* OpenLMI                                                                     *
*******************************************************************************

The OpenLMI project provides a common infrastructure for the management of Linux
systems. Capabilities include configuration, management and monitoring of
hardware, operating systems, and system services. OpenLMI includes a set of
services that can be accessed both locally and remotely, multiple language
bindings, standard APIs, and standard scripting interfaces. 


*******************************************************************************
* openlmi-providers                                                           *
*******************************************************************************

openlmi-providers is set of (usually) small providers (agents) that will provide
given functionality on host system.

Following providers are part of this sub-project:

* Fan
    Fan provider implements interface for hardware monitoring of fans
    in the system. It uses lm_sensors library so it's linux specific.

    There are three interfaces provided according to CIM model:
        * Linux_Fan
            - Provides instance for every fan founded by lm_sensors with basic
              information.
        * Linux_FanSensor
            - Associated sensor for each instance of Linux_Fan.
            - Value of fan speed can be obtained from property CurrentReading.
        * Linux_FanAssociatedSensor
            - Provides association of instances of above 2 providers.

* Power
    Power management provider allows to monitor and change power state of the
    computer system.

    Support commands:
        - halt, reboot, suspend, hibernate

* Service
    Provider that allows manipulation with system services.

    Supported commands:
        - status
        - start, stop, restart
        - enable, disable

* Software
    Allows to install, remove, list and update packages.
    Requires python 2.6+ and yum.

*******************************************************************************
* Build Dependencies                                                          *
*******************************************************************************
For all providers:
    - konkretcmpi-devel
    - sblim-cmpi-devel

Provider specific dependencies:
* Fan
    - lm_sensors - installed and configured
    - lm_sensors-libs
    - lm_sensors-devel
* Power
    - glib2-devel
    - upower-devel or pm-utils
    - shutdown and reboot commands in $PATH (usually provided by
      systemd or upstart or SysVinit)
* Service
    - chkconfig
    - systemd or upstart or SysVinit


*******************************************************************************
* Compilation and installation                                                *
*******************************************************************************

$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr
$ make
# make install
# make register-Fan
# make register-PowerManagement
# make register-Service

You can disable specific provider by adding -DWITH-<PROVIDER>=0 to cmake line.
