7-1 Device Manager and CIM/WBEM
Device Manager supports WBEM, which is defined by the standards-setting organization DMTF.
WBEM is a standard proposed by the DMTF for managing networked devices, including hosts and
storage subsystems, over the Internet. WBEM enables you to share data about devices in different
environments (such as environments with different vendors, operating systems, or protocols)
without considering the differences. WBEM is based on CIM, an object-oriented information model.
CIM, defined by DMTF, is a standardized approach for managing systems in network environments.
CIM provides a framework for expressing the data to be managed. Applying CIM to storage
subsystems enables you to use standardized methods to manage the configuration and status of
storage subsystems in networks.
CAUTION: In Device Manager, when registering a storage subsystem that is to be managed, use
the account of an administrator for the entire storage subsystem. Do not use the account of an
administrator who only has permissions for part of the storage subsystem.
The CIM models provided by Device Manager conform to the SMI-S specifications (SNIA-CTP(SNIA
Conformance Testing Program)) endorsed by SNIA (Storage Networking Industry Association). The
CIM models of the Device Manager server are defined in MOF (Managed Object Format) files
provided by Device Manager.
CIM clients can access Device Manager by using the CIM XML/HTTP interface defined by WBEM.
