All,
Sorry for rejoining the debate in its later
stages. Too many quarterly driven deliverables :o)
I think I have made the comment in the past
that we sometimes cause confusion by using a term that is widely used in
industry more specifically or differently than within an OGSA specific
context. One of these is Resource Management. This is very widely
used within the context of performance management and the OGSA definition may
cause confusion. Now the definition is not too bad in and of itself in
that the OGSA definition is actually broader. However its use, for
example in the definition of CIM could be very confusing to some. CIM is
an object oriented model for supporting Systems Management, and not Resource
Management in the traditional sense. Clearly it models a sub-set of
what OGSA considers Resources, and in an OGSA sense may ease the management of
what OGSA defines as resources, but if you ask the folks doing CIM they would
not I think indicate that their model is for resource management per se. I
think we must make this plain in the OGSA Glossary.
