cimworkshop(1M)		System Administration Commands	       cimworkshop(1M)

NAME
       cimworkshop - start the Sun WBEM CIM WorkShop application

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/sadm/bin/cimworkshop

DESCRIPTION
       The  cimworkshop command starts Sun WBEM CIM WorkShop, a graphical user
       interface that enables you to create, modify, and view the classes  and
       instances that describe the managed resources on your system.

       Managed	resources  are	described  using  a standard information model
       called Common Information Model (CIM). A CIM class is a computer repre‐
       sentation,  or model, of a type of managed resource, such as a printer,
       disk drive, or CPU. A CIM instance is  a	 particular  managed  resource
       that  belongs  to  a  particular	 class. Instances contain actual data.
       Objects can be shared by any WBEM-enabled system, device,  or  applica‐
       tion.  CIM  objects  are	 grouped  into	meaningful  collections called
       schema.	One or more schemas can be stored in directory-like structures
       called namespaces.

       The  CIM WorkShop application displays a Login dialog box. Context help
       is displayed on the left side of the CIM WorkShop  dialog  boxes.  When
       you click on a field, the help content changes to describe the selected
       field.

       By default, CIM WorkShop uses the RMI protocol to connect  to  the  CIM
       Object Manager on the local host, in the default namespace, rootManager
       using the standard XML/HTTP protocol from the Desktop  Management  Task
       Force.  When  a connection is established, all classes contained in the
       default namespace are displayed in the left side of  the	 CIM  WorkShop
       window.

       The  name  of the current namespace is listed in the tool bar. All pro‐
       gramming operations are performed within a namespace.  Four  namespaces
       are created in a root namespace during installation:

       cimv2	       Contains the default CIM classes that represent managed
		       resources on your system.

       security	       Contains the security classes used by  the  CIM	Object
		       Manager to represent access rights for users and names‐
		       paces.

       system	       Contains properties for configuring the CIM Object Man‐
		       ager.

       snmp	       Contains	 pre-defined SNMP-related classes and all SNMP
		       MOF files that are compiled.

       The cimworkshop application allows you to perform the following tasks:

       Create, view, and change namespaces.

	   Use the CIM WorkShop application to view all namespaces.  A	names‐
	   pace	 is  a directory-like structure that can store CIM classes and
	   instances.

       Create, delete, and view CIM classes.

	   You cannot modify the unique attributes of the classes that make up
	   the	CIM  and Solaris Schema. You can create a new instance or sub‐
	   class of the class  and  modify  the	 desired  attributes  in  that
	   instance or subclass.

       Create, modify, delete, and view CIM instances.

	   You	can  add instances to a class and modify its inherited proper‐
	   ties or create new properties. You can  also	 change	 the  property
	   values of a CIM instance.

       Invoke methods.

	   You can set input values for a parameter of a method and invoke the
	   method.

       When CIM WorkShop connects to the CIM Object Manager  in	 a  particular
       namespace,  all subsequent operations occur within that namespace. When
       you connect to a namespace, you can access the classes and instances in
       that  namespace (if they exist) and in any namespaces contained in that
       namespace.

       When you use CIM WorkShop to view CIM data, the WBEM  system  validates
       your  login  information	 on  the current host. By default, a validated
       WBEM user is granted read access to the	CIM  Schema.  The  CIM	Schema
       describes  managed objects on your system in a standard format that all
       WBEM-enabled systems and applications can interpret.

       Read Only       Allows read-only access to CIM  Schema  objects.	 Users
		       with this privilege can retrieve instances and classes,
		       but cannot create, delete, or modify CIM objects.

       Read/Write      Allows full read, write, and delete access to  all  CIM
		       classes and instances.

       Write	       Allows write and delete, but not read access to all CIM
		       classes and instances.

       None	       Allows no access to CIM classes and instances.

USAGE
       The cimworkshop command is not a tool for  a  distributed  environment.
       Rather, this command is used for local administration on the machine on
       which the CIM Object Manager is running.

EXIT STATUS
       The cimworkshop utility terminates with exit status 0.
