<p class="MsoNormal">Everyone<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We have a new version of an abstract look at the OFMF to look at.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">After the meetings on Wednesday and Friday morning, we have:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<ol style="margin-top:0in" start="1" type="1">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Separated out some of the memory structures and resource information into a separate Redfish/Swordfish database.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Added a ‘Composability Layer’ on the left side of the first slide. The Composability Layer communicates to the OFMF and to the other Redfish/Swordfish database to gather and provide
information to the OFMF (fabrics and fabric connections) and to the other database for resource control and management.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">The Gen-Z and CXL Agents communicate to the OFMF and to the other database to gather information, as they are capable of working with the end-point resources.
<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">The resources are controlled by the Redfish/Swordfish database and the connections are controlled by the OFMF.<o:p></o:p></li></ol>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I think, it appears, that the Composability Manager, on the left, is the key part of what we were missing. In the end, we want the functionality that Gen-Z and CXL provide through their Agents, but we want separation of concerns.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please, feel free to edit and we’ll continue to meet and hash out the diagram.
<b>Also, please feel free to respond to this email thread and submit changes, ahead of the meetings, to try to work out, edit, and ‘flesh’ out this diagram.</b> It will be helpful to get some portions done before we meet. We’ll consider this diagram a living
document. In addition, please tag on any Use-Case descriptions, UML, and flow diagrams that you want to test against the current OFMF diagrams, at any step.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Right now, I am trying to work out how the left side of the diagram looks and works for HPC clients. That is slide 2.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Slide 1: Our current diagram after Friday<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Slide 2: Left side clients and the Composability Layer<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Slide 3: The old diagram, pre-Wednesday and pre-Friday<o:p></o:p></p>
