How to build pegasus for using webadmin? |
| |
======================================== |
| |
If you are building from sources, No need to set any build environ variable. It |
| |
is enabled by default. |
| |
webadmin interface's backbone is CIM-RS details at [1] and webserver facility |
| |
built on pegasus. CIM-RS accepts payload represented as JSON[2]. The response |
| |
in JSON can be consumed webserver and can be shown as a webpage. |
| |
CIM-RS is built as a integral part of cimserver, not controlled by any env and |
| |
webserver facility is controlled by PEGASUS_ENABLE_PROTOCOL_WEB, which is |
| |
enabled by default. To disable it set PEGASUS_ENABLE_PROTOCOL_WEB=false. |
| |
|
| |
How do I bring up the webadmin? |
| |
=============================== |
| |
Enter the your local host name along with port number in the address bar of a |
| |
browser. For example, if your hostname is localhost.localdomain. Just type in |
| |
localhost.localdomain:5988. |
| |
|
| |

| |
|
| |

| |
webRoot for part of the platforms. |
