Architecture - Dell PowerVault ML6000 Reference Manual

• Limited Access Port subprofile
• Software subprofile
The following subprofiles are used in modeling; however this version does not claim support of such profiles
as they are not supported subprofiles of the SML profile. As of SMI-S 1.3.0, these will be supported by SML
and then they will be officially supported by the implementers of this spec.
• SAS Target Port subprofile
• SPI Target Port subprofile
• Multiple Computer System subprofile
• Masking and Mapping profile
Optional support for the following will be provided in the future:
• Partitioned Library subprofile
• LibraryAlert Events/Indications for library devices
• Media Movement subprofile
Future SMI-S server releases planned to be SNIA SMI-S compliant.
