Just follow the install and configure instructions. In short you need
- openwsman
An open source implementation of the ws-management standard. - rwsman
Ruby bindings for openwsman client operations. - Ruby On Rails
Web development that doesn't hurt - Railsapp
Rails demo application for rwsman
Discovery page
will appear.
Look closely at the Actions line for each host and you'll notice the YaST action for the openSUSE client. This client has my openwsman-yast plugin installed.
The demo application allows to start and stop the desktop (the xdm service to be precise) and to switch the desktop environment between KDE and GNOME.
YaST operations
Doc has videotaped a demo, you can find it in the idea.opensuse.org blog.

At Hospital Clinic de Barcelona, we are evaluating the feasibility to develop a home made Energy Monitoring System, for PCs and printers, in order to promote hibernation during out of off work times and save energy
I have been trying to bring up the demo aplication you talked about on this post
I have managed to adapt the application to the new API interfaces of OpenWSman, but it seems that there is a small bug in the implementation of the access to the YaST plugin
Both from the ruby demo, and from the wsman command interface, we get an error message when invoking the execute procedure.
It seems that the module yast_stub_custom.c looks for an unexistent ycp node in the inblound XML message
next there is the call that raises the error
hnode_t *ycpnode = hash_lookup( method_args, "ycp" );
debug ("YaST: 'ycp' node @ %p", ycpnode );
if (!ycpnode) {
status.fault_code = WSMAN_SCHEMA_VALIDATION_ERROR;
status.fault_detail_code = WSMAN_DETAIL_INVALID_VALUE;
debug( "YaST: no 'ycp' property found for 'eval'" );
goto cleanup;
}
Indeed, openwsman-yast is broken for recent versions of openwsman. Sorry for that !
I have updated openwsman-yast at the OpenSUSE build service. Please grab version 1.5.10 from there
