CIM Repository Synchronization for Cloud Computing Description

The CIM Repository Synchronization for Cloud Computing is a tool to synchronize Common Information Model (CIM) repoitories which are deployed on different servers. The tool can be used in an Ensemble or a cloud environment, and can be used to easily update CIM schema or data in repositories among multiple servers. CIM is an industry-standard way to describe data about applications and devices. It allows administrators and software management programs to control applications and devices on different platforms in the same way, ensuring interoperability across a network such as the Internet. The CIM model specification for these devices is presently under development through the Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF). The CIM Object Manager (CIMOM) allows CIM object management on a Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM)-enabled system. A CIM object is a representation, or model, of a managed resource such as a printer, a disk drive, or a CPU. In order for hardware devices to be managed using CIM, a management console application must communicate with a CIMOM server. CIM is composed of a specification and a schema. The specification defines the details for integration with other management models, and the schema provides the actual model descriptions. These schemas are written by the DMTF in a language called Managed Object Format (MOF). The schema works well for CIM providers implemented for OpenPegasus, an open-source implementation of the DMTF CIM and WBEM standards. This implemented module is called a CIM Object Manager (CIMOM). Use CIM Repository Synchronization for Cloud Computing to sync the repositories for Common Information Model that are deployed on several servers.
