Subject: FW: CMDB Spec
Hello All,
This is a DIRECT conflict with what we've positioned DCML for – and sadly seems to have been pushed at the IBM, HP, Fujitsu and BMC levels – and WILL cause conflict. It may make sense to get a clearer understanding from BMC. It just goes to show that when we created DCML in 2003, HP and IBM said there was NO NEED to standardize interdependencies and configurations for IT environments, and hence no need for DCML – now all of a sudden, standardized configurations DO make sense – did some of the DCML information on standardizing configurations filter into the wrong hands? This has been the mantra of DCML from DAY ONE. Unlike the CIM vs. DCML or the SDM vs. DCML conflicts, this one will be much more difficult to explain at the industry levels. We need to converge these efforts into a joint one in the manner we've been espousing with DCML/ITIL/etc. for a LONG time. I'm putting out a call to Tom Bishop to understand what his thoughts are immediately on this – and readying for the questions about “DCML vs. IBM/HP/FUJITSU/BMC CMDB consortium spec” ASAP…
Regards,

Darrel,
We knew this was coming, and BMC talked to Eugene and others last week or week before, but I'm curious as to how you think this might impact DCML.
