Task - Apply a Change Request
The Change Request tool can retrieve class definitions for the CIM
schemas published by the DMTF from its local repository. The Change
Request tool also allows a user to modify the local repository. On
occasion, one change request requires the local repository to be
previously modified by another change request. For example, suppose a
user wants to create CIM_ServiceSublcassA as a sublcass of CIM_Service
and then also wants to create a CIM_ServiceSubclassAB as a subclass of
CIM_ServiceSubclassA. To do so, the user must
- Create a change request to create new class CIM_ServiceSubclassA
- Add CIM_ServiceSubclassA to the local repository
- Create a change request to create a new class
CIM_ServiceSubclassAB
Step 3 could not be performed without Step 2 because the Change Request
tool would not be able to find the parent class, CIM_ServiceSubclassA,
for CIM_ServiceSubclassAB.
To add CIM_ServiceSubclass A to the local repository,
- Select Window / Other / WBEM Workshop / CIM Browser from the
top-level menu bar and click on OK to show the CIM Browser folder tab
- Click on the ApplyCR icon (the circled icon)
- Navigate to the directory containing the Change Request XML file
that creates CIM_ServiceSubclassA and click on Open
