Web-Based Enterprise Management
editWeb-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) is a set of systems management and Internet standard technologies developed to unify the management of distributed computing environments. Other system management approaches are remote shells, proprietary solutions and network management adoptations (like SNMP). WBEM is based on DMTF open standards: CIM infrastructure and schema, CIM-XML and CIM operations over HTTP.
Architecture
editA figure (e. g. a UML deployment diagram) with the WBEM architecture overview and its structural and behavioral description:
- Enterprise computer systems joined into network
- Managed systems
- CIMOM, CIM Repository, CIM providers and resources
- Management point
- Management console that has access to managed systems via CIM API and underlying stack of protocols
- A number of logical links and dependencies between components
- Managed systems
Advantages and disadvantages
editExample
editA walk through WBEM stack from an action on management point to response from managed system (e. g. system administrator uses management console (some kind of user interface) to get a list of deployed software on the remote host):
- On the management point host
- Management console
- CIM API for some language (C++, Java, etc.)
- Get a list of
CIM_SoftwareElement
s
- Get a list of
- CIM-XML encoded message with request
- HTTP message that contains CIM-XML message is sent to managed host
- CIM API for some language (C++, Java, etc.)
- Operating system sockets interface
- Management console
- On the managed host
- Operating system sockets interface
- CIMOM
- CIMOM acts like HTTP server and receives the message from management console
- CIMOM selects an appropriate CIM Provider according to the CIM Repository
- CIM Provider
- Receives a message via some sort of provider interface (like CMPI)
- Selects a list of deployed software components from its own management information base
- Returns it to CIMOM via provider interface
- CIMOM again
- Creates the response in CIM-XML and sends it back via HTTP
Implementations
editWBEM in operating systems
edit- Novell has adopted the OpenWBEM open source implementation of WBEM and includes it in SUSE Linux Enterprise Server
- Sun Microsystems includes its own Java WBEM Services in Solaris
- Microsoft has developed the WMI technology and includes it in Windows
CIMOM implementations
editWBEM clients
editUltimateCIM is an eclipse plugin that enables you to connect to a running WBEM server and explore CIMOM in real time. You can explore classes and instances, walk associations, execute WQL queries, view a graphical representation of the class hierarchy, and much more. This tool is essential for CIM (WBEM) client development, quality assurance, debugging, and troubleshooting.
