Managing Solaris Volume Manager

The Solaris Volume Manager CIM/WBEM Application Programming Interface (API) provides a public, standards-based programmatic interface to observe and configure Solaris Volume Manager.

CIM defines the data model, referred to as the “schema“ which describes the following:

This model is made available through the Solaris Web Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) SDK. The WBEM SDK is a set of JavaTM technology-based API's that allow access to system management capabilities that are represented by CIM.

For more information about the CIM/WBEM SDK, see the Solaris WBEM Developer’s Guide.
