RE: open pegasus 2.12 & SCVMM integration

Hi Ben Wang,

I'm not sure what is wrong with your request, but a similar request went through when I tested.

Maybe you can try the above request. You could also try using the cimsub command with "-c" for creating the filter.
You can enable cimserver tracing to know why it is failing.  "cimserver traceLevel=4 traceComponents=All" (for tracing all components at level 4).

Subject: open pegasus 2.12 & SCVMM integration

Hi all,

I am using Open Pegasus 2.12 + CIMPLE provider to integration with MS SCVMM 2012. According to MS spec, life cycle indication will be used to sync client cache with provider.

SCVMM will try to register client specific filters during its discovery stage. However, my provider fails to respond to the registration request, here is snippet of xml dump

I do have some debug messages in my CIM_IndicationFilter and CIM_InstDeletion provider, but those message never get printed out. It seems to me that Pegasus responds to the client registration request without asking my provider.

I am still exploring the right way to implement an indication provider, so I appreciate if someone can cast light on my issue even if it sounds a little dumb:)

PS: I did have PEGASUS_ENABLE_CQL=true when I compiled Open Pegasus.

Could somebody cast some light on my issue?

Thank you very much.
