  • Page 7: Understanding Smi-S, Cim, And Mof

    SMI-S uses SLP version 2 (RFC 2608) to discover CIM servers. After the CIM servers are identified, the CIM client uses a standard Server profile to determine which element-specific profiles are supported by the CIM servers. All SMI-S based CIM servers must have a Server profile. Dell PowerVault ML6000 SMI-S Reference Guide...

  • Page 8: Your Library, Smi-S, And Cim

    SMI-S relies on object-oriented classes as defined in CIM. These classes are frequently defined using Unified Modeling Language (UML). To understand SMI-S and the Dell extensions present in this document, you must have a basic understanding of CIM classes and UML.

  • Page 9: Understanding Mof

    These MOF files are an extension to the standard CIM schema version 2.9. For information about the standard CIM schema version 2.9 MOF files, go to the DMTF website at the following URL: http://www.dmtf.org. To view copies of the Dell Managed Object Format (MOF) file for the ML6000 library, see MOF Files on page 17.

  • Page 11: Cim Profiles And Subprofiles

    Detailed descriptions of classes can be found in the CIM 2.9 preliminary schema. For a comprehensive view of all the supported profiles and subprofiles, see Figure 1 on page 8. Dell PowerVault ML6000 SMI-S Reference Guide...

  • Page 13: Storage Library Subprofiles

    The Fibre Channel Target Port Subprofile models the Fibre Channel-specific aspects of a target storage system. For Fibre Channel ports, the concrete subclass of CIM_LogicalPort is CIM_FCPort. CIM_FCPort is always associated 1 to 1 with a CIM_SCSIProtocolEndpoint instance. Dell PowerVault ML6000 SMI-S Reference Guide...

  • Page 14: Element Counting Subprofile

    Element Counting Subprofile The Element Counting Subprofile defines methods to count the number of physical tapes, storage media locations, and other classes within a storage library (or other system type). Such methods allow clients to avoid retrieving all instances of physical element classes simply to count them. Therefore, network traffic will be saved between client applications and storage library providers.

  • Page 15: Service Discovery And Cim Indications

    SLP is disabled if both HTTP and HTTPS are disabled. You can disable the CIM server by disabling HTTPS; HTTP is always enabled. If you disable the CIM server and need to enable it again in the future, refer to the library’s Dell PowerVault ML6000 Tape Library User’s Guide.

  • Page 16: Discovering The Cim Server

    Discovering the CIM Server When you discover the CIM server that is embedded within your library, you not only determine its location within your SAN, but you also determine which services it supports (as defined by the server’s profiles). Discovering CIM servers provides information about the physical and logical entities within your SAN. This information changes dynamically as SAN entities are added, moved, or removed.

  • Page 17: Using Cim Indications

    The storage library profile and its subprofiles contain a list of indication filters that your CIM clients can receive, while the messages themselves are defined in the SMI-S Indications subprofile. The following table provides WQL queries for all indications supported by the ML6000. Dell PowerVault ML6000 SMI-S Reference Guide...

  • Page 81: Fibre Channel Blade Support

    • The Masking Mapping Profile As of 1.2.0, these subprofiles are not supported by the Storage Media Library profile, and so the Dell PowerVault ML6000 does not show support for them in the Profile Registration Subprofile. The diagram below shows the library object model with blade support. The objects or instances that were added for blade support are shown in blue, and they are discussed in more detail in the following sections.

  • Page 86: Lun Mapping (Evps)

    LUN Mapping (EVPS) The implementation of LUN Mapping is done for blade systems and is applicable for when the LUN Mapping (EVPS) feature is enabled on the library. The implementation is done using the objects of the SMI-S 1.2.0 Mapping and Masking Subprofile, but the library does not claim support for it because the SML Profile does not support it as of 1.2.0.
