OpenLMI (abbreviated from Open Linux Management Infrastructure) provides a common management infrastructure for Linux systems. Available operations include configuration of various operating system parameters and services, hardware components configuration, and monitoring of system resources. Services provided by OpenLMI can be accessed both locally and remotely, using multiple programming languages and standardized APIs. Project's source code is distributed under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL) and Simplified BSD License. == Overview == OpenLMI distinguishes ''agents'', ''controllers'' and ''client applications'': * OpenLMI agents perform the actual operations; they are installed and run on managed Linux systems. * OpenLMI controllers manage the OpenLMI agents. * Client applications talk to the OpenLMI controllers through well-defined interfaces and language bindings, which are based on open industry standards for the management of remote systems. Thus, instead of delivering a complete management solution, OpenLMI provides low-level functions and APIs that can be used by, or integrated into, various management platforms, applications or configuration scripts. OpenLMI extends the already existing Linux infrastructure by providing management agents which also perform system configuration tasks, in addition to monitoring and reporting functions. By exporting those operations through standard-based interfaces, and by providing agents performing the actual operations, OpenLMI creates a management framework that various applications can use both for system configuration, and for monitoring resources and performance. Usage targets for OpenLMI include bare-metal production servers, on which it can perform initial configurations through a set of predefined "recipes".〔 , implemented agents primarily perform operations related to storage, networking and local user accounts. Plans exist to expand the variety of implemented agents, aiming at providing complete coverage of Linux management and configuration tasks.〔 The OpenLMI's source code is licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL) and Simplified BSD License (also known as the FreeBSD License).〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「OpenLMI」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
