Intellectual Property Notices Note Well: All statements related to the activities of the OGF and addressed to the OGF are subject to all provisions of Appendix B of GFD-C.1, which grants to the OGF and its participants certain licenses and rights in such statements. Such statements include verbal statements in OGF meetings, as well as written and electronic communications made at any time or place, which are addressed to: the OGF plenary session, any OGF working group or portion thereof, the OGF Board of Directors, the GFSG, or any member thereof on behalf of the OGF, the ADCOM, or any member thereof on behalf of the ADCOM, any OGF mailing list, including any group list, or any other list functioning under OGF auspices, the OGF Editor or the document authoring and review process Statements made outside of a OGF meeting, mailing list or other function, that are clearly not intended to be input to an OGF activity, group or function, are not subject to these provisions. Excerpt from Appendix B of GFD-C.1: Where the OGF knows of rights, or claimed rights, the OGF secretariat shall attempt to obtain from the claimant of such rights, a written assurance that upon approval by the GFSG of the relevant OGF document(s), any party will be able to obtain the right to implement, use and distribute the technology or works when implementing, using or distributing technology based upon the specific specification(s) under openly specified, reasonable, non- discriminatory terms. The working group or research group proposing the use of the technology with respect to which the proprietary rights are claimed may assist the OGF secretariat in this effort. The results of this procedure shall not affect advancement of document, except that the GFSG may defer approval where a delay may facilitate the obtaining of such assurances. The results will, however, be recorded by the OGF Secretariat, and made available. The GFSG may also direct that a summary of the results be included in any GFD published containing the specification. OGF Intellectual Property Policies are adapted from the IETF Intellectual Property Policies that support the Internet Standards Process.

4. © 2007 Open Grid Forum Current Work Items (1) The DMTF published DSP0225 URI Format for Published XML Schema to address previous OGF requirements for (1) namespaces to identify XML schemas for properties produced from a particular version of a CIM model and (2) the XML schemas themselves. This allows OGF specifications (and other specifications) to refer to the XML schemas for properties without embedding the schemas in the body of the specifications and XML schemas to be consistent across multiple specifications. OGF, specifically the Data Access and Integration Services (DAIS) workgroup (the originators of the requirement that generated this document) and the OGSA workgroup should review DSP0225 to determine that it meets their needs and where it doesnt provide the appropriate input to DMTF. http://www.dmtf.org/standards/published_documents/DSP0225. pdf Target: January 2007 COMPLETED http://www.dmtf.org/standards/published_documents/DSP0225. pdf

5. © 2007 Open Grid Forum Current Work Items (2) DMTF published DSP0230 WS-CIM Mapping Specification covers how CIM is mapped to WSDL. This addressed a previous requirement from OGF. Additionally, there are two mapping specifications that also address WSDL requirements, DSP0227 WS-Management – CIM Binding and the WSDM/CIM mapping which is still in workgroup development/review. OGF, specifically the OGSA workgroup, should review DSP0230 and DSP0227 to determine whether it meets their needs, and if not, input to DMTF what is missing or wont work. Target: January 2007 http://www.dmtf.org/standards/published_documents/DSP0230. pdf http://www.dmtf.org/standards/published_documents/DSP0227. pdf COMPLETED http://www.dmtf.org/standards/published_documents/DSP0230. pdf http://www.dmtf.org/standards/published_documents/DSP0227. pdf

6. © 2007 Open Grid Forum Current Work Items (3) OGSA workgroup should review the WSDM/CIM mapping specification when it is published as a Preliminary Specification (publicly available) to determine whether it meets their needs, and if not, input to DMTF what is missing or wont work. The working document (for those who can access it) can be found at http://www.dmtf.org/apps/org/workgroup/wsdm/ (look under documents category on this page). Target: 2007 COMPLETED http://www.dmtf.org/apps/org/workgroup/wsdm/

7. © 2007 Open Grid Forum Current Work Items Extrapolate from the OGSA-BES work and submit to DMTF a general container model (BES is a specific instantiation). Target: 1Q2007 COMPLETED and PUBLISHED (OGF document #108 and CIMv2.17) Educate DMTF members / developers on OGF use of the Common Information Model. Use the yearly DMTF Management Developers Conference. Target: December 2006 Done in 2006; re-target for Dec 2008 conference

8. © 2007 Open Grid Forum Current Work Items Identify the base set of grid resources that need to be advertised that applications can consume (via requirements) and update the CIM as needed including how best to map/leverage information models. Anticipated output would be in form of an OGF Informational Document that extends/modifies DMTF CIM. Target: 2Q2007 Superceded by GLUE work….re-write to make GLUE that base set and work with DMTF to get into CIM as appropriate (e.g. new/modified DMTF classes, DMTF view classes) Identify and write profiles as needed that reflect grid resource needs for interoperable implementations. Target: throughout 2007 retain as on-going item

9. © 2007 Open Grid Forum Current Work Items Identify DMTF workgroup – OGF workgroup relationships that can result in best leveraging each others expertise. DMTF TC participants (to be identified), OGSA workgroup (Ellen Stokes and Hiro Kishimoto), and DMTF liaison (Tom Roney) lead with participation from OGF area directors, OGF workgroup chairs, and DMTF chairs as identified. Target: 1Q2007 and revisit at least twice a year because workgroups are created, deleted, and modified as needed. Identify OGF work that can enhance / leverage CIM schema Identify areas of CIM schema that do not address grid enablement Retain as on-going item Other activities to be defined after the initial identification of useful DMTF-OGF workgroup relationships. Target: 1Q or 2Q 2007 replace with very specific items

10. © 2007 Open Grid Forum Proposed Work Items Virtualization Use cases to feed DMTF work, e.g. portals, aggregated virtualized resources, existing grid-virt use case work, do current DMTF Sys Virt Profile and Virt Sys Profile cover the contextualization use case?, any server virt specific cases we can provide now, cloud computing use case Packaging (OVF/rPath) – next gen of OVF spec (post 1.0) Model harmonization Relationship between OGF ref model and DMTF CIM model: identify/remove overlap – can we profile CIM model for ref model? Are there classes, etc from ref model that need to be inserted into CIM? Incompatibilities? DMTF comment on ref model. Notes to OGF Use some form of existing grid-virt wg as process to get virtualization work items done
