Re: Getting incomplete object path

They are rather not equal. If they are equal, why do we need both 
enumerateInstances and EnumerateInstanceNames, when only one is 
sufficient.
As being mentioned in the mail chain by Kirk and Hwang. 

class Person {
  [key]String name;
  Uint32 age;
}

InstanceName:-
  nameSpace:/Person.name=Pranav ==> This will give enough info to locate 
the instance in the repository. But this itselt is different from Instance
Person
{
name=Pranav;
age=x;
};
where x is some unsinged int;

Small correction, I should have used CIMInstance,

Array<CIMInstance> enumerateInstances()  == {
                              
        Array<CIMObjectPath> instaNames = enumerateInstanceNames(); 
                                      Array<CIMInstance> compInstanace[i];
                                      for(i=0; i<instaNames.size(), i++) 
                                          compInstanace[i] = 
getInstance(instanceNames[i]));
                                      }

Let me know if I am still wrong here..

It is not clear to me what the concern is?

GetInstance() and enumerateInstances() return complete instances of 
objects in the search criteria, unless filtered by a passed in property 
list.
But enumerateInstanceNames() does not return complete instances.  It only 
returns namespace and key property values sufficient so that getInstance() 
could be used to get the rest.

Pegasus::enumerateInstances should not be equal to 
Pegasus::enumerateInstanceNames.
It should return the same number of instances, but not the same amount of 
information about each instance.

While Pegasus::getInstance and Pegasus::enumerateInstances could return 
different number of instances, but should have the same amount of 
information about each instance.

Hey Venkat,

I did not get what is wrong here, even DMTF says the same and Pegasus is 
one of the implementation. Pegasus::enumerateInstances should be equal to 
Pegasus::enumerateInstanceNames, running Pegasus::getInstance over each 
individual Pegasus::CIMObjectPath retyrned from enumerateInstanceNames. I 
am not getInstance will return an array.

That's cool Venkat, Thank You for pointing me to the cause for this

Per the DMTF specification, the GetInstance operation returns an

Hello,

I am enumerating a class instance names(Pegasus::CIMObjectPaths') using
Pegasus::enumerateInstanceNames and after that doing Pegasus::getInstance
on the obtained object paths. I get entire instance details, but the 
object
path inside the obtained Pegasus::CIMInstance, is incomplete, it shows 
only
the creation class name, rest of the details are not embedded in the
Pegasus::CIMObjectPath. I see the instance properties but only object path
is incomplete.
Can some one spread some light on the issue?

I am using OpenPegasus 2.11.1 for client and my Cim server and provider is
from EMC.

Is this EMC cim server/provider issue?
