September 2013 - openlmi-devel - Fedora Mailing-Lists

by Tomáš Smetana

Hello, I'm now trying to figure out how to improve the provider registration process to make things at least look less fragile from the user's perspective. We're still facing problems with the providers and CIMOMs installation: the openlmi-* provider packages depend on a virtual require (cim-server) and it's beyond our control which package is installed by yum to satisfy the dependency (sblim-sfcb currently IIRC). If this is not what the user wants or the user decides to switch the CIMOM, install another one etc., then the providers have to be re-registered again manually which is not an easy task since the order of the mofs/regs is not saved anywhere and each CIMOM (and even CIMOMs version) requires special procedure. My plan is to store the registrations in a special CIMOM-independent database which would enable the user to re-do the registrations at any time. Most notably we should be able to re-register whatever provider is installed on the system from the CIMOMs package post-install scriptlets. The new script should offer three actions: register, unregister and reregister. Registration and unregistration will require the same arguments as the current script. I'm pretty sure there are many details and combinations that can't be handled reasonably well. However here's some idea dump on how I suppose things might work: ============================================================================= Registration The user specifies one or more MOF files zero or one REG file. Optionally will request the CIMOM to register for, namespace and version of the provider for the REG file. If the CIMOM was not explicitly requested register for all the known CIMOMs in the database and for all the CIMOMs installed/found. Registration should handle the update transparently. The files, version string, CIMOM and namespace form the "registration object" which is what we need to be able to re-assemble during re-registration. 1 if (none of the MOFs/REG in the database yet) { 2 registration = create new registration (id + timestamp) 3 } else if (the known MOFs/REG belong to the same registration) { 4 registration = the one the MOFs/REG belong to 5 if (requested CIMOMs != CIMOMs of the existing registration) 6 exit with error: upgrade must be valid for all the previous 7 registrations 8 } else { 9 exit with error: only one registration can be replaced 10 } 11 unregister the previous registration from CIMOM(s) 12 if (error) { 13 exit 14 } 15 remove the old files backups 16 copy the new MOFs/REG to the backup location 17 update/insert database records (don't overwrite existing registration timestamps) ============================================================================= Unregistration Nothing fancy happens here: We only have to be careful to keep the registration data consistent and allow to unregister the same and complete set of classes that has been registered previously. 1 for every selected CIMOM: 2 if (MOFs/REG not in the same registration || unknown) { 3 exit with error 4 unregister in the CIMOM 5 } 6 delete the database records (MOFs/REG, registration) 7 delete the backup files ============================================================================= Re-registration: Should be simple: just reconstruct the command line from the database. The ordering of the registration is determined by the timestamp of their initial registration (updates don't change the timestamp). 1 for every selected CIMOM { 2 get MOFs/REG/namespaces/version in the reverse timestamp order 3 re-run the CIMOM registration (using backup MOF/REG files) 4 } I'm not quite sure how clear I made myself with the ideas and I assume many problems get spotted in the real world testing. However if you have some ideas or corrections... I'm all ear. Thanks and regards, -- Tomáš Smetana Platform Engineering, Red Hat

ANNOUNCE: KonkretCMPI 0.9.0 released

by Radek Novacek

Disclaimer: I know this is OpenLMI mailing list, but I will post announcements about new versions of KonkretCMPI here, because many of OpenLMI providers use it. Since KonkretCMPI upstream [1] is dead for long time (last upstream version 0.8.7 was released 2008-10-22) I've decided to continue development myself. I don't have access to original SCM repository or web page, so I've created git repo at github [2]. Highlights of version 0.9.0: * Use CMake as buildsystem (added FindCMPI.cmake and FindKonkretCMPI.cmake modules) * Python bindings for the MOF parser * Fixed using experimental schema * Assertion crash fixed * Add missing headers * Many other minor bugs fixed You can download the new version from github [3]. It is already in Fedora rawhide and it's coming to Fedora 18 soon.

Clarification Required in Implementing Nfs Share

by Chethan Y

Hi, Please Correct me if i am wrong and let me know if there are any suggestions or help. We Are Implementing Nfs Protocol for NAS Head profile. As per my understanding CIM_ManagedElement (Super Class) | CIM_ManagedSystemElement (Sub Class) | CIM_LogicalElement | CIM_EnabledLogicalElement | | [ CIM_Share ] CIM_Process | | [ CIM_FileShare ] CIM_UnixProcess | [ CIM_NfsShare ] Instances of CIM_Process are running but CIM_Share is not supported. So, We need to enable and implement CIM_Share and later on we are going to add Nfs protocol for CIM_Nfsshare and CIFS protocol for CIM_CIFSshare. CIM_EnabledLogicalElement is inherited in LMI_Storage-Base.mof Where Could i find the CIM_Share file and i am confused in which file should i start the implementation ? . And also how to create a new cim class and register it? Speedy reply would be really appreciated .

query regarding Nas head profile.

by sunil kumar

Hi, Is Nas Network Ports profile already implemented? if yes. we are running nfs server process, but couldn't find nfs server process instance in CIM_ProtocolEndPoint, CIM_NetworkPort. we are getting confusion in development of NAS Head. Before we develop a Nas Head we need to implement an association between LMI_ProtocolEndpoint provider and LMI_NetworkPortprovider, Is this already defined. Whether we need to continue the development of openlmi-network in c or python. we have all .c source code in git source. whether python scripts are their in openlmi-networking also, if their. where is it present? we have different teams of development of networking and storage. how do we start proceeding?

implementation of nfs head

by sunil kumar

hi We are in implementation of nas head. need to know whether we are following the correct procedure of developing. In the 60_LMI_Networking.mof file at the end we created the following association as told in smis profile.. /******************************* * NAS Network PORTS Profile * *******************************/ [ Association, Provider("cmpi:cmpiLMI_Networking"), Version("0.1.0"), Description("An association between a portocolendpoint and networkport.") ] class LMI_ProtocolDeviceSAPImplementation: CIM_DeviceSAPImplementation { [ Key, Override("Antecedent"), Description("The instance of CIM_ProtocolEndpoint subclass " "representing network device.") ] CIM_NetworkPort REF Antecedent; [ Key, Override("Dependent"), Description("The instance of LMI_NetworkPort that represent " "same device as Antecedent.") ] CIM_ProtocolEndpoint REF Dependent; }; [ Provider("cmpi:cmpiLMI_Networking"), Version("0.1.0"), Description("End point protocol") ] we again complied and registered the mof file.. we got the new CMI_DeviseSAPImplemntaiton in src and in local/yawn.. now if this is procedure is correct we ll write the method in it.. We also have python script and cmpi in c. bit confuse .. if any other procedure to followed let us know. we ll follow that..
