In Fedora 12 and above These are guidelines for packaging CMPI plugins, used by the tog-pegasus or sblim-sfcb CIMOMs. Such plugins are called "CIM providers", and each uses the CMPI interface to the CIMOM.

  1. Make sure each provider Requires: cim server. This is a virtual provide that each CIMOM has. Template:Admon/warn
  2. All plugins are shared libraries, ending in .so. These are to be installed in the %{_libdir}/cmpi/ directory.
  3. Some of the providers may have hard-coded shared object names, which are dlopen()ed at runtime. rpmlint will throw warnings to move *.so files to a -devel package, but this would be incorrect for these packages. Such warnings may be ignored.
  4. All the .registration and .mof files go to %{_datadir}/%{name}
  5. Each provider should register in %postin and unregister in %preun to the cim server.
