 When using this script, place a copy of this script above your PEGASUS_HOME directory.
 89                 "cd" to PEGASUS_HOME, and issue ". ./setJPeg". Then do a normal make.

 93                 ------------------
 94 schuur      1.1 
 95 mark.hamzy  1.9 This installment has the following restrictios:
 96 schuur      1.1 
 97 mark.hamzy  1.8    Unloading of idle providers is not supported and Java will increase the memory footprint.
 98 mark.hamzy  1.9    Java 1.5 is not currently supported.

102                 -----------------
103                 
104                 All interfaces to a provider have a sample provider written for them and are part of the
105                 testcases.  All main CIM java classes have testcases written for them as well.
106

110                 
111                 Java documentation needs to be written for the classes and methods within JMPI.

114                 Testing
115                 -------
116                 
117                 This installment has a set of tests located under src/Pegasus/ProviderManager2/JMPI/org/pegasus/jmpi/tests/
118 schuur      1.1 
119 mark.hamzy  1.9    Static/
120 schuur      1.1 
121 mark.hamzy  1.9       These tests have been modelled after wetest/static.
122                       For the tests, I had to modify "diff" to "diff -w", why that is needed I do not understand.

124 mark.hamzy  1.9    Providers/
125 schuur      1.1 
126 mark.hamzy  1.9       These tests implement the many variants of provider interfaces.

128 mark.hamzy  1.9    Client/
129 schuur      1.1 
130 mark.hamzy  1.9       These tests test out the client code and various Java classes.

135                 
136                 Tests are run with the following process.
137                 If the repository has not been built before then issue the following:
138                 
139                    cd to ${PEGASUS_HOME}/src/Pegasus/ProviderManager2/JMPI/
140                    Issue "make repository"
141 schuur      1.1 
142                    This will load a schema to the repository and register the provider.
143                 
144 mark.hamzy  1.9 Next, run the tests.
145 schuur      1.1 
146 mark.hamzy  1.9    cd to ${PEGASUS_HOME}/src/Pegasus/ProviderManager2/JMPI/
147                    Issue "find -name \*.rsp -exec rm {} \;" to clean up *.rsp files from failed tests.

173                    There is also sample Java code that deals with CIM classes that is located in
174                    ${PEGASUS_HOME}/src/Pegasus/ProviderManager2/JMPI/org/pegasus/jmpi/tests/Client/

177                 Provider Registration
178 mark.hamzy  1.9 ---------------------
179 schuur      1.1 
180 mark.hamzy  1.9    JMPI providers are registered as usual. The Location property in PG_ProviderModule has a special format.
181 schuur      1.1 	The format is: <jar-file-name>:<provider-class-name>
182                 
183 mark.hamzy  1.8    JMPI providers now fall into two groups.
184                    1) Legacy providers use:
185                       InterfaceType = "JMPI"
186                    and use one of the 3 following based on existing JMPI samples:
187                       InterfaceVersion = "1.0.0";
188                       InterfaceVersion = "2.0.0";
189                       InterfaceVersion = "2.2.0";
190                    Note that there is no difference in behavior in the three versions.
191 mark.hamzy  1.9 
192                    instance of PG_ProviderModule

201                 
202 mark.hamzy  1.8    2) New style providers use:
203                       InterfaceType = "JMPIExperimental"
204                    and:
