Abstract: A MOF file for management information of an information handling system is automatically generated from CIM metadata that represents the configuration of the information handling system and a CIM schema that defines classes of the CIM. A MOF file precompiler extracts MOF classes from the CIM metadata and applies the CIM schema to automatically generate the MOF file for the information handling system. A CIMOM mapping tool maps settings of different operating systems, such as WMI and Open WBEM, to provide a MOF file associated with each operating system's CIMOM implementation.

Abstract: A method of verifying compliance with a Common Information Model (CIM) includes accessing a CIM metadata file and information indicative of a revised CIM Schema and using the accessed information to produce a revised CIM metadata file. The revised metadata file includes information indicative of CIM components associated with a CIM implementation. The CIM components may include the particular CIM Schema, CIM provider, and CIM profile used. The metadata file may be an XML file and may indicate extension classes associated with the CIM implementation and corresponding CIM Schema defined parent classes. The method may also include providing the revised metadata file to a validation engine having access to information indicative of CIM extension classes indicated in the revised metadata file and CIM Schema classes, and generating a compliant/non compliant signal indicative of whether the CIM implementation is CIM compliant.
