RE: [wsdm] Is componentAddress required?

[Thomas Studwell <studwell@us.ibm.com>]

Ah yes, I see it now, thanks for the clarification :-)

I disagree with the assertion. We are talking about software that is accessible as a web service, that is, it offers itself as a web service with a WSDM manageability interface right? If so, then I assert that the web service will know, if not normally it should be required as a ManageableResource, its address.

:) "the event reporter may not know it or be able to represent such address in XML". keyboard glitches :)

e.g. I'm the component and I report the event, but I don't know how I'm addressabe or what are the variants of those addresses when represented in XML. That all is external.

Igor,
I do not understand your statement:
IMO, component address itself should be an optional element. Even if a component is addressable the event reported may not know ir be able to represent such address in XML.

Would you please rephrase?

Thank you,
