DMTF’s Redfish Forum held a live webinar on Monday, May 24th. Presented by the chairs of the Redfish Forum and hosted on Zoom, this webinar covered the contents of the 2021.1 release. Redfish extended the composability model to add multi-client support. Resource blocks can now be allocated to free pools or active pools so a client can easily understand their resource usage. A new Compose action was also added to allow clients to provide a manifest of operations that describe a desired outcome. Enhancements to the networking model were introduced to add Ethernet-related metrics to the NetworkAdatper, NetworkDeviceFunction, and Port resources. In addition, LLDP control was added to NetworkAdapter and Port. New models were added to represent USB controllers and graphics controllers. These resources can be found in ComputerSystem and allow for representing their ports. The presentation was followed by a Q&A session.
