Generic CIM Operations
with WSMan::GenericOps
The
GenericOps
module implements some of the generic
operations specified in the WS-Management CIM bindings published by the DMTF.
Not all generic operations are
implemented. The Perl module is located at
Perl/lib/WSMan/GenericOps.pm
.
The
WSBasic
module discussed in
SOAP Message Construction with WSMan::WSBasic provides more primitive
intrinsic WS-Management operations. The
GenericOps
module requires the
WSMan::WSBasic
module.
Table 1
lists the methods the
GenericOps
class provides, which are discussed in more
detail below.
