SMI-S provides for asynchronous notification of events that indicate changes in the CIM server
or the managed elements controlled by the CIM server. CIM Indications are the mechanism for
delivery of such events. A CIM client must subscribe to indications that it wants to receive the
event notifications from the CIM server. For detailed information regarding Indications, refer
to SMI-S at: http://www.snia.org.
The 3PAR InForm CIM Server currently supports indication subscriptions for changes in the
operational status of fibre channel ports. Refer to the 3PAR CIM API Programming Reference
for complete information.
