The Open Virtualization Format (OVF) Specification describes an open, secure, efficient and extensible format for the packaging and distribution of software to be run in virtual systems. The OVF package enables the authoring of portable virtual systems and the transport of virtual systems between virtualization platforms. This version of the specification (2.1) is intended to allow OVF 1.x tools to work with OVF 2.x descriptors in the following sense: Existing OVF 1.x tools should be able to parse OVF 2.x descriptors. Existing OVF 1.x tools should be able to give warnings/errors if dependencies to 2.x features are required for correct operation. If a conflict arises between the schema, text, or tables, the order of precedence to resolve the conflicts is schema; then text; then tables. Figures are for illustrative purposes only and are not a normative part of the standard. A table may constrain the text but it shall not conflict with it. The profile conforms to the cited CIM Schema classes where used. Any requirements contained in the cited CIM Schema classes shall be met. If a conflict arises the CIM Schema takes precedence. The profile conforms to the cited OVF XML Schema. It may constrain the schema but it shall not conflict with it. If a conflict arises the OVF XML Schema takes precedence.

ISO/IEC 19086-1:2016 seeks to establish a set of common cloud SLA building blocks (concepts, terms, definitions, contexts) that can be used to create cloud Service Level Agreements (SLAs). This document specifies a) an overview of cloud SLAs, b) identification of the relationship between the cloud service agreement and the cloud SLA, c) concepts that can be used to build cloud SLAs, and d) terms commonly used in cloud SLAs. ISO/IEC 19086-1:2016 is for the benefit and use of both cloud service providers and cloud service customers. The aim is to avoid confusion and facilitate a common understanding between cloud service providers and cloud service customers. Cloud service agreements and their associated cloud SLAs vary between cloud service providers, and in some cases different cloud service customers can negotiate different contract terms with the same cloud service provider for the same cloud service. This document aims to assist cloud service customers when they compare cloud services from different cloud service providers. ISO/IEC 19086-1:2016 does not provide a standard structure that can be used for a cloud SLA or a standard set of cloud service level objectives (SLOs) and cloud service qualitative objectives (SQOs) that will apply to all cloud services or all cloud service providers. This approach provides flexibility for cloud service providers in tailoring their cloud SLAs to the particular characteristics of the offered cloud services. ISO/IEC 19086-1:2016 does not supersede any legal requirement.

ISO/IEC 17963:2013 describes a Web services protocol based on SOAP for use in management‑specific domains. These domains include the management of entities such as PCs, servers, devices, Web services and other applications manageable entities. Services can expose only a WS-Management interface or compose the WS-Management service interface with some of the many other Web service specifications. A crucial application for these services is in the area of systems management. To promote interoperability between management applications and managed resources, ISO/IEC PAS 17963:2012 identifies a core set of Web service specifications and usage requirements that expose a common set of operations central to all systems management. This includes the ability to do the following: a) get, put (update), create, and delete individual resource instances, such as settings and dynamic values; b) enumerate the contents of containers and collections, such as large tables and logs; c) subscribe to events emitted by managed resources; d) execute specific management methods with strongly typed input and output parameters. In each of these areas of scope, ISO/IEC 17963:2013 defines minimal implementation requirements for conformant Web service implementations. An implementation is free to extend beyond this set of operations, and to choose not to support one or more of the preceding areas of functionality if that functionality is not appropriate to the target device or system. ISO/IEC 17963:2013 intends to meet the following requirements: a) constrain Web services protocols and formats so that Web services can be implemented with a small footprint in both hardware and software management services; b) define minimum requirements for compliance without constraining richer implementations; c) ensure backward compatibility and interoperability with WS-Management version 1.0; d) ensure composability with other Web services specifications.

The concept of "type" is fundamental to ODP systems; the interaction model of ODP-RM involves strongly-typed interactions. This Recommendation | International Standard: ? defines a framework for describing types of interest in ODP systems by determining what entities need to be typed and what needs to be said about the identified types. The primary focus of this work is the computational interface type system; ? identifies and characterizes type languages sufficient to describe the types identified above in an informative annex; ? provides enterprise, information, and computational specifications of a generic type repository function within the type description framework which can be specialized to select a specific type system or type notation. The type repository function provides: ? storage and retrieval of type descriptions; ? management of type descriptions; ? management of the relationship between types including matching of types; ? naming of types (in a manner consistent with ODP Naming Framework); ? interworking and federation of different type repositories. This Recommendation | International Standard provides a standard method of accessing type descriptions used within open distributed processing systems, where the type descriptions can be in various concrete syntaxes and type languages used in these open distributed processing systems. This Recommendation | International Standard also facilitates the dynamic matching of types for interactions, binding and trading purposes.

This Recommendation | International Standard is based on the framework of abstractions and concepts developed in the Reference Model for Open Distributed Processing (ITU-T Rec. X.902 | ISO/IEC 10746-2 and ITU-T Rec. X.903 | ISO/IEC 10746-3). This Recommendation | International Standard defines how interactions between computational objects in a computational specification of a system relate to protocol support for those interactions in an engineering specification of that system. In particular it: ? defines a General Interworking Framework (GIF); ? within the GIF, defines a set of facilities each comprising a set of functionally-related service primitives as abstract definitions of the interactions of basic engineering objects and channel objects; ? defines the parameters of the service primitives of the GIF; ? defines the permitted sequence of the service primitives by means of state tables; ? specifies, in annexes, the mapping of the GIF service primitives and their parameters to the messages and fields of particular protocols. As specified in this Recommendation | International Standard, the GIF defines protocol support for a pragmatic subset of the possible computational interactions defined in ITU-T Rec. X.903 | ISO/IEC 10746-3. It is also restricted in the features of the protocol support and the supported transparencies. The GIF, as specified here, defines: ? support for computational operations, but not for streams; ? support using stub, binder and protocol objects hierarchically, such that any interaction at the interworking reference point of the supporting protocol object supports liaisons of one of those objects or of the basic engineering object, and any interaction to support those liaisons is passed via that interworking reference point; and ? interactions at a single interworking reference point, from the perspective of one side; interceptors are not explicitly considered; NOTE 1 ? It is intended that the GIF could be extended, in a future amendment, to support streams and flows. The present specification is restricted to areas that are technically stable. The GIF supports at least some forms of: ? access transparency; and ? location transparency. The GIF as specified here also supports a limited equivalent of relocation transparency. Other transparencies are not addressed in this present specification. NOTE 2 ? It is intended that the GIF could be extended, in future amendments, to support additional transparencies. The GIF does not explicitly model Quality of Service requirements. The application of security-related issues to the GIF are not included in the current text and are for further study. The set of mappings to particular protocols specified in annexes to this Recommendation | International Standard is not exhaustive. The GIF could be mapped to other protocols. NOTE 3 ? In particular, a mapping to the DCOM protocol family would be a candidate for an additional annex.

It provides a general framework for the naming of entities of interest in ODP systems, which includes naming in the infrastructure of an ODP system, naming in the applications built on the infrastructure, and naming in the enterprise the system serves.

Interface references are crucial to interworking between ODP systems and federation of groups of ODP systems. An interface reference embodies the information needed to establish bindings, including binding to objects at nodes that support several different communication protocols and binding to objects in different management domains. An interface reference further embodies the information required for the engineering mechanism to maintain bindings between computational objects in the presence of distribution transparencies such as migration transparency. They are the foundation of ODP location and relocation transparency. This Recommendation | International Standard includes: · a framework for binding interfaces and a generic binding protocol (for both stream and operational interfaces); · a specification of the generic information structure of interface references (for both stream and operational interfaces); · representation(s) for interface references when transferred using standardized protocols; · identification of procedures for the management and transfer of interface references with respect to individual transparencies; · identification of node management interfaces related to binding and federation which create or transform interface references; · identification of requirements for quality of service information and for invocation of QoS or related measurement procedures. This Recommendation | International Standard provides an engineering description of the functionality needed to support the computational binding of objects in ODP systems. Security and support for group communication are important issues, but not within the scope of this Recommendation | International Standard. 1.2 Field of Application This Recommendation | International Standard enables interworking between ODP systems.

The scope of this Recommendation | International Standard is: ? an enterprise specification for the trading function; ? an information specification for the trading function; ? a computational specification for traders (i.e. objects providing the trading function); ? conformance requirements in terms of conformance points. It is not a goal of this Recommendation | International Standard to state how the trading function should be realized. Therefore this Recommendation | International Standard does not include an engineering specification. The field of application for this Recommendation | Intenational Standard is any ODP system in which it is required to introduce and discover services incrementally, dynamically and openly.

This Specification describes how the ODP Trading Function can be realised using information entries and support mechanisms of the OSI Directory. This Specification is to be used in conjunction with the ODP Trading Function Standard (ITU-T Rec. X.950 | ISO/IEC 13235-1). If there are any discrepancies between the prescriptive statements in ITU-T Rec. X.950 | ISO/IEC 13235-1 and those in this Specification, the prescriptive statements in ITU-T Rec. X.950 | ISO/IEC 13235-1 take precedence. The scope of this Specification is: ? standardised templates for Trading Function information objects in the DIT; ? descriptions of mapping of Trading Function operations to appropriate Directory operations; ? description of use of other Directory features to provide the support mechanisms for implementing the ODP Trading Function. This Specification does not prescribe that a trader must be engineered by using OSI Directory. But if OSI Directory is used, this Specification defines standardised templates for information entries (e.g. service offer and link information objects) in the Directory DIT. This Specification does not put any restrictions on where these entries are placed in the Directory DIT. That is, this Specification does not standardise any structure rules. This Specification does describe a mechanism to provide the Trading Function using OSI Directory. The field of application of this Specification is for the construction of the ODP Trading Function using the OSI Directory, when required.
