CIM Modeling and Monitoring tool

The Common Information Model (CIM) is an industry-standard way of describing data about applications and devices so that administrators and software management programs can control applications and devices on different platforms in the same way, ensuring interoperability across a network such as the Internet. CIM was developed by the Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF).

CIM Modeling and Monitoring tool comprises two separate components: CIM modeling and CIM monitoring.

Using CIM Modeling tool, users can quickly become familiar with a given CIM object model (CIMOM) by connecting to a CIM Object Manager server and visually interacting with a given object model. Users can automatically list classes, relationships, and attributes and perform path analysis.

The Monitoring tool allows users to monitor the events and changes to the CIM objects managed by remote CIM server, log any specific variables of interest, and record trends by using intelligent mining analysis technology. The tool is interoperable across different flavors of CIMOM servers and supports a visual interface for monitoring the CIM resource values.

CIM Modeling and Monitoring tool is a handy toolset designed for the management of CIM objects.
