SBLIM CMPI Base Instrumentation README
--------------------------------------
Introduction
------------
The Base Instrumentation allows you to get the very base system information
via CIMOM technology/infrastructure.
The instrumented classes / associations are
- Linux_ComputerSystem
- Linux_BaseBoard
- Linux_OperatingSystem
- Linux_OperatingSystemStatisticalData
- Linux_UnixProcess
- Linux_Processor
- Linux_RunningOS
- Linux_OSProcess
- Linux_OperatingSystemStatistics
- Linux_CSProcessor
- Linux_CSBaseBoard
Package Contents

./README This file
./README.INDICATION README for Indication Support
./*.h Header Files
./*.c Provider Code
./mof/ Schema file(s)
./test/ Configuration files for SBLIM TestSuite
./test/indication Sample Filter, Handler and Subscription to
test the Indication Support
CIMOM Build Instructions
------------------------
Prerequisites
.............
- CIMOM installed
- CMPI enabled CIMOM
- CIM Schema Version 2.7 and higher loaded into the CIMOM's
repository
- to enable Indication support:
SBLIM package indication_helper installed
Building CIMOM and CMPI for this CIMOM
......................................
Please follow the instructions in the README.cmpi file of
the cmpi-adapter package.
CMPI support is available for OpenPegasus, OpenCimom (former
SNIA CIMOM) and OpenWBEM
- Pegasus ... CMPI is part of Pegasus
- OpenCimom ... install SBLIM cmpi-adapter for snia
- OpenWBEM ... CMPI is part of OpenWBEM
Building cmpi-base
..................
This package is now GNU autotool enabled, refer to the file
named INSTALL for generic instructions.
The generated configure script tries to determine where the CMPI header files
are located. For this purpose it searches a set of well-known locations.
The "canonical" location is /usr/include/cmpi or /usr/local/include/cmpi,
depending on how configure is invoked.
Further, configure "determines" where providers are to be installed. Actually,
there's no detection logic. The provider directory will always be
/usr/lib/cmpi or /usr/local/lib/cmpi. If a CIM server requires a particular
directory this can be selected by specifying the PROVIDERDIR variable.
And finally, configure tries to find out which CIM server type is being used.
This is necessary in order to select the appropriate schema and provider
registration technique. If the CIM server is not or incorrectly identified,
it is possible to specify it via the CIMSERVER variable.
Supported values are pegasus, sfcb, openwbem and sniacimom.
For instance, in order to configure for a locally installed Pegasus you can
issue the following command:
./configure CIMSERVER=pegasus PROVIDERDIR=$PEGASUS_HOME/lib
Load Schema into CIMOM's repository
...................................
with Pegasus / OpenWBEM /sfcb :
...............................
The loading and registering of the classes/associations and
their provider is done during the "make postinstall".
with OpenCimom/SNIA CIMOM :
...........................
Start the cimbrowser (/usr/sniacimom/bin). Load the schema
file Linux_Base.mof with "File" -> "Reload Mof" into the
namespace root/cimv2. Before at least CIM Core and System
schemata have to be loaded into the repository.
Common Libraries
----------------
- OSBase_Common :
implements the resource access and is responsible for common
data gathering
- cmpiOSBase_Common :
contains tool functionality to write generic CMPI Provider
and implements tool function, which handle CIM specific
formats or data
- dmiinfo :
data access to x86 SMBIOS informations (/dev/mem)

Automated Function Verifcation Test
-----------------------------------
The sub directory test contains the configuration files,
necessary to drive the SBLIM Test Suite. The SBLIM Test
Suite is a tool to automate function verification tests
of providers.
How to set up and drive the test is described in the
README.TEST file.
