Yes. I have installed Pegasus, libcmpiutil and libvirt-cim. But I am
not sure how to use them. Could you please share if you have any
detailed doc? One line answer is not really helping me out.
I don't know your level of CIM expertise. Libvirt-cim is a set of CIM
providers, as with any providers, you can look at the schema
definitions to figure out the interface and how to use them. We don't
have any more documentation. I pointed you to cimtest to give you an
idea of flow of libvirt-cim. It is actually not needed. We use it as
automated test.
You can download the source from
http://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt-cim.git. All schemas are defined
under 'schema' directory.

Hi Sharad,
Thanks for the information.
We need to use CIM-Schemas, defined by DMTF, to create and work on
VMs. Could you please share the following,
- What are all soft-wares do I need to install to start working on
this. Would be good if you can provide step step procedure for this.
It is really simple. All you need are libcmpiutil and libvirt-cim.
Are you using pegasus cimom?
- What are all the hyper-visors are supported by libvirt-cim?
Deos it support ESX hypervisor?
KVM, Xen and linux containers.
- Do we have any detailed documentation/ wiki for this in addition
to http://www.libvirt.org/CIM/
Best Regards
Raghu

Hi All,
I am very new to libvirt-cim. We wanted to create a VM using
libvirt-cim using CIM schemas. Could you please detail the steps
involved in this task, procedures, softwares to be installed and run,
docs, wikipages, blogs..etc.
Hi Raghu,
Welcome to libvirt-cim.
Best way to learn how to use libvirt-cim is to create a VM using
cimtest. You can download cimtest snapshot from
http://libvirt.org/git/?p=cimtest.git;a=tree. Go to cimtest directory
and run the following command -
CIM_NS=root/virt CIM_USER=<<YOUR USERNAME>> CIM_PASS=<<YOUR PASSWORD>>
./runtests libvirt-cim -i localhost -c -d -v KVM -g ComputerSystem -t
06_paused_active_suspend.py
Replace <<YOUR USERNAME>> and <<YOUR PASSWORD>> with your username and
password.
You may have some missing packages that cimtest needs. Once you have
them installed, you can follow the test to learn how VMs are created.
There are lot more tests under cimtest which do more advanced things
like adding disk/memeory/CPU to existing VM.
Feel free to post on the mailing list if you have any more questions.
