*'''[[Desktop Management Interface]]''' ('''DMI''') - DMI was the first desktop management standard. Due to the rapid advancement of DMTF technologies, such as CIM, the DMTF defined an "end of life" process for DMI, which ended March 31, 2005.
*'''[[Desktop and mobile Architecture for System Hardware]]''' ('''DASH''') - a management standard based on DMTF Web Services for Management (WS-Management), for desktop and mobile client systems.
*'''[http://www.dmtf.org/initiatives/vman_initiative/ Virtualization Management Initiative]''' ('''VMAN''') – a management standard based on DMTF’s CIM that helps IT managers: Deploy virtual computer systems,Discover/inventory virtual computer systems, Manage lifecycle of virtual computer systems, Create/modify/delete virtual resources and Monitor virtual systems for health and performance
Within the VMAN initiative, there are several specifications and profiles:
*'''[http://www.dmtf.org/standards/published_documents/DSP0243_1.0.0.pdf Open Virtualization Format]''' ('''OVF''') - Proposed standard for saving [[virtual machine]] images to disk. ▼
*'''[http://www.dmtf.org/standards/published_documents/DSP1042.pdf/ DSP1042]''' - System Virtualization Profile
*'''[http://www.dmtf.org/standards/published_documents/DSP1057.pdf/ DSP1057]''' - Virtual System Profile
*'''[http://www.dmtf.org/standards/published_documents/DSP1059.pdf/ DSP1059]''' - Generic Device Resource Virtualization Profile
*'''[http://www.dmtf.org/standards/published_documents/DSP1041.pdf/ DSP1041]''' - Resource Allocation Profile
*'''[http://www.dmtf.org/standards/published_documents/DSP1043.pdf/ DSP1043]''' - Allocation Capabilities Profile
CIM related standards are also developed outside of the DMTF. Some examples are:
Line 27 ⟶ 38:
*'''[http://wbemservices.sourceforge.net/ WBEM Services]''' - Open source project providing a CIM Object Manager written in Java
*'''[http://openwbem.sourceforge.net/ OpenWBEM]''' - Open source project providing another CIM Object Manager written in C++
▲*'''[http://www.dmtf.org/standards/published_documents/DSP0243_1.0.0.pdf Open Virtualization Format]''' ('''OVF''') - Proposed standard for saving [[virtual machine]] images to disk.
