Re: [Libvirt-cim] [PATCH 1 of 2] Enhance RegisteredProfile to support getInstance and gets static ID

One thing I forgot to ask about. Many of the profiles we were
advertising have been removed. Is this temporary, or is there a reason
to not advertise those?
Its temporary, as at the moment most of the Resource
Profiles that have
been listed are not available or currently in the process of being
defined by the DMTF. But as the Profiles become standard, we will update
the provider. As the approach is generic the effort will be only a new
struct in profiles.h
Also, I'm not so great at connecting the
non-obvious profiles with their providers, could you explain why the
System Virtualization Profile is now linked to HostSystem and not
VirtualSystemManagementService?
Instances of RegisteredProfile are connected via ECTP to the scoping
class instance of the corresponding Profile. This means: the scoping
class of the System Virtualization Profile is the CIM_System class, in
our case the class KVM/Xen_HostSystem. The class
VirtualSystemManagementService is part of the profile, but not the
scoping class.
