Jim -

The reason I was getting the "Provider not found in root/cimv2" error was because I changed from cimv2.12 to cim2.14. The sblim-gather package requires CIM Schema Version 2.7 or higher so I just applied 2.14 from DMTF (BTW, this is confusing - is it 2.8 or 2.14?) You asked about what metrics are available and I saw (from my recollection) what the IBM paper advertized _http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-cim/2006-12/msg00034.html_ (see the attachment towards the bottom of the posting).

BTW, there is some funnyness with installing the sblim-cmpi-base and the sblim-gather packages. When I initially tried to install the newer base package (from sourceforge) I could not complete the postinstall because there was no CIM_Base in root/cimv2. I installed the old version of the base package (from SLES) and then uninstalled it. Only after that little dance was I able to use the newer packages. I have not investigated this further, but I can if it makes sense at this point - or I can start looking at indication stuff.

Jim, please post the links for the latest yawn and schema stuff when you get the chance.

Thanks, Luke
