Jim Davis
CEO & CTO
WBEM Solutions, Inc.

Audience

• The intended audience are Software Developers/Engineers who have a working knowledge of the Common Information Model (CIM) and Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM).
  
  

Synopsis

• This session teaches how to use CIM to solve management problems within an enterprise computing environment. To perform a specific management task, a set of CIM Classes and properties must be used. Such sets are known as Profiles. Using real world examples, this session will go through the process of defining Profiles for implementing interoperable CIM-based solutions.. Each example exercise will explore the steps of:
  1. Problem and solution definition
  2. Identification of the set of CIM classes and properties that will be used
  3. Provider instrumentation development
  4. Client management application development. Using real-time demonstrations and source code walk-through techniques, attendees will learn an approach for accomplishing each step.
