This document provides an overview of the SNIA CIM Prototype Project, outlining the roles of key contributors, including Hitachi Data Systems and IBM Corporation, as well as details about the project's status as of September 3, 1999. It details various prototype components like the Asset Query Engine (AQE) and Storage Asset Calculator (SAC), along with the programming environments employed. The aim is to establish a comprehensive network of storage providers using WBEM technology to enhance storage management capabilities. Collaboration with vendors such as EMC and Sun is highlighted, along with pending tasks and deadlines.

Prototype Components Storage Facility Provider CIMOM • Custom interface based on the storage vendor • Function: Get mgmt data from SF and instantiate into CIMOM • Target Provider Date: Sept 24, 1999 • Provider platform: Windows-based or Java based • Current Provider list: EMC, HDS, IBM, STK, Sun • Other Prototype contributors: Sun (Jiro), Microsoft
WBEM Server Components WBEM Server Storage Facility Provider Asset Query Engine XML/HTTP CIMOM • CIMOMs: • Windows CIMOM from Microsoft • Platforms: Win95/98+SP 3+/NT 4.0+/2000 • SDK Delivery: Was 9/1 - now TBD • Solaris CIMOM from Microsoft • Platforms: Solaris 2.6+ (Sparc or Intel Host) • SDK Delivery: Sept 9th delivery
WBEM Server Components WBEM Server Storage Facility Provider Asset Query Engine XML/HTTP CIMOM • Asset Query Engine (AQE): • Sun will send to all Providers • Target date: Sept 20, 1999 • WBEM Server Platform: • Solaris 2.6+ (Sparc/Intel host) or • Win 2000/NT 4.0+/95 or 98 with service packs • AQE is a Jiro ™ component - requires JDK 1.2
SRM Server Components HTTPS / (XML/DTD?) SRM Host XML / XSL (DTD?) Host Arrival Announcer Storage Asset Calculator 2 sec poll • SRM Server Components • Jiro ™ based - requires JDK 1.2 • Sun target delivery date: Sept 20, 1999 • Storage Asset Calculator (SAC): • Interface to CIMOM - HTTPS/XML • Interface to XML/XSL? (TBD with Sun/Microsoft)
Prototype Directory Prototype Add/Delete Function Perl CGI Prototype Directory Client GUI (Applet) SNIA Web pages SNIA.org Web Browser (IE5) • Prototype Directory Fields • Vendor name text string • Vendor logo URL • E-mail contact text string • Provider CIMOM URL/Namespace • Vendor web page URL
Prototype Directory Prototype Add/Delete Function Perl CGI Prototype Directory Client GUI (Applet) SNIA Web pages SNIA.org Web Browser (IE5) • To reside on SNIA.org for the demo, now on Jiro.org • Prototype Add/Delete Function: • Perl/CGI provided by Sun (Target date 09-13-99) • Client GUI for CIM Prototype: • Browser must support XML/XSL • SNIA to help provide web/GUI support
CIM Prototype Demo • Two laptops (John Tyrrell/Mike Dutch) • John’s laptop: • SRM Components (HAA and SAC) - Optional • JDK 1.2 (Optional) • Browser to support XML/XSL • Mike’s laptop: • Browser to support XML/XSL • Two telephone lines for internet connect to SNIA.org • Two laptop projectors (for combined presentation/demo)
CIM Prototype Status • CIM Providers: • EMC - testing Sun WBEM - to complete by 9-13-99 • HDS: • Waiting for fix on Microsoft WBEM • Sent static MOFs for Sun SRM Component testing • STK: Development team mtg in Boulder 9/7 week • Sun - completed dynamic provider - ready for system test • IBM - Reassignment of prototype developer
CIM Prototype Issues • Microsoft: • No style sheet (XSL) developer provided yet • No XML CIMOM - waiting for NDA decision • Responsible person: Patrick Thompson • IBM: • Need to get new programmer jump-started • All Provider vendors contacted - all willing to help • Doug Shue will visit some of them week of 9/7 • Sun • Sun/CIMOM doesn’t work with composite keys • EMC to test the fix in week of 9/7
