[Sblim-devel] New Release: sblim-cmpi-base 1.6.3

[Dave H. <hel...@li...>]

Hi Folks,

Here is announcing a new release of the cmpi-base provider, v1.6.3. 
cmpi-base is probably the most widely deployed of all the SBLIM 
providers, providing implementations of basic classes like 
CIM_ComputerSystem and CIM_OperatingSystem.

This is really just a maintenance release with a handful of bug fixes. 
The most notable change is that properties "LocalDateTime" and 
"CurrentTimeZone" of class Linux_OperatingSystem will now be reported 
with values adjusting for daylight savings time.  See [bugs:#2737] for 
details.  See the NEWS file for full list of changes.

The new release is tagged (CMPI_BASE_1_6_3) in git and the tarball is 
posted to the SourceForge download page.

Enjoy!

[Sblim-devel] New Release: wbemcli 1.6.3

[Dave H. <hel...@li...>]

Hi Folks,

Here is announcing a long-overdue release of our command-line tool, 
wbemcli, v1.6.3.  There are a handful of new features, mostly supporting 
testing of basic connectivity and http, as opposed to CIM-XML 
operations.  But I have found these features useful so you may want to 
check them out.  See [bugs:#2627] and [bugs:#2665] for more info.

The most important new feature is the support for IPv6 Link Layer 
Addresses (LLA).  These are the ones that require the "zone identifier" 
in the URL, tacked on to the end of the IPv6 address following the '%' 
character.  Normally the zone id is the interface name (e.g. "eth0") or 
number of the outgoing interface.  (This is required because LLA 
addresses are non-routable, so your local stack has no way of knowing 
which interface to use a priori.)  The syntax is similar to that used by 
ssh or curl.  The wbemcli patch supports either the interface name or 
number in the zoneid portion of the URL.

Speaking of URLs, there is a bugfix to the parsing of the password 
portion of the URL.  This patch was contributed by Vitezslav Crhonek. 
Thank you, sir!

Finally, there is a bugfix for a rather odd problem in wbemcli's 
handling of https connections.  With https you must specify either 
-noverify, which means do not verify the server certificate; or -cacert, 
which means verify the server cert against those stored in our 
truststore.  If you supply neither, wbemcli relies on the "default 
truststore": sort of an "implied" -cacert.  If however, wbemcli could 
not find it's default truststore it would attempt to connect anyway, 
discover it has no truststore, and then rudely abort in the middle of 
the SSL handshake.  This can cause confusing problems at the CIMOM; e.g 
SFCB will produce the following syslog error when this occurs:

   --- SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL during handshake: EOF occurred: client may have 
aborted

So please check for this problem, if you see the above error, before 
reporting a bug to SFCB!  See [bugs:#2629] for more info.

The new release is tagged (WBEMCLI_1_6_3) in CVS and the tarball is 
posted to the SourceForge download page.

[Sblim-devel] New Release: Data Gatherer 2.2.9,-

[Dave H. <hel...@li...>]

Hi Folks,

Here is announcing a new release of SBLIM Data Gatherer, v2.2.9.  There 
are only a handful of changes this time but this release includes a 
couple of important bug fixes.  There is a fix to a problem with 
GetInstance calls on interval metrics that resulted in queries returning 
"CIM_ERR_NOT_FOUND: Gatherer repository reported error".  Also there is 
a fix for a reposd crash that can occur in environments using 
distributed gatherer (i.e. many gatherd nodes reporting to a single 
reposd).  So it is recommended you pick up the new version as soon as 
possible.

As always, you can see the NEWS file for full list of changes.  See the 
individual bugs for more info; send any questions to sblim-devel mailing 
list.

The new release is tagged (GATHER_2_2_9) in git and the tarball is 
posted to the SourceForge download page.

Re: [Sblim-devel] Support for gp/sp command in provider

[Von B. P. <pau...@in...>]

GetProperty and SetProperty are deprecated in CIM Operations over HTTP 1.4.0:
  http://dmtf.org/sites/default/files/standards/documents/DSP0200_1.4.0.pdf

The text suggests using GetInstance and ModifyInstance operations.  If you are using a customized MOF, you could also provide extrinsic methods – GetButtonPriority and/or SetButtonPriority.

Hi All,

I had implemented one sample provider using sblim development package. I had implemented cmpi interface methods like get/enumerate/modify/invoke methods etc.
Please note that I have using CIMOM as SFCB.

Here my doubt is, I have tried gp/sp of the following properties using wbemcli. It shows that its not supported.

Please see the commands & response.

I need to implement this feature into my provider. I don't know how to implement it.

Is it supported by SFCB?

[Sblim-devel] SBLIM wiki migrated to new location

[Dave H. <hel...@li...>]

Folks,

Due to some shuffling on sourceforge.net, the SBLIM wiki has moved.  The 
new location is:

http://sblim.sourceforge.net/wiki/

Unfortunately, sourceforge did not provide a way to redirect from the 
old wiki to the new.  The old links now all redirect to the project home 
page at:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/sblim/

 From there you can click on the Wiki link on the toolbar, and that will 
take you to a page where the new wiki is linked in, and you'll have to 
find the page you are looking for manually from there.  :- (

I'm trying to get the toolbar Wiki link updated to go directly to the 
new wiki URL, without the intermediate step.  I have a ticket open to 
Sourceforge to get that done.  In the meantime you can just follow the 
link that's on the page.

Sorry for any inconvenience this has caused.

Re: [Sblim-devel] Help for implementing indication provider

[Dave H. <hel...@li...>]

Hi George,

That is normal.  You are just seeing the "escaped XML" that permits an 
EmbeddedObject to be carried within the response XML.  You are seeing 
the raw XML, as you would see over the wire, if the destination handler 
was a network URL instead of a local file:// URL.

FYI: SFCB 1.4 also supports CDATA encoding instead of escaped XML 
encoding, as controlled by the .cfg property "embeddedObjEncoding".  If 
you change that from "xmlescape" to "CDATA" you will see the difference 
in the XML.  The CDATA encoding is a bit more readable but it's not very 
good an handling nested embedded objects.  That's why "xmlescape" is the 
default in v1.4.

Re: [Sblim-devel] Help for implementing indication provider

[George v. <geo...@gm...>]

Thank you.



I had implemented a sample provider using the reference of implementation
in sblim-base , operating system source code. Then I tried testing with
wbemcli.

I have created /tmp/SFCB_OS_Listener.txt file ans set it the destination
path.


I executed the following command,



> wbemcat SFCBCreateFilter.localhost.xml

> wbemcat SFCBCreateHandler.localhost.xml

> wbemcat SFCBCreateSubscription.localhost.xml


When I open the file it contains , indication contents cim xml, is not well
formatted. Please see it ,


<PROPERTY NAME="Generation" TYPE="uint64">

</PROPERTY>

<PROPERTY NAME="ElementName" TYPE="string">

1. CIM indications are sent from the server to the client, not from the 
client to the server as with the standard CIM operations (GetInstance, 
etc.). The indication is sent from the CIM server to a destination, 
typically another HTTP server. You need an indication provider that is 
"enabled" to send indications to a destination. You do this by creating 
3 instances on the CIM server: a CIM_IndicationFilter, a 
CIM_ListenerDestination, and a CIM_IndicationSubscription. Providers 
implementing a class specified in the filter's query property will be 
enabled when the subscription is successfully created. Being enabled 
means the indication provider can send indications. If you want it to 
send indications based on an instance property changing, you need to 
subclass CIM_InstModification.

2. The query string of the IndicationFilter. For an example indication 
provider, see: 
https://github.com/buccella/SFCB/blob/master/test/TestProviders/cmpiTestIndicationProvider.c

The following page has some relevant information on indications:

[Sblim-devel] Help for implementing indication provider

[George v. <geo...@gm...>]

Hi All,



I have a requirement to implement an indication interface into my provider
for an instance property changes. I had already implemented other interface
like get/enumerate/modify and its working fine.

To implement it , I have created a new class and its derived from
CIM_InstModification class. Please see the sample mof file for which I have
created it for it.



// ===================================================================

//  GK_Test

// ===================================================================

[ Description("Class representing GK_Test"),

  Provider("cmpi:cmpiGK_Test")

]

class GK_Test: CIM_LogicalElement

{

[Key, Description("This property is used to read the unique key id")]

string InstanceID;

boolean PowerEnabled;

        boolean UserEnabled;

};



// ===================================================================

//  GK_TestIndication

// ===================================================================

[ Indication,

  Description ("Metric Process Indication"),

  Provider("cmpi:cmpiGK_Test")

]

class GK_TestIndication : CIM_InstModification

{

    boolean PowerEnabled;

    boolean UserEnabled;

};



Then I implemented the below indication interface API's,



CMPIStatus GK_TestIndicationCleanup(

           CMPIIndicationMI * mi,

           const CMPIContext * ctx, CMPIBoolean terminate) ;



CMPIStatus GK_TestAuthorizeFilter(

           CMPIIndicationMI * mi,

           const CMPIContext * ctx,

#ifndef CMPI_VER_100

           const CMPIResult * rslt,

#endif

           const CMPISelectExp * filter,

           const char * indType,

           const CMPIObjectPath * classPath,

           const char * owner);



CMPIStatus GK_TestMustPoll(

           CMPIIndicationMI * mi,

           const CMPIContext * ctx,

#ifndef CMPI_VER_100

           const CMPIResult * rslt,

#endif

           const CMPISelectExp * filter,

           const char * indType,

           const CMPIObjectPath * classPath) ;



CMPIStatus GK_TestActivateFilter(

           CMPIIndicationMI * mi,

           const CMPIContext * ctx,

#ifndef CMPI_VER_100

           const CMPIResult * rslt,

#endif

           const CMPISelectExp * filter,

           const char * indType,

           const CMPIObjectPath * classPath,

           CMPIBoolean firstActivation) ;



CMPIStatus GK_TestDeActivateFilter(

           CMPIIndicationMI * mi,

           const CMPIContext * ctx,

#ifndef CMPI_VER_100

           const CMPIResult * rslt,

#endif

           const CMPISelectExp * filter,

           const char * indType,

           const CMPIObjectPath *classPath,

           CMPIBoolean lastActivation);

CMPIStatus GK_TestEnableIndications(CMPIIndicationMI * mi, const
CMPIContext * ctx) ;

CMPIStatus GK_TestDisableIndications(CMPIIndicationMI * mi, const
CMPIContext * ctx) ;




I have facing the below issues. My requirement is to provide an instance of
any property changes. ie, in my class have two properties named PowerEnabled
& UserEnabled. So if any user has modified those properties, should return
an instance.



I need clarity to below questions,



1.What kind of the CIM request comes into provider? for example, I want to
get an instance whenever modifying the *PowerEnabled* property of class.
can you please provider sample cim request for it?

2.How to know in which property is subscribed in provider? and which
indication API and which parameter is used for get it?





Please see the .reg file for it.



[GK_Test]

   provider: GK_Test

   location: cmpiTestProvider

   type: instance method

   namespace: root/cimv2

#

[GK_TestIndication]

   provider: GK_Test

   location: cmpiTestProvider

   type: indication

   namespace: root/cimv2

#



Please reply, if any help from anybody which is very helpful for me.

George

Re: [Sblim-devel] Copying huge size files from Provider to client

[Dave H. <hel...@li...>]

One way to implement such a provider would be to handle each log or 
logfile as a separate class, and define various methods against that 
class to retrieve the log as a sequence of records.  Assuming each 
record has a timestamp, you could have a method like 
"getEventsByTimestamp",that would allow you to request records within a 
date range, as Chris suggested.

Similarly, you could assign each record in the log a sequence number or 
recordid, and have a method such as "getLogsByReordID" that would allow 
you to request a number of records starting with a particular record id, 
or using the most recent recordid by default.

You could return your results as a CMPIArray of string objects, with 
each object holding one log record.  Or you could choose to implement 
each record as an instance of a CMPI class (which would allow you to 
store timestamp or other metadata as properties) and return a CMPIArray 
of CMPIInstances.

Re: [Sblim-devel] indication provider implementation

[Chris B. <buc...@li...>]

The instance of CIM_IndicationFilter associated with the 
CIM_IndicationSubscription determines which properties the subscriber 
cares about.

Re: [Sblim-devel] Copying huge size files from Provider to client

[Chris B. <buc...@li...>]

Hi Arun,

SFCB does not provide a method for log file retrieval.

To do it via the CIM interface, you would need to have a provider with 
that functionality. You may be able to use HTTP chunking to reduce the 
size of the buffers SFCB creates when returning data. The chunking 
feature is enabled by default for SFCB, but the request needs to send 
"TE: Trailers" as an HTTP header for SFCB to chunk the response.

Another way to to this (if you have a provider that supports it) is to 
issue an ExecQuery request to return a subset of the log file lines (for 
example, all the log lines for a given date). Alternatively if EQ 
requests aren't supported, issue a lot of GetInstanceRequests for 
RecordInLog (or whatever class is relevant to the log file).

[Sblim-devel] Copying huge size files from Provider to client

[Arunkumar S <aru...@gm...>]

Hi,

I have a CIM Client CLI utility which connects to my SFCB provider to
manage the remote system.
Now, I have a requirement to copy the log files ( of huge size around 20MB
)  from the remote system through CIM.

Is there any standard mechanism to achieve this. ?
My  managed system have strict memory limitation, due to that, I can't
allocate string buffer for 20MB and pass the string as CMPI output value
from Provider to CLI client.

Thanks,
Arun

Re: [Sblim-devel] indication provider implementation

[George v. <geo...@gm...>]

Hi,

Loading provider issue is resolved. Its the issue one of flag is not
property so provider factory for indication is not called. Now that issue
is solved.

if you know about the below doubts, please reply to me,

Please see the mof file,

// ===================================================================

//  GK_TestIndication

// ===================================================================

[ Indication,

  Description ("Metric Process Indication"),

  Provider("cmpi:cmpiGK_Test")

]

class GK_TestIndication : CIM_InstModification

{

    boolean PowerEnabled;

    boolean UserEnabled;

};


1.How to know the which property is subscribed from clients in
provider? . Which
indication interface api and which parameter is using for identifying the
property in provider?

Regards,
George

This looks like there might be a problem loading the provider on the 
CIMOM side of things. That is where you should be checking for errors; 
maybe enable tracing as well. There are several reasons why a CIMOM 
won't load a provider, but you first need to determine if that is the 
problem.

[Sblim-devel] indication provider implementation

[George v. <geo...@gm...>]

Hi,


 Earlier I implemented an provider and also I had implemented indication
interfaces int this provider. For implementing it, I have been referring
the source code of sblim-cmpi-base source code.  I  copied here the sample
mof file,



// ===================================================================

// GK_Test

// ===================================================================

[ Description("Class representing GK_Test"),

  Provider("cmpi:cmpiGK_Test")

]

class GK_Test: CIM_LogicalElement

{

[Key, Description("This property is used to read the unique key id")]

string InstanceID;

boolean PowerEnabled;

        boolean UserEnabled;

};


// ===================================================================

//  GK_TestIndication

// ===================================================================

[ Indication,

  Description ("Metric Process Indication"),

  Provider("cmpi:cmpiGK_Test")

]

class GK_TestIndication : CIM_InstModification

{

    boolean PowerEnabled;

    boolean UserEnabled;

};




I have following doubts, if you know about it, please help me.


1.  In sblim base server, operating system code handled only one property
named "OperationalStatus". if have multiple property in mof file, how to
know which property is subscribed from clients?. for identifying iy, which
indication interface api is used?.


2.  I don't know the substription requests using wsman/wbem clients.


I am waiting for your reply.

George

In general, the description of a property can be found in the property's 
Description Qualifier, in the CIM class in which the property is 
defined.  As Klaus says, CIM makes use of inheritance, so when a class 
contains a property it's not obvious if the property was defined in the 
child class or one of the parent classes.

One way to find out is to check the MOF file for the class, which is 
normally found on the CIMOM where the class, and hence, the class' 
provider, is registered.  (the MOF should be packaged with the provider 
src code as well)

To follow your example of Linux_Ext3FileSystem from cmpi-fsvol, on a 
system running SFCB (since I'm more familiar with it rather than OP ;-), 
you can search the MOF files for the class in question:

[root@cimom ~]# find /usr/local/var/lib/sfcb/stage/ -name \*.mof -exec 
grep -A4 -H 'class Linux_Ext3FileSystem ' {} \;
/usr/local/var/lib/sfcb/stage/mofs/root/cimv2/Linux_Fsvol.mof:class 
Linux_Ext3FileSystem : CIM_UnixLocalFileSystem
/usr/local/var/lib/sfcb/stage/mofs/root/cimv2/Linux_Fsvol.mof-{
/usr/local/var/lib/sfcb/stage/mofs/root/cimv2/Linux_Fsvol.mof-  uint8 
PercentageSpaceUse;
/usr/local/var/lib/sfcb/stage/mofs/root/cimv2/Linux_Fsvol.mof-};
/usr/local/var/lib/sfcb/stage/mofs/root/cimv2/Linux_Fsvol.mof-

Not much defined here.  The parent class is CIM_UnixLocalFileSystem. 
But this isn't one of the fsvol classes, it's a CIM base class.  So we 
won't find it in the fsvol MOFs...

[root@cimom ~]# find /usr/local/var/lib/sfcb/stage/ -name \*.mof -exec 
grep -A4 -H 'class CIM_UnixLocalFileSystem ' {} \;

but rather in the MOFs for the CIM base schema.  SFCB downloads the 
schema definition from: 
http://dmtf.org/sites/default/files/cim/cim_schema_v2350/cim_schema_2.35.0Final-MOFs.zip

and unpacks it locally here:

[root@cimom ~]# find /usr/local/share/sfcb/CIM/ -name \*.mof -exec grep

    uint16 EnabledState = 5;


Another, easier way is to use the CIM GetClass call.  This causes the 
CIMOM to walk the inheritance chain for you and report all properties 
with qualifiers, regardless of where the property is define.  Using cimcli:

$ cimcli -l localhost -n root/cimv2 gc Linux_Ext3FileSystem

Unfortunately wbemcli does not show the qualifier information by default 
but you can get it by adding the -dx option, which dumps the full 
CIM-XML response to stderr, and the Description qualifier may be seen there:

$ wbemcli -dx gc http://localhost/root/cimv2:Linux_Ext4FileSystem

Alois,

CIM is an object oriented information model and makes heavy use of
inheritance. Look at the definition of CIM_FileSystem[1] and follow the
ancestor chain until you find the definition of EnabledState.

You will find EnabledState in CIM_EnabledLogicalElement with
"ValueMap" and "Values" qualifiers. These qualifiers provide a mapping
from numeric to textual values. The value '2' for EnabledState maps to
'Enabled'.

Hth,

Klaus

[Sblim-devel] Meaning of EnabledState of CIM_FileSystem

[Alois M. <am...@re...>]

Hi,

I can't find anywhere description of this (and other) CIM
properties.

On a RHEL6 testing machine, I installed tog-pegasus,
sblim-cmpi-fsvol and sblim-wbemcli.  Then I mounted a loop
device, created logical volume on it using LVM, and formatted
it as ext3 and mounted.  All wass fine: I verified that I can
read and write to the filesystem.

But I don't really understand what CMPI tells me:

    # wbemcli ei -nl 'http://u:p@here/root/cimv2:CIM_FileSystem'
    localhost:5988/root/cimv2:Linux_Ext3FileSystem.CSCreationClassName
    ="Linux_ComputerSystem",CSName="here",CreationClassName="Linux_Ext
    3FileSystem",Name="UUID=2bb434d1-c3cf-477d-91fb-727079c928a6"
    -InstanceID=
    -Caption="Ext3 local file system"
    -Description="Represents the file store controlled by a
        ComputerSystem through local means."
        -ElementName="/root/aaa" -InstallDate=
    -OperationalStatus=
    -StatusDescriptions=
    -Status="OK"
    -HealthState=
    -CommunicationStatus=
    -DetailedStatus=
    -OperatingStatus=
    -PrimaryStatus=
    -EnabledState=3
    -OtherEnabledState="NULL"
    -RequestedState=3
    -EnabledDefault=2
    -TimeOfLastStateChange=
    -AvailableRequestedStates=
    -TransitioningToState=12
    -CSCreationClassName="Linux_ComputerSystem"
    -CSName="here"
    -CreationClassName="Linux_Ext3FileSystem"
    -Name="UUID=2bb434d1-c3cf-477d-91fb-727079c928a6"
    -Root="/root/aaa"
    -BlockSize=1024
    -FileSystemSize=81230848
    -AvailableSpace=71237632
    -ReadOnly=FALSE
    -EncryptionMethod=
    -CompressionMethod=
    -CaseSensitive=
    -CasePreserved=
    -CodeSet=
    -MaxFileNameLength=255
    -ClusterSize=
    -FileSystemType="ext3"
    -PersistenceType=
    -OtherPersistenceType=
    -NumberOfFiles=
    -FreeInodes=
    -TotalInodes=
    -FSReservedCapacity=
    -PercentageSpaceUse=7
    #

Most of the fields are somewhat self-descriptive, but others
are not.  For example, value 3 of EnabledState does not tell me
anything useful.  Other filesystems from the above have
EnabledState=2 ...  /me shruggs...

~

So:  What do possible values here mean?  I tried to grep for
EnabledState through sblim-cmpi-fsvol codebase, through CIM MOF
scheme and even google, but was not successful.

Or generally, where should I search for the description /
documentation for <a_random_cim/cmpi_element>?


Thanks,
aL.

P.S.:

    # rpm -qa sblim\* tog-pegasus
    sblim-wbemcli-1.6.1-2.el6.x86_64
    sblim-cmpi-base-1.6.1-1.el6.x86_64
    tog-pegasus-2.12.0-3.el6_4.x86_64
    sblim-cmpi-fsvol-1.5.1-2.el6.x86_64

Re: [Sblim-devel] Self signed Client certificate configuration in CIMOM

[Dave H. <hel...@li...>]

Hi George,

The SSL configuration is documented here, hopefully this will help guide 
you.  Let me know if you have further questions following that.

http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/sblim/index.php?title=SfcbSsl

Specifically, you are getting the error below because you have 
sslClientCertificate=require in your configuration and your client is 
(apparently) not configured to present it's own certificate.  Clients 
are commonly *not* configured to do this by default (since a cert is 
really only required at the server).

The openssl error messages are sometimes a bit imprecise; this could 
also mean your client *did* present a certificate but it could not be 
verified by the contents of the SFCB sslClientTrustStore.  I think you 
can get this same error in this case but I don't remember for sure.

As a suggestion, you could get your full bidirectional peer-verification 
configured and tested by using one of the simple clients like wbemcli or 
cimcli, then move to using openwsman as the client and take it from there.

Thanks,
Dave

[Sblim-devel] Self signed Client certificate configuration in CIMOM

[George v. <geo...@gm...>]

Hi,

I am trying to configure CIMOM for SSL connections. I want to validate the
client certificate in server.

For that , How to configure it?..
Please let me know.

I just tried, Please see the https configuration section in sfcb.cfg file,


*sslKeyFilePath: **/etc/ssl/certs*
*/serverkey.pem*

*sslCertificateFilePath: /etc/ssl/certs/server.pem*

*sslCertList: /etc/ssl/clist.pem*

*sslClientCertificate: require*

*sslIndicationReceiverCert: ignore *

*sslClientTrustStore:  /etc/sfcb/client.pem*


Then tried to send wsman request, I got the ssl connect error.

please see the debug log message of sfcb,

--- SSL_ERROR_SSL during handshake: error:140890C7:SSL
routines:SSL3_GET_CLIENT_CERTIFICATE:peer did not return a certificate

*** httpAdapter.c:1697 SSL_ERROR_SSL error during SSL handshake -- exiting

Please let me know how to resolve it.

Regards,
George
