Functional Components and Interfaces in SCOMO

1    SCOMO Server
The SCOMO Server is a logical entity which is dedicated to issue SCOMO Operations to the device or consume the SCOMO Alerts from the device.
2    SCOMO Client
The SCOMO Client is responsible for executing SCOMO Operations.  It consumes the Software Component delivered to the device and is expected to relay SCOMO Alerts conveying a success or failure result back to the SCOMO Server .
3    The Device Management Client
The DM Client component makes it possible to initiate software component management in the device from a DM server. The DM Enabler provides support for device discovery and parameter setup by the DM Client component.  The SCOMO enabler provides a management object for software components that the DM Client component provides access to, such that the DM server can manipulate it.  The DM client interacts with a Software Component Agent in the device that is responsible for conducting the management activities using a delivered software component management object.  The DM client employs the Generic Alert [DMPRO] mechanism to communicate the final notification comprising the status of the management activity. ScoMo does not define or specify the Device Management Client
4    Alternate Download Client
The alternate download client is an optional feature that may exist on the device and used for downloading software components to the device when the DMPRO is not being used for such downloads. The alternate download client may support DLOTA or something else. SCOMO does not define or specify the alternate download client
5    The Device Management Server
The SCOMO architecture requires the DM server component to support device discovery, determination of an appropriate software component and delivery of a software component management object to the device over Large Object downloads if the device can support that. It also facilitates receipt of a final notification from the device employing the Generic Alert mechanism. SCOMO does not define or specify the Device Management Server.
6    The Alternate Download Server
The Alternate Download Server is an optional feature of the device management system that makes it possible to download software management objects using the alternate download mechanism, such as DLOTA.  The Download Server is not defined or specified within the scope of SCOMO
7    External Management Infrastructure
The Device Management System comprises of a set of external management components over and above the device management server that participate in the overall process of managing devices. The external management infrastructure is used but not defined or specified within the scope of the SCOMO.
