Preface |
This WDR Developer's Guide is intended for use by systems administrators who want to develop applications that perform DR operations remotely using WBEM, which is an industry standard for Web-based enterprise management.
Developers can write WDR client applications in languages such as Java, using software development kits (SDKs) such as the Sun WBEM SDK.
This book is intended for the Sun Fire 15K, 12K, 6800, 4810, 4800, and 3800 system platform administrator who has a working knowledge of UNIX® systems, particularly those based on the Solaris operating environment. If you do not have such knowledge, first read the Solaris user and system administrator books provided with this system, and consider UNIX system administration training.
Chapter 1, "Introduction to DR," provides an overview of WDR, and describes the kind of tasks that WDR enables you to perform.
Chapter 2, "Using Solaris WBEM Services in WDR," describes the different layers in Solaris WBEM Services, which are included in the Solaris operating environment.
Chapter 3, "Using Process Indications," describes process indications, which are notifications of system events to which each WDR client can subscribe.
Chapter 4, "Classes, Domains, Associations, Indications in WDR" introduces all the classes, indications (of system events), and associations that WDR provides to the developer. All methods and properties that the developer needs to use are described in this chapter.
Chapter 5, "Programming Techniques in WDR" presents programming techniques that the developer may find useful in creating WDR applications that simplify and automate systems administration on Sun Fire 15K/12K and 6800/4810/4800/3800 systems.
This document does not contain information on basic UNIX® commands and procedures such as shutting down the system, booting the system, and configuring devices.
