Opportunities for Alliance Partner Involvement
•
•
Greatest opportunity for involvement is where areas of interest and expert ice intersect.
Examples
•
Working needed schema changes into DMTF Schema
•
•
Working together on Profiles
•
•
•
•
PWG, SNIA, OGF
PUG & Profiles
Would like to see Alliance Partners take advantage of DSP4005 opportunity to notify us that they are
working on Profiles.
Plan on normatively referencing SMI-S profiles from SMASH & DASH Implementation Requirements
Specs.
Joint Releases of specification
•
OMG
•
•
TMF
•
•
CIM/SID Harmonization Work – joint specification release under investigation.
Work together to ensure specifications enable solutions
•
UEFI
•
•
Working with DMWG, SMWG, PMCI & Core to see BIOS Modeling, Registries and Access Methods Specified
TCG
•
July 17, 2015
DSP0219 is coming to the TC just now (ARCHCR00104), it is covered by the work register between DMTF and OMG,
and the plan is to take this (preliminary) version and also release it as a OMG spec, using the OMG fastpath process.
Working with DMWG to model TPMs

How to Work with the DMTF
The first step is to get a Work Register in place
Work Registers
• Describe the scope and benefit to the DMTF, alliance partner
organization, and the industry for forming the partnership
• Includes objectives of the partnership and the dates by when they will
be achieved
• Identify Liaison between DMTF and Alliance Partner
• Updated on a regular basis as objectives are completed
• Board has created a VP of Alliances and Alliance Committee
• Includes Academic Alliances
• Mark Carlson, Sun

How to Work with the DMTF
•
DMTF Originated Work
•
Feedback from the DMTF
• Work In Progress Release capability
•
•
Can release a Work in Progress with 2-3 weeks lead time to enable Alliance Partners access to
snapshot of our work, but may not reflect final specification/solution.
Published at http://www.dmtf.org/standards/wip/
• Schema builds can soon be done weekly
•
•
•
Putting a new build in place with automated CR verification and modification of the tree
Schema CR Template is available for Alliance partner use
• Working on making the verification tool available too!
Feedback into the DMTF
• Alliance Liaison
• Joint Member (companies that are members of both organizations).
• The DMTF Technology Adoption Policy
•
•
Intended for whole submissions, such as profiles or specifications
http://www.dmtf.org/about/policies/
• The DMTF Feedback Portal
•
•
•
Intended for comments to current specifications and schema changes
http://www.dmtf.org/standards/feedback/

Similar mechanisms would speed things along if you wish DMTF input
DMTF Confidential

How to Work with the DMTF
• Use your Alliance Liaison
• Let us know what you are working on and where you want to work more
closely
• Work with your Liaison
• CRs have Alliance Partner Section to help members understand reasoning
• CR Template available (and hopefully the tool as well)
• Joint Meetings
• APTS is one example, but need not be the only time for meetings/input.
• Needs to be held under DMTF IP/Copyright umbrella.
• Conference calls, Physical or Virtual Face To Face meetings
• Joint Release of Work
• CIM/SID – TMF investigating joint release of specification. DMTF Board
approved the concept.
• DSP0219 (Fastpath through OMG)
