All example scripts are for lmishell. See it’s documentation on OpenLMI page.

We also assume that following script has been run to connecto to a CIMOM and initialize basic variables:

MEGABYTE = 1024*1024
connection = connect("localhost", "root", "opensesame")
root = connection.root.cimv2
storage_service = root.LMI_StorageConfigurationService.first_instance()
partitioning_service = root.LMI_DiskPartitionConfigurationService.first_instance()
