Functional diagrams of the Common Information Model agent

The functional diagrams of the Common Information Model (CIM) agent object model show specific functions that the CIM agent provides, including storage configuration service, Copy Services, LUN masking, and security. The diagrams also illustrate the architecture of the CIM Agent for the Lenovo Storage V7000.

Access point subprofile
The access point subprofile of the Common Information Model (CIM) agent for the Lenovo Storage V7000 consists of several basic classes.
Block server performance subprofile
The block server performance subprofile describes performance statistics.
Block services profile
You can use several object classes to manipulate storage pools.
Clustered system subprofile
There are several classes and associations that provide the function of a clustered-system service.
Copy Services
The IBMTSSVC_StorageConfigurationService class provides the methods to create copy relationships.
Disk drive lite profile
The disk drive is the primary hardware element of the disk drive lite profile.
Disk-drive sparing
Disk-drive sparing has a basic structure associated with RedundancySet.
Enclosure profile
The enclosure is the primary hardware element of the enclosure profile.
Extent composition subprofile
The extent composition subprofile links CompositeExtents and StorageExtents.
FC port profile
The FC port profile models the Fibre Channel connection relationship between the Lenovo Storage V7000 and the back-end storage that the Lenovo Storage V7000 virtualizes.
Interop profile
The interop profile contains the classes that are used to find the registration profiles from the interop namespace.
iSCSI relationships
The iSCSI-specific aspects of a target device include instance and association classes.
Job control profile
The job control profile contains classes that are used to monitor asynchronous commands that format, migrate, or run copy operations on a device.
Location subprofile
The location subprofile represents the relationship between location and physical package.
Masking and mapping profile
The masking and mapping profile provides an interface to create, modify, delete, and mask hosts.
Multiple computer system profile
The multiple computer system profile uses multiple systems to present a virtual computer system.
Object manager adapter profile
The primary function of the object manager adapter profile is to turn the indication service on or off.
Physical package
The physical package of the Common Information Model (CIM) agent for the Lenovo Storage V7000 consists of two classes and two association classes.
Server profile
The server profile of the Common Information Model (CIM) agent for the Lenovo Storage V7000 consists of several basic classes.
Software profile
The software profile is used by the CIM agent to model the software for the Lenovo Storage V7000 clustered system and for the CIM agent.
Storage volume mirroring
You can create two mirrored copies of a storage volume to increase data availability. The volume remains online and available as long as one copy is available.
