HP WBEM Services for HP-UX
HP WBEM Services for HP-UX is a platform- and resource-independent Distributed

controlling a diverse set of resources. The HP WBEM Services for HP-UX product is the
HP-UX implementation of the DMTF WBEM standard.
HP WBEM Services for HP-UX, version A.01.05.08, supports HP-UX 11i v2 and is
