Deploying and Managing CIM Extensions184
For example, to create a default login for Windows with a user ID of “myname” and a password of
“password” you would create the following file:
%JBOSS4_DIST%\Extensions\Windows\cxws.default.login
The cxws.default.login file would contain the following:
-credentials myname:password
The CIM Extensions Management Tool
CIM extensions can be remotely managed through a graphical user interface called the CIM
Extensions Management Tool.
Each host being managed must be running a supported SSH daemon. See ”About SSH” on
page 182 for more information.
You must copy the CIM extensions to the management server before you can use the CIM
Extensions Management Tool. See ”Copying the CIM Extensions to the Management Server” on
page 182 for more information.
The CIM Extensions Management Tool can manage CIM extensions on the following operating
systems:
• AIX
• HP-UX

• Solaris
• Tru64
• Windows
