7、ITU-T Rec. X.744.1 (03/2003) i ITU-T Recommendation X.744.1 CORBA-based TMN software management service Summary This Recommedation is part of a series of Recommendations that specify the CORBA interface requirements for communication between an Operations System (OS) and a Network Element (NE), betw
8、een an OS and a Mediation Device (MD), between an OS and a Q Adapter (QA), and between OSs in a Telecommunication Management Network (TMN). This Recommendation proposes a CORBA-based Software Management implementation based on ITU-T Rec. X.744. The intent of this Recommendation is to define a CORBA/
9、IDL model similar to that defined in ITU-T Rec. X.744 using CMISE. In this Recommendation, both fine-grained and coarse-grained (i.e., facade) interfaces are defined for the software management functions. This Recommendation is compliant with CORBA modelling standards from ITU-T Recs X.780, X.780.1,
10、 Q.816, Q.816.1 and M.3120. Source ITU-T Recommendation X.744.1 was prepared by ITU-T Study Group 4 (2001-2004) and approved under the WTSA Resolution 1 procedure on 29 March 2003. ii ITU-T Rec. X.744.1 (03/2003) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations speciali
11、zed agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a wo
12、rldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in
13、 WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication admi
14、nistration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure e.g. interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provi
15、sions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention t
16、o the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outsi
17、de of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementors are cautioned that this may not represent the lat
18、est information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database. ITU 2003 All rights reserved.

23、 module 70 ITU-T Rec. X.744.1 (03/2003) 1 ITU-T Recommendation X.744.1 CORBA-based TMN software management service 1 Scope This Recommendation is part of a series of Recommendations that specify the CORBA interface requirements for communication between an Operations System (OS) and a Network Elemen
24、t (NE), between an OS and a Mediation Device (MD), between an OS and a Q Adapter (QA), and between OSs in a Telecommunication Management Network (TMN) 1. The Software Management Function includes management of a system for delivery of software and also management of software within a system. There a
25、re two aspects of software that need to be considered separately. These two aspects can be described as the “dormant“ view and the “active“ view of software. The dormant view of software is related to the data that is stored in a managed system and the way in which it is delivered and installed. In
26、general, the data is stored information, such as data files and tables, but may also be files containing executable code. The scope of this Recommendation includes the dormant view of software. The active view of software is related to the management of resources that utilize the software. There is
27、no real difference between this view and the normal view of management of resources. The scope of this Recommendation does not include the active view of software. However, the relationship between managed objects representing resources that utilize software, and the managed objects representing the
28、 software that they are using (i.e., dormant view of software) is within the scope of this Recommendation. The scope of this Recommendation includes: initiation of transfer of software; post transfer control of software; software activation (includes version update and patching); software de-activat
29、ion; software reversion change; software validation; software enquiry; software backup; software restore. The scope of this Recommendation does not include: transfer mechanism of software; physical storage of software (mapping of software to physical file store, such as to a floppy disk, hard disk,
30、etc.); formatting of software; naming of software products; sequencing of software management commands; software monitoring; management of processes running in a system. 2 ITU-T Rec. X.744.1 (03/2003) In this Recommendation, both fine-grained and coarse-grained (i.e., facade) interfaces are defined
31、for the software management functions. The fine-grained and facade interfaces are providing the same support for software management. Both can be used with fine-grained and coarse-grained managed objects (e.g., those defined in ITU-T Rec. Rec. M.3120 2). Current telecommunications networks are popul
32、ated by a large and increasing number of OSs and network elements supplied by different vendors. Both the number and variety of networks and services have grown, creating a diversity of management needs. This growth has resulted in the proliferation of unique communication interfaces between OSs and
33、 network elements. The telecommunications industry stands to benefit from the standardization of these interfaces, designed to achieve interoperability between a broad range of OSs and network elements/Q Adapters, using Mediation Devices where appropriate, and between OSs. The primary purpose of thi
34、s Recommendation is to provide a set of application messages and associated support objects for the support of communication across CORBA interfaces. Because of the desirability of providing common TMN solutions, these messages and support objects are expected to be applicable to other TMN or TMN-re
35、lated interfaces. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions, which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Recommendation.
