Introduction
Symmetrix Management Console overview
Symmetrix® Management Console (SMC) is a simple, intuitive,
browser-based user interface for the configuration and management
of Symmetrix arrays. It was developed to concurrently support all the
features of Enginuity™ Version 5671 and higher.
SMC presents the functionality of the Solutions Enabler SYMCLI
(command line interface) in a browser interface. You can use SMC to:
12
◆
Manage Symmetrix access controls, user accounts, and roles
◆
Discover Symmetrix arrays
◆
Perform configuration operations (create devices, map and mask
devices, set Symmetrix attributes, set device attributes, set port
flags, create SAVE device pools)
◆
Manage devices (change device configuration, set device status,
reserve devices, duplicate devices, create/dissolve metadevices)
◆
Manage Fully Automated Storage Tiering (FAST), Virtual
Provisioning™, and Auto-provisioning Groups
◆
Perform and monitor replication operations
(TimeFinder®/Mirror, TimeFinder/Snap, TimeFinder/Clone,
SRDF®, Open Replicator)
◆
Monitor alerts
◆
Monitor an application’s performance
◆
Dynamically provision storage in virtual computing
environments (Storage Pool Management)
Introduction
Symmetrix Performance Analyzer overview
EMC® Symmetrix® Performance Analyzer (SPA) is an intuitive,
browser-based tool used to perform historical trending and analysis
of Symmetrix array performance data. SPA was developed to work
with the Symmetrix Management Console (SMC). The SPA interface
can open in its own web window from the SMC menu, or on its own.
SPA adds an optional layer of data collection, analysis, and
presentation tools to the SMC implementation. You can use SPA to:
◆
Set performance thresholds and alerts
◆
View high frequency metrics in realtime
◆
Perform root cause analysis
◆
View graphs detailing system performance
◆
Drill-down through data to investigate issues
◆
Monitor performance and capacity over time
◆
Execute queries and export that data to a file
◆
Create your own dashboard view
SPA also provides a “fast lane” to display possible performance road
blocks with one click, and includes export and print capability for all
data graphs.

Introduction
Before you begin
Before you begin installing the SMC/SPA, you should review the
information in this section.
SMC prerequisites
SMC V7.2 has the following prerequisites:
◆
Solutions Enabler V7.2 (minimum) must be installed.
Note: The installation wizard will fail if the proper level of Solutions
Enabler is not installed on the host.
◆
SMC can be installed on the same system as the SYMAPI server,
or on a system connected to the SYMAPI server. Refer to Figure 1
on page 16 and Figure 2 on page 16, respectively.
◆
Java runtime environment must be enabled on the client browser.
◆
If you are changing your SYMAPI connection type
(local/remote), you must uninstall SMC before reinstalling it. For
example, if you change from a local connection to client/server.
Note: For additional environment requirements and product updates, refer to
the EMC Symmetrix Management Console Release Notes.
SPA prerequisites
SPA V2.1 has the following prerequisites:
◆
If upgrading from an earlier version to V2.1, backup the SPA
database using the SPA DB Backup utility. The utility is available
on Powerlink. For instructions on using the utility, refer to its
README file.
◆
Solaris/Linux installations: When performing a new SPA
installation on Solaris or Linux, the mysql user and mysql group
must be present before beginning the SPA installation. An
example of the MySql instructions follows:
shell> groupadd mysql
shell> useradd -g mysql mysql
14
Introduction
Initial Setup User
While installing the software, you will be prompted to specify an
Initial Setup User. You can either specify the user ID you currently
use to access the Symmetrix array (if User Authorization is enabled),
or you can use the default user ID smc. If you plan on using the
default ID, there must be no user IDs listed in the User Authorization
database. If there are user IDs in the database (regardless of whether
user authorization is enabled), then you must use SYMCLI to add the
default user ID (smc) to the database.
The initial setup user's role is to install and set up the SMC
environment (create users and add roles). It is intended to be a
temporary role as it will only allow you to access and perform
administrative tasks on Symmetrix arrays that do not have defined
user roles (authorization rules). Once an Administrator or
SecurityAdmin is assigned to a Symmetrix array, the initial setup user
will no longer be able to access or even see the array from the SMC
console. Therefore, it is recommended that users not operate in this
role for too long.
Note: “Security features” on page 83 contains more information on users and
roles.
Local and remote installation options
SMC and SPA can be installed in local or remote configurations. In a
local configuration, install the SMC/SPA software and license keys
on a host running Solutions Enabler attached to Symmetrix arrays
(Figure 1 on page 16). In a remote configuration, install the SMC/SPA
software and license keys on a system (SMC Server) connected to the
SYMAPI server (Figure 2 on page 16).

Introduction
SMC on the Symmetrix service processor
SMC is available on the Symmetrix service processor as part of EMC’s
management integration. Before deploying SMC in this manner, you
should be aware of the following:
◆
The service processor is shared with EMC Customer service for
normal service operations.
◆
There is no host access to the service processor, thereby limiting
your ability to do backups of your management environment.
This will prevent you from backing up SMC and Solutions
Enabler configuration files and/or device groups.
◆
Additionally, you will need to involve Customer Service to
start/stop Solutions Enabler services or the SMC service.
◆
You must involve Customer Service to review Solutions Enabler
logs.
◆
The following features are not supported when running SMC on
the Symmetrix service processor:
• Storage Pool Management (SPM)
• Windows authentication
• RDF consistency groups
• Group name services (GNS)
SMC on the service processor is disabled by default. To enable it,
contact EMC Customer Service.
Note: SPA is not available on the Symmetrix service processor.
SMC Virtual Appliance
SMC is also available as a virtual appliance for ESX V3.5 (and higher)
Servers in a VMware environment. For more information and
instructions on deploying the appliance, refer to “Deploying the SMC
Virtual Appliance” on page 33.

This section describes the tasks to perform post installation.
Configuring language and regional settings
For users outside the United States, you must configure your
Windows regional and language settings to English (United States) if
you plan on using the graph feature of the QoS and Replication
Monitors. To configure your settings:
1. Stop the EMC SMAS service (if it is running).“Starting and
stopping the SMAS service (for both SMC and SPA installations)”
on page 28 provides instructions.
2. In the Windows Control panel, double-click Regional and

3. On the Regional Options tab, set the Standards and formats to
English (United States).
4. On the Advanced tab, set the Language for non-Unicode
programs to English (United States) and select Apply all setting
to the current user account and to the default user profile.
5. Restart the service.
Licensing SMC
When logging into SMC for the first time, the Web Console Login
Window (Figure 3 on page 48) will prompt you for a host-based
license key (if SMC is not currently licensed).
Licensing SPA
SPA 2.1 uses host-based eLicensing to enter and query its licenses.
Starting with 2.1, there is only a single SPA license.
Note: SPA 2.0 utilizes host-based Electronic License Management, therefore
you will be provided with a License Authorization Code letter for your SPA
software. Use this license code to register the SPA software electronically on
the EMC Powerlink® website at:
24
Installation
You must install a SPA license file on each SPA host (Windows,
Solaris, and Linux x86 processor) using either the following symlmf
command or SMC’s License Manager feature:
symlmf add -type LicenseType
-dir PathToDirName
| -file PathToFileName
Where:
-type LicenseType — Specifies the type of licenses to be processed.
This can either be se which specifies the traditional Solutions Enabler
license or emclm which specifies the new EMC license. SPA licenses
use the emclm type.
-dir PathToDirName — Specifies a path to a directory that contains
license files with the .lic extension.
-file PathToFileName — Specifies a path to a file that contains
licenses.
Note: Installing licenses in the SMC help explains how to license SPA using the
License Manager.
Entering SPA licenses
in client/server mode
Note: The Remote Operations chapter in the EMC Solutions Enabler Installation
Guide explains how to set up client/server for SYMCLI.
Follow these steps to license SPA in a client/server configuration:
Server side
The server has SYMAPI, SYMCLI, and the required gatekeepers.
1. Add the SYMCLI server key with the symlmf command.
2. Verify that the storsrvd process is running.
Client side
1. Edit the netconfg file with the server name.
2. Set the following environment variables:
SYMCLI_CONNECT=SYMAPI_SERVER
SYMCLI_CONNECT_TYPE=REMOTE
3. Add the SPA license keys with the symlmf command, as follows:
symlmf -type emclm add -file PathToFileName.lic
25
Installation
4. Enter the following command to verify that the host displays in
the output:
symlmf -type emclm list
This verifies that the SPA license is included in the
symapi_clp_license.dat file on the server system.
Licensing examples
The following is an example of the symlmf add -dir command
which will add licenses from any files with the .lic extension in the
directory specified to the license database:
symlmf add -type emclm -dir /tmp/licenses
The following is an example of the symlmf add -file command
which will add licenses from the file specified to the license database:
symlmf add -type emclm -file /tmp/api57_072809.lic
During the processing of each license one of the following messages
displays indicating its processing status:
License FeatureName, SymmID, HostID, IssueDate: Status
The Status can be either:
Processed successful
Not Processed - unknown Symm ID
Not Processed - invalid signature
Not Processed - invalid Host ID
Not Processed - Expired
Not Processed - Licensing error: <error code>
The <error code> is the error returned by the ELM API which is
used to process the licenses.
When all the processing is complete a summary displays of the total
licenses that have been successfully and unsuccessfully processed as
shown below:
Total licenses Processed
: nn
Total licenses Not Processed : nn
Displaying SPA licenses
To display the SPA licenses, use the following form:
symlmf list
-type emclm [-v] [-host]
[-macaddr]
Where:
-host — Indicates that only licenses specified for this host should be
listed.
26
Installation
-macaddr — Indicates that macaddresses should be listed instead of
host names.
-v —Indicates that the list command should provide a verbose list.

In addition, you can also perform an operation on multiple objects at
the same time by either selecting a folder (e.g., Ungrouped) in the
navigation tree or using the Shift key to select multiple objects (e.g.,
devices) in a view, and then right-clicking to open the Control menu.
Note: When accessing the Control menu from the folder level, the menu
options will remain the same; however, they will be enabled/disabled based
on the selected object.
Table 2 maps the Control menu, dialog box names, and specifies the
object you must select to open the control dialog box. After selecting
an object you can open the dialog with the right-click menu, or select
Control from the menu bar.

Opening Symmetrix Performance Analyzer
The SPA installation is layered over the SMC software, therefore the
most common gateway to SPA is through SMC, however, SPA can
also be opened independently of SMC.
From SMC
From a web browser
Right-click an object from the SMC navigation tree, such as a
Symmetrix array, and select Performance Analyzer, and then
Snapshot, or Trend.
Open the web browser and enter:
http://localhost:7070/spa
or
http://localhost:8443/spa
The EMC Symmetrix Performance Analyzer login window
(Figure 14) appears.
Figure 14

Type your SMC Username and Password. When using SPA, you
have the same access controls and privileges as you have in SMC.
74
SPA Overview
SPA provides these views for analyzing Symmetrix array data.
◆
Dashboards — The Dashboards view provides supplied views of
the Symmetrix arrays, and allows you to define and manage your
own dashboard. A dashboard can contain charts or a Symmetrix
heat map.
◆
Real Time — The Real Time view provides high frequency data
collection and displays the selected metrics as they become
available. This view also allows for data saves for a 1-hour time
window.
◆
Diagnostic — The Diagnostic view analyzes high- and low-level
metrics. It provides an intuitive root cause analysis engine that
provides access to all available metrics and includes composite
comparison charts of related metrics. It also has device-level
views, and typically focuses on a short time, such as a couple of
hours.
◆
Snapshot — The Snapshot view displays a calculation of the
collected data over time and shows the relationship between the
physical (array, disk, director) and logical (device group,
application) components of the array.
◆
Trend — The Trend view can best show the consumption of
resources over time. The Trend view also supports linear
projection lines, which can be used with user-defined thresholds
as the basis for capacity planning.
In addition, there are several dialogs that you can configure before
using SPA, as follows:
Table 4

Security features
This appendix provides a brief overview of the security features used
to secure access to SMC, SPA, and Symmetrix arrays. The SMC help
system contains specific configuration procedures required to enable
these features. References to those procedures are provided where
appropriate.
◆
◆
Authentication .................................................................................... 84
Authorization ..................................................................................... 85
Security features
83
Security features
Authentication
SMC/SPA supports the following types of authentication:
◆
Windows (local and domain based): Users login with Windows
domain\username and password (if they have a Windows
account on the SMC server).
◆
LDAP: Users login with their LDAP-SSL username and password
(if they have a user account stored on a LDAP-SSL server).
To use this method, an SMC Administrator or SecurityAdmin
must set up LDAP-SSL authentication in SMC. Configuring
authentication in the SMC online help contains instructions.
◆
Local SMC users: Users login with their SMC username and
password (if they have a local SMC user account).
To use this method, an SMC Initial Setup User, Administrator, or
SecurityAdmin must create a local SMC user account for the user.
Local user accounts are stored locally on the SMC server host and
work in much the same way as the other methods to validate user
credentials. Adding local SMC user accounts in the SMC online help
contains instructions.
84
Security features
Authorization
User authorization is a tool for restricting the management
operations users can perform on a Symmetrix array. By default,
authorization on a Symmetrix array is enabled for SMC users,
regardless of whether it has been enabled on the Symmetrix array.
When configuring user authorization, an Administrator or
SecurityAdmin maps individual users or groups of users to specific
roles, which determine the operations the users can perform.
Roles are typically set for an entire Symmetrix array. However, when
adding roles for use with the Storage Pool Management (SPM)
feature, they are set for the component level (thin pool and storage
group). Understanding Storage Pool Management in the SMC online
help contains more information on SPM.
User roles
The following introduces the available roles. Roles and their associated
permissions in the SMC online help provides more details on the
permissions associated with each role.
◆
None — Provides no permissions.
◆
Monitor — Performs read-only (passive) operations on a
Symmetrix array excluding the ability to read the audit log or
Access Control definitions.
◆
StorageAdmin — Performs all management (active or control)
operations on a Symmetrix array in addition to all Monitor
operations. This role does not allow users to perform security
operations.
◆
Administrator — Performs all operations on a Symmetrix array,
including security operations in addition to all StorageAdmin
and Monitor operations.
◆
SecurityAdmin — Performs security operations on a Symmetrix
array in addition to all Monitor operations.
◆
Auditor — Grants the ability to view, but not modify, security
settings for a Symmetrix array (including reading the audit log,
symacl list, and symauth) in addition to all Monitor operations.
This is the minimum role required to view the Symmetrix audit
log.
Authorization
85
Security features
In addition to the above user roles, SMC includes two administrative
roles:
◆
SMC Initial Setup User — Defined during installation, this
temporary role provides administrator-like permissions for the
purpose of adding local users and roles to SMC. For more
information on the Initial Setup User, see the online help.
◆
StorageAdmin - Virtualization Domain — Exists for the sole
purpose of setting up an Storage Pool Management environment.
Individual and group roles
Users gain access to a Symmetrix array or component either directly
through a role assignment and/or indirectly through membership in
a user group that has a role assignment.
User groups enable administrators to assign roles to multiple users
simultaneously. User groups are created on the SMC server according
to its operating system and assigned roles with SMC.
If a user has two different role assignments (one as an individual and
one as a member of a group), the permissions assigned to the user
will be combined. For example, if a user is assigned a Monitor role
and a StorageAdmin role through a group, the user will be granted
Monitor and StorageAdmin rights.
User IDs
Users and user groups are mapped to their respective roles by IDs.
These IDs consist of a three-part string in the form:
Type:Domain\Name
Where:
Type
Specifies the type of security authority used to
authenticate the user or group. Possible types are:
L
Indicates a user or group authenticated by
LDAP. In this case, Domain specifies the
server name. For example:
L:danube\Finance
Indicates that user group Finance logged in
through LDAP server Danube.
86
Security features
C
the SMC server. For example:
C:Boston\Legal
Indicates that user group Legal logged in
through SMC sever Boston.
H
logging into a local account on a Windows
host. In this case, Domain specifies the
hostname. For example:
H:jupiter\mason
Indicates that user mason logged in on host
jupiter.
D
a Windows domain. In this case, Domain
specifies the domain or realm name. For
example:
D:sales\putman
Indicates user putman logged in through a
Windows domain sales.
V
Name
a virtualization domain. In this case,
Domain specifies virtualization domain
name.
Specifies the username relative to that authority. It
cannot be longer than 32 characters and spaces are
allowed if delimited with quotes. Usernames can be
for individual users or user groups.
Within role definitions, IDs can be either fully qualified (as above),
partially qualified, unqualified. When the Domain portion of the ID
string is an asterisk (*), the asterisk is treated as a wildcard, meaning
any host or domain.
For example:
D:ENG\jones
Fully qualified path with a domain and
username.
D:*\jones
Partially qualified that matches username jones
with any domain.
Authorization
87
Security features
H:HOST\jones
Fully qualified path with a hostname and
username.
H:*\jones
Partially qualified that matches username jones
within any host.
jones
Unqualified username that matches any jones in
any domain on any host.
In the event that a user is matched by more than one mapping, the
user authorization mechanism uses the more specific mapping. If an
exact match (e.g., D:sales\putman) is found, that is used; if a partial
match (e.g., D:*\putman) is found, that is used; if an unqualified
match (e.g., putman) is found, that is used; otherwise, the user is
assigned a role of None.

GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Version 2.1, February 1999
Copyright (C) 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this
license document, but changing it is not allowed.
[This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts as
the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence the
version number 2.1.]
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change
free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.
This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some
specially designated software packages--typically libraries--of the
Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it.
You can use it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about
whether this license or the ordinary General Public License is the
better strategy to use in any particular case, based on the
explanations below.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use,
not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure
that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and
charge for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or
can get it if you want it; that you can change the software and use
pieces of it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you
can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these
rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if
you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis or
for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave you.
You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code.
If you link other code with the library, you must provide complete
object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them with the
90
library after making changes to the library and recompiling it. And
you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the
library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal
permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.
To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that there is
no warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is modified by
someone else and passed on, the recipients should know that what
they have is not the original version, so that the original author's
reputation will not be affected by problems that might be introduced
by others.
Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of any
free program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot
effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a
restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that any
patent license obtained for a version of the library must be consistent
with the full freedom of use specified in this license.
Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the
ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser
General Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and is
quite different from the ordinary General Public License. We use this
license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those libraries
into non-free programs.
When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using a
shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a
combined work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary
General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the
entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General
Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with
the library.
We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it
does Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General
Public License. It also provides other free software developers Less
of an advantage over competing non-free programs. These
disadvantages are the reason we use the ordinary General Public
License for many libraries. However, the Lesser license provides
advantages in certain special circumstances.
For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to
encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it
becomes a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs
91
must be allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free
library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this
case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free software
only, so we use the Lesser General Public License.
In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free
programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of
free software. For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in
non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU
operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating
system.
Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the
users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is linked
with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run that
program using a modified version of the Library.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a
"work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The
former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter
must be combined with the library in order to run.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND
MODIFICATION
0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other
program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or
other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms
of this Lesser General Public License (also called "this License"). Each
licensee is addressed as "you".
A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data
prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs
(which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.
The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work
which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the
Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under
copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a
portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated
straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is
included without limitation in the term "modification".)
"Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for
making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code
92
means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control
compilation and installation of the library.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running
a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from such a
program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for writing it).
Whether that is true depends on what the Library does and what the
program that uses the Library does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's
complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided
that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy
an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep
intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of
any warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the
Library.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy,
and you may at your option offer warranty protection in
exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any
portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy
and distribute such modifications or work under the terms of
Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these
conditions:
a. The modified work must itself be a software library.
b. You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices
stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
c. You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no
charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
d. If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a
table of data to be supplied by an application program that
uses the facility, other than as an argument passed when the
facility is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to
ensure that, in the event an application does not supply such
function or table, the facility still operates, and performs
whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful.
93
(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots
has a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the
application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any
application-supplied function or table used by this function
must be optional: if the application does not supply it, the
square root function must still compute square roots.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the
Library, and can be reasonably considered independent and
separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms,
do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as
separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as
part of a whole which is a work based on the Library, the
distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License,
whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire
whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who
wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or
contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the
intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of
derivative or collective works based on the Library.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on
the Library with the Library (or with a work based on the
Library) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does
not bring the other work under the scope of this License.
3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General
Public License instead of this License to a given copy of the
Library. To do this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this
License, so that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public
License, version 2, instead of to this License. (If a newer version
than version 2 of the ordinary GNU General Public License has
appeared, then you can specify that version instead if you wish.)
Do not make any other change in these notices.
Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for that
copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all
subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy.
This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of
the Library into a program that is not a library.
94
4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or
derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form
under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you
accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
source code, which must be distributed under the terms of
Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for
software interchange.
If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy
from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy
the source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to
distribute the source code, even though third parties are not
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the
Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being
compiled or linked with it, is called a "work that uses the
Library". Such a work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the
Library, and therefore falls outside the scope of this License.
However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library
creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it
contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the
library". The executable is therefore covered by this License.
Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.
When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header
file that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be
a derivative work of the Library even though the source code is
not. Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can
be linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The
threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.
If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data
structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small
inline functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the
object file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a
derivative work. (Executables containing this object code plus
portions of the Library will still fall under Section 6.)
Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may
distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section
6. Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6,
whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.
95
6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or
link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a
work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work
nder terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit
modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse
engineering for debugging such modifications.
You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that
the Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are
covered by this License. You must supply a copy of this License.
If the work during execution displays copyright notices, you
must include the copyright notice for the Library among them, as
well as a reference directing the user to the copy of this License.
Also, you must do one of these things:
a. Accompany the work with the complete corresponding
machine-readable source code for the Library including
whatever changes were used in the work (which must be
distributed under Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is
an executable linked with the Library, with the complete
machine-readable "work that uses the Library", as object code
and/or source code, so that the user can modify the Library
and then relink to produce a modified executable containing
the modified Library. (It is understood that the user who
changes the contents of definitions files in the Library will not
necessarily be able to recompile the application to use the
modified definitions.)
b. Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the
Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time
a copy of the library already present on the user's computer
system, rather than copying library functions into the
executable, and (2) will operate properly with a modified
version of the library, if the user installs one, as long as the
modified version is interface-compatible with the version that
the work was made with.
c. Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at least
three years, to give the same user the materials specified in
Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more than the cost of
performing this distribution.
d. If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy
from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the
above specified materials from the same place.
96
e. Verify that the user has already received a copy of these
materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.
For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the
Library" must include any data and utility programs needed
for reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special
exception, the materials to be distributed need not include
anything that is normally distributed (in either source or
binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel,
and so on) of the operating system on which the executable
runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.
It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license
restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally
accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means
you cannot use both them and the Library together in an
executable that you distribute.
7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library
facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a
combined library, provided that the separate distribution of the
work based on the Library and of the other library facilities is
otherwise permitted, and provided that you do these two things:
a. Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same
work based on the Library, uncombined with any other library
facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the
Sections above.
b. Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact
that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining
where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the
same work.
8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the
Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any
attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or
distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate
your rights under this License. However, parties who have
received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not
have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in
full compliance.
9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to
modify or distribute the Library or its derivative works. These
97
actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License.
Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Library (or any work
based on the Library), you indicate your acceptance of this
License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying,
distributing or modifying the Library or works based on it.
10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the
Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the
Library subject to these terms and conditions. You may not
impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the
rights granted herein.
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties
with this License.
11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent
issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order,
agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this
License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this
License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously
your obligations under this License and any other pertinent
obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the
Library at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit
royalty-free redistribution of the Library by all those who receive
copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you
could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely
from distribution of the Library.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable
under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is
intended to apply, and the section as a whole is intended to apply
in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
integrity of the free software distribution system which is
implemented by public license practices. Many people have
made generous contributions to the wide range of software
distributed through that system in reliance on consistent
application of that ystem; it is up to the author/donor to decide if
he or she is willing to distribute software through any other
system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.
98
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is
believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.
12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in certain
countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
original copyright holder who places the Library under this
License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation
excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only
in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this
License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this
License.
13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time.
Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version,
but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
Library specifies a version number of this License which applies
to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the
terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version
published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does
not specify a license version number, you may choose any version
ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free
programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with
these, write to the author to ask for permission. For software
which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to
the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for
this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving
the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of
promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE,
THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE
LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND,
EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT
LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND
99
PERFORMANCE OF THE LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD
THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST
OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR
AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER,
OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE
LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE
THE LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR
LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A
FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
SOFTWARE), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS
BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
