COSMOS User's Guide
COSMOS provides federated configuration management database specific features
that enable you to quickly develop, test, and deploy federated configuration
management database components.
In addition, since the federated configuration management database and MDRs
are implemented in COSMOS as Data Managers, you can integrate and leverage all
the COSMOS components.
The COSMOS federated configuration management database features include the
following:
- Eclipse wizard for creating an MDR
- The COSMOS tooling includes a wizard that generates an MDR. You can customize
the generated MDR to utilize your specific management interfaces. Refer to
the "Constructing a Data Manager" chapter of the COSMOS Development Guide
for more information. Chapter does
not exist in the DG; what chapter should be referenced instead?
- Federated configuration management database transformation services
- The transformation services provides utilities for processing federated
configuration management database requests and responses. These services can
be used to assist with XML parsing and conversions. Refer to the "Query and
Registration Services" chapter of the COSMOS Development Guide for
more information. Chapter does not
exist in the DG; what chapter should be referenced instead?
- Federated configuration management database registration services
- The registration services assist in building MDRs which support federated
configuration management database registration. Refer to the "Query and Registration
Services" chapter of the COSMOS Development Guide for more information.
- Support for federated configuration management database service meta
data
- The federated configuration management database service meta data transformations
assist in parsing and processing service meta data. COSMOS provides an extension
point for the integration of service meta data into the MDR WSDL. Refer to
the "Query and Registration Services" chapter of the COSMOS Development
Guide for more information.
- A Broker service that supports federated configuration management database
components
- The COSMOS Domain and Broker provide a registry that simplifies the task
of locating federated configuration management database components (MDRs and
federating CMDBs).
- Web User Interface that supports federated configuration management databases
- The COSMOS Web UI supports the federated configuration management database
Query and Registration services. Federated configuration management database
queries can be constructed visually using the query builder. The query can
be executed and the responses are visually rendered in the UI. The Web UI
also supports the federated configuration management database registration
services. In addition to demos, the Web UI is useful for testing your federated
configuration management database components during development. Refer to
the Web Console chapter for more information.
- Sample code for MDRs
- COSMOS includes an example MDR and a registration example. Refer to Running
the example.
