>From BMC documentation: Class BMC.CORE:BMC_Application:
Class that stores information about standalone applications, applications deployed on servers (such as J2EE and SAP), and applications deployed on distributed systems (such as SAP). An application can be hosted by two different types of environments. The application can run on a physical or virtual system, or it can run on an application server or application system. Therefore, when modeling applications, relate an instance of the BMC_Application class to a hosting BMC_ComputerSystem (physical or virtual), BMC_ApplicationServer, or BMC_ApplicationInfrastructure instance. For example, if an application runs directly on top of an application server or application system such as an SAP environment, the application has only one relationship, a dependency on the application infrastructure hosting the application. This dependency is modeled by a BMC_Dependency relationship. When using the relationship, set the Name value to DEPLOYEDAPPLICATION. This class corresponds to the DMTF CIM_ApplicationSystem class. Class BMC.CORE:BMC_ApplicationSystem: Class that stores information about an application or a software system that supports a particular business function and that can be managed as an independent unit. This class cannot be instantiated. To decompose the system into its technical components, relate an instance of this class to its component BMC_SoftwareServer instance using the BMC_Dependency class. For example, a J2EE run-time environment would be represented by BMC_SoftwareServer. BMC_ApplicationSystem also represents the core class of the application system's submodel of the application runtime model. Its role in the system's submodel is to represent the root node of the containment hierarchy of the application elements (at runtime) as services, components, subsystems, and the main entry point to the navigation through and drill-down into the runtime model. It also serves to store run-time overview information (such as response time or system status), and to control the run time of the entire application (for example, start and stop). To capture the deployed, run-time aspects of long-lived applications, use BMC_SoftwareServer, BMC_Application, or BMC_ApplicationInfrastructure. This class corresponds to the DMTF class CIM_ ApplicationSystem. -- J 2010/10/1 Martinez, Marcelo A <marc...@cpchem.com>: > What is the difference between BMC.CORE:BMC_Application and > BMC.CORE:BMC_ApplicationSystem? > > I am looking for docs that specify the definition of each.
