💖 sfcbstage — the girlies' guide to staging your MOFs 💖

okay so bestie, this is the manual page for sfcbstage(1) from the General Commands Manual, and I'm gonna hold your hand through literally every single line of it. no gatekeeping, no cap. 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

sfcbstage — a script that copies provider MOF and registration files into the Small-Footprint CIM Broker (sfcb) staging area. it's giving "moving day but for classes" 📦✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

sfcbstage [options] [mof...]

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

so what does sfcbstage actually do? it copies provider mof and registration files over to the sfcb staging area. that's it, that's the job. 💖

you use this to add classes to sfcb offline — like, while it's not looking 👀

⚠️ okay but listen: the class repository must be rebuilt with sfcbrepos, and the sfcb CIMOM must be restarted before your changes take effect. no skipping steps, bestie, the vibes will not hold otherwise. 🔥

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • -n namespace — the namespace for which the class MOFs are to be registered. the default is root/cimv2 💜
  • -s stagingdir — path to the sfcb staging area that contains the class MOFs and registration files. default is /var/lib/sfcb/stage 🦋
  • -r registrationfile — path to the provider registration file. 📝
  • -h — displays usage information and then exits. the classic "help me help you" move 🙈
  • mof — path(s) to one or more class MOF files containing the CIM class definitions for the class(es) implemented by the provider. yes, plural, you can pass more than one, go off 👑

🌈 ENVIRONMENT 🌈

  • DESTDIR — if this is set, its value gets prepended to the registration directory names. lowkey iconic when you wanna stash the repository somewhere else entirely, i.e. when cross-compiling providers. 🧚
