OS management Network classes

The classes described in this section are implemented by the z/OS Communication Server. For details on these CIM classes, refer to z/OS Communications Server: IP Configuration Guide.

The providers are installed in the /usr/lpp/tcpip/lib hierarchical file system directory and linked to the CIM server’s provider directory.

The z/OS CS CIM class definition and provider registration files are installed in the /usr/lpp/tcpip/mof hierarchical file system directory and are already integrated into the CIM server.

Figure 12 illustrates the relationship between the IBM® extension classes, and the CIM Network classes that they extend. The packages, in which the classes are defined in the CIM Schema, are indicated in parenthesis. The DMTF website provides a detailed description of the CIM BaseBoard classes. The z/OS-specific classes are described in detail in the following topics.
