About openwsman

Openwsman (www.openwsman.org) is a project intended to provide an open-source implementation of the Web Services Management specification (WS-Management) and to expose system management information on the Linux operating system using the WS-Management protocol. WS-Management is based on a suite of web services specifications and usage requirements that exposes a set of operations focused on and covers all system management aspects.

Using the bindings

The bindings provide access to the client-side API of openwsman. You start by creating a Client instance and set up ClientOptions to control the communication.

The Client instance now provides the WS-Management operations, like enumerate, get, invoke, etc.

All client operations return a XmlDoc representing the SOAP response from the system. # You can then use XmlDoc methods to extract SOAP elements from the response and dig down through its XmlNode and XmlAttr objects.
