Summary:
The Naming Convention specifyies that it reuses the DMTF CIM naming convention which is based on so-called "weak" associations. However in the CIM specification a weak association results in the propagation of the key properties to the dependent class. In the AMSM specification this is not the case. For a association link from class A to class B the AMSM specification states that the global name of an instance B is constructed by concatenating the global name of an instance of A with the key values of B. However the AMSM specification does not specify the syntax for the construction of the global names. Further it should provide an example.

Disposition: Resolved — AMSM 1.0
-
Disposition Summary:
Remove any reference to DMTF CIM in section 7.1.2.1. Add an example. Specify more clearly how the global name have to be built.
State that the value of a key attribute shall be unique for all the instance of a class.
Add the class name and the attribute name in the global name in order to avoid the cases where classes have a key relation with themselves and another key relation with another class. These cases lead to mistake because key names are unique per class and not for the whole model. -
