Description / Abstract: Common Information Model (CIM) Infrastructure

The DMTF Common Information Model (CIM) Infrastructure is an approach to the management of systems and networks that applies the basic structuring and conceptualization techniques of the objectoriented paradigm. The approach uses a uniform modeling formalism that together with the basic repertoire of object-oriented constructs supports the cooperative development of an object-oriented schema across multiple organizations.

Clause 5 describes an object-oriented meta model based on the Unified Modeling Language (UML). This model includes expressions for common elements that must be clearly presented to management applications (for example, object classes, properties, methods, and associations).

Clause 5 does not describe specific CIM implementations, application programming interfaces (APIs), or communication protocols.

CIM Query Language Specification

The DMTF Common Information Model (CIM) uses a basic object-oriented structure and conceptualization techniques in its approach to managing hardware, software, systems, and networks. This approach provides a formal consistent model that enables cooperative development of an objectoriented schema across multiple organizations and problem domains.

Clause 6 describes a query language used to extract data from a CIM-based management infrastructure.
