Managing Solaris Volume Manager
The Solaris Volume Manager CIM/WBEM Application Programming Interface (API) provides a public, standards-based
programmatic interface to observe and configure Solaris Volume Manager. This API is based
on the Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF) Common Information Model (CIM). For more
information about DMTF, see https://www.dmtf.org.
CIM defines the data model, referred to as the “schema“ which describes the
following:
Attributes of and the operations against Solaris Volume Manager devices
Relationships among the various Solaris Volume Manager devices
Relationships among the Solaris Volume Manager devices and other aspects of the operating system, such as file systems
This model is made available through the Solaris Web Based Enterprise Management (WBEM)
SDK. The WBEM SDK is a set of JavaTM technology-based API's that allow
access to system management capabilities that are represented by CIM.
For more information about the CIM/WBEM SDK, see the Solaris WBEM Developer’s Guide.
