1 Scope Storage Management Technical Specification, Part 2 Common Architecture, 1.8.0 Rev 4 defines the core architecture and protocols in SMI-S. The components of SMI-S architecture include: • Transport - communicating management information between constituents of the management system • Health and fault management - detecting failures through monitoring the state of storage components • General information about the object model • Names - how SMI-S uses names to allow applications to correlate across SMI-S and to other standards • Standard messages - how exceptions are presented to client applications • Service discovery - techniques clients use to discover SMI-S services • Installation and upgrade - recommendations for implementations • Compliance - requirement for compliance to the standard
