WBEMfor Solaris on Sun Developer's Guide

Schema MOF Files

The installation of Solaris WBEM Services puts MOF files that form the CIM Schema and the Solaris Schema in the directory /opt/SUNWconn/wbem/schema. These files are automatically compiled and run when the CIM Object Manager starts.

The CIM Schema files, denoted by CIM in the file name, form standard CIM objects. For an explanation of the parts that make up the CIM Schema, see version 2.1 of the CIM Specification, which can be obtained at http://dmtf.org/spec/cims.html.

The Solaris Schema describes Solaris objects by extending the standard CIM Schema. The MOF files that make up the Solaris Schema use the Solaris prefix in the file names, but otherwise follow the same file name conventions as the CIM Schema MOF files. You can view the MOF files that make up the Solaris Schema in a text editor of your choice.
