1. Downloading

• Download SBLIM sfcb (sblim-sfcb) CIM server from the SBLIM website
  • sblim-sfcb-M.m.R.tar.bz2
• Untar the archive:
  • $ tar xjvf sblim-sfcb-M.m.R.tar.bz2
• The examples below are based on the installation of SBLIM sfcb in a local directory (Example: /home/toto/sfcb-build).

2. Configuring the source code

• In the SBLIM sfcb source directory, configure the source code:
  • $ ./configure --help : See a list of the available options
• To change the location of the build directory (local installation): --prefix=<PATH_TO_SFCB_BUILD_DIRECTORY>
• If you want to use a different CIM schema version, you MUST configure the source code by adding this variable definitions:
  • CIMSCHEMA_SOURCE="<URL_TO_CIM_SCHEMA_ZIP_ARCHIVE>" CIMSCHEMA_MOF=<TOP_LEVEL_MOF_FILE> CIMSCHEMA_SUBDIRS=true OPTIONS...

• To install SBLIM sfcb and CIM schema version 2.16 exprimental in the '/home/toto/sfcb-build' directory:
  • ./configure --prefix=/home/toto/sfcb-build CIMSCHEMA_SOURCE="http://www.dmtf.org/standards/cim/cim_schema_v216/cimv216Experimental-MOFs.zip" CIMSCHEMA_MOF=cimv216.mof CIMSCHEMA_SUBDIRS=true
  • ./configure --prefix=/home/toto/sfcb-build CIMSCHEMA_SOURCE="/home/toto/cimv216Experimental-MOFs.zip" CIMSCHEMA_MOF=cimv216.mof CIMSCHEMA_SUBDIRS=true
• You can get a working version of the CIM schema here (You may experience troubles when installing sfcb with the CIM schema from the DMTF): ftp://www.opendrim.org/pub/CIM

3. Compiling

• In the SBLIM sfcb source directory:
  • $ make

4. Installing

• In the SBLIM sfcb source directory:
  • $ make install
  • $ make postinstall

5. Running

• Add the path to the sfcb executable to your PATH variable and set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable:
  • $ export PATH=<PATH_TO_SFCB_BUILD_DIRECTORY>/bin:<PATH_TO_SFCB_BUILD_DIRECTORY>/sbin:$PATH
  • $ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/home/toto/sfcb-build/lib
• Or to your /etc/bashrc file.

  ...
  # PATH
  export PATH=/home/toto/sfcb-build/bin:/home/toto/sfcb-build/sbin:$PATH
  
  # Library PATH
  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/home/toto/sfcb-build/lib
  ...
  

• To start sfcb: $ sfcbd or $ sfcbd -d (Daemon mode)

6. OpenDRIM Common Library?

• $ autoreconf --install
• $ ./configure CIMSERVER=sfcb --prefix=<PATH_TO_SFCB_BUILD_DIRECTORY> CPPFLAGS='-I<PATH_TO_SFCB_SOURCE_DIRECTORY>'
• $ make
• $ make install or $ make install-strip (stripping makes the libraries smaller)

7. Setting up the CIM repository

• This step is required to be conformant to the Profile Registration Profile from the DMTF
• Install the Interop package:
  • $ autoreconf --install
  • $ ./configure CIMSERVER=sfcb --prefix=<PATH_TO_SFCB_BUILD_DIRECTORY>
  • $ make
  • $ make install or $ make install-strip (stripping makes the libraries smaller)
  • $ make postinstall (Note: this step restarts/starts SBLIM sfcb)

8. OpenDRIM Providers

• $ autoreconf --install
• $ ./configure CIMSERVER=sfcb --prefix=<PATH_TO_SFCB_BUILD_DIRECTORY>
• $ make
• $ make install or $ make install-strip (stripping makes the libraries smaller)
• $ make postinstall (Note: this step restarts/starts SBLIM sfcb)
