Issues Descriptions

Unclear on ProxyAgentController

  • Key: TMN-5
  • Legacy Issue Number: 3597
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Anonymous
  • Summary:

    We are looking on the implementation of the JIDM interfaces. The class
    ProxyAgentController is unclear to us. How we can make decision on
    Graceful destruction looking on the return value of the
    destruction_is_allowed operation of ProxyAgentController? What is meant
    by the 'terms and conditions' addressed by the Criteria return value of
    that operation. It will be a greate help if you could clear our doubts.

Issue with the "Basic Concepts" section

  • Key: TMN-3
  • Legacy Issue Number: 4249
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Anonymous
  • Summary:

    The "Basic Concepts" section contains an explanation of terms to be used throughout the document. I find that the definition of some terms and their later use in the same Basic Concepts section appear, at first glance anyway, to be ambiguous or contrary to each other thus throwing me into a terrible state of confusion!

    Namely, 8th paragraph (included below) does not seem to enable me to understand the 12th paragraph that I also include. Namely, the problem is the words in brackets do not seem correct in the context.

    1) Managed domains are sometimes referred to as "agents" and "managed object domains." while manager domains are sometimes referred to as "manager applications" or simply "managers."

    2) When a manager (agent) gains access to a managed object domain (manager domain), it is said . . . .

    If it is a case that one can read the sentence using the bracketed words as the alternative that is ok, i.e.,

    form 1) When a manager gains access to a managed object domain, it is said . . . .

    form 2) When an agent gains access to a manager domain, it is said . . . .

    But, in my view it is not a consistent use of the brackets as earlier in the same paragraph bracketed words are used as an alternative name for something they follow (an equivalent entity) (see paragraph 6 same section) as opposed to a different entity.

Issue: create and delete are always confirmed

  • Key: TMN-1
  • Legacy Issue Number: 2650
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Anonymous
  • Summary:

    Summary: This is an issue for the "CORBA/TMN Interworking RTF":

    In the OSI Facilities, the specification potentially allows to have
    unconfirmed ManagedObject creations/deletions, whereas in Q3/OSI they
    are always confirmed. The OSI Facilities should thus explicitly say that
    for creation and deletion operations, LinkedReplyHandler and
    EndOfRepliesHandler cannot be null object references, otherwise an
    exception should be raised (e.g. BAD_PARAM).
