Uli - Thanks for the update.
Here's what I'd like to see: 1. All code changes are backward compatible - so, for instance, a user can still run hpitop or hpitree without any options - and still get the default domain as before. Also, a user should not be required to configure openhpiclient.conf in order to use the client programs. In other words, we do not want to make the OpenHPI clients harder to use. 2. All client changes are tested, and checked-in by Monday, June 14. Please note that one of the release criteria for OpenHPI is that all of the OpenHPI clients must work. So we strongly depend on the clients as part of releasing OpenHPI. I'll be happy to review the patches you create. Please post them to the OpenHPI developer list as soon as you can. Once they are reviewed, please check them into the top-of-trunk. On hpiinv - please post a defect or enhancement request on the issue you are seeing with the -v option. We can always look into this issue at a future release so that you are not getting sidetracked while you make your intended edits to the client programs. Note that there are 16 OpenHPI client programs - so if you feel this is too much change for 2.15.0 in the short amount of time that is left - you can always do these changes in a later release. Please keep this in mind if the work proves to be more time consuming than you originally estimated. --michael Regards, Michael Bishop Enterprise Servers and Storage (ISB Linux/Telco) Hewlett-Packard Company 3404 E.
