[Xen-cim] LTC provider working on SLES10/openwbem

[Jim Fehlig <jfehlig@xxxxxxxxxx>]

FYI,

I have managed to get one of the LTC providers (Xen_ComputerSystem) 
working on SLES using openwbem cimom, the xm shim, and libvirt.  The 
following changes were made:
libvirt
- changed xend_parse_sexp_desc() to not fail if kernel not found.  sexp 
from xend does not contain kernel for domain 0.
Provider
- In Xen_HostedDisk.[mof | c], changed class Linux_LogicalDisk to 
CIM_LogicalDisk as I don't have access to sblim package containing 
Linux_LogicalDisk
- In Xen_HostedMemory.[mof | c], changed class Linux_CacheMemory to 
CIM_Memory as I don't have access to sblim package containing 
Linux_CacheMemory
- In Xen_ComputerSystem.mof, added provider qualifier to specify 
implementation library.  I will have to figure out how to register the 
providers in openwbem.  The sblim-cmpi-base package for SLES contains 
the provider qualifier for each class definition, so apparently there is 
no better solution.  I will have to talk to the openwbem group about 
adding a better registration mechanism.
- Changes to Makefile.am for building the xm shim and linking it with 
the providers.
Don't think I want to spend too much time getting the other providers 
working since the code should be changed to reflect current SVPC model.  
As I see it, the next task is to modify the current Xen model to reflect 
the SVPC model and then adjust the code accordingly.  An item for 
tomorrow's discussion?
Regards,
Jim
