SIS-M Analysis Summary

• I Evaluated (Installed and Executed)
• Microsoft Corp Windows Management
  Instrumentation (WMI)
• Open Source (SourceForge.net) OpenWBEM
• Open Source (OpenPegasus.org) OpenPegasus
• Open Source WBEM Services (Sun Microsystems)
• I Also Attempted To Evaluate SNIA CIMOM
• The Open Source Project Is No Longer Active And
  Is Archived On SourceForge.net

All Analysis Was Accomplished With Dell Latitude
D600 Laptop Running Microsoft Windows XP, SP2.
1.6GHz Processor With 512MB RAM

SIS-M Analysis Summary

• WBEM Evaluation Summary
• Microsoft WMI is delivered with a browsing client
  for CIM object browsing and contains many WINxx
  providers
• OS, IIS, AD,
• OpenWBEM is not delivered with a browsing client
• Therefore could not evaluate CIM Object Hierarchy
  and CIM Providers Available For WINXP
• OpenPegasus is not delivered with a browsing
  client
• Therefore could not evaluate CIM Object Hierarchy
  and CIM Providers Available For WINXP
• WBEM Services is delivered with a browsing client
• No WINxx providers exist
