SMI-S Model

The basic idea is to extend the access points subprofile of SMI-S to include linkages to the data model supported through the access point. For example, we might want to have an association between the access point and the specific RegisteredSubprofile instance (as defined in ProfileRegisteredProfiles subprofile).

Another thought is to include a set of capabilities/settings that is attached directly to the access point (much like capabilities are attached to services) that explain the set of operations supported through the access point.

Here's a pdf file with powerpoint diagram LICModel2008-04-29.pdf.

And here's a pdf of the SMI-S Scoping Document: SMI-S_1.5_Scoping_Document_-_LaunchInContextv0.pdf.

And here's some DRAFT MOF for the new classes:
