UMA Generalized Command Interface

An additional MLI capability is currently being prototyped to assist in remote administration of UMA-instrumented platforms by creating and administering remotely available services. This capability, called the "UMA Generalized Command Interface" or UMA-CCI, extends the available message classes with the class "GCI". UMA-GCI currently has the following subclasses defined:

INIT

Initialize all GCI variables and build GCIService array

LIST

Return GCIService structure with data_err_size set

GETDATA

Returns public GCIService array

ATTRIBUTES(register)

Sets a GCIService available for use (administrative only)

EXEC

Executes an available GCIService

GETSTATUS

Check execution status of GCIService

GETERROR

Retrieve error output of GCIService

ATTRIBUTES(remove)

Sets a GCIService unavailable for use (administrative only)

ATTRIBUTES(hide)

Hides a GCIService from other users (administrative only)

SAVE

Save the GCIService array (administrative only)

END

Free GCIService array
