Creating Open Provisioning Interface
clients

This chapter describes the steps necessary to create Open Provisioning
Interface (OPI) clients and provides an example of how to write a client to
perform specific OPI provisioning methods.

Prerequisites for creating OPI clients

You must:

•

have a working knowledge of Java application development.

•

be comfortable using DOS commands.

•

have the Java Developer Kit (JDK) 1.6.

•

have the Java executable available in the system path.

•

have the AXIS toolkit version 1.3 Final.

Attention:

Toolkits other than the Axis toolkit can be used to develop

OPI clients using the WSDL file.

Creating OPI clients

The following task flow shows the processes involved in creating OPI
clients.
