RE: proposed AC018 rewording

Hi Heather & Zulah,
 
Nice work!
 
I've got a heads-up for you that the following may be headed your way.
 
As you may recall, during the Paris F2F, there was the mention that we might
want to relocate under AR018 the admin/management related security requirement, i.e. 
 
   D-AR006.13 Where a web service provides security features
   in line with AR006, it SHOULD provide the ability to manage
   that security in a meaningful way.

So, to the working group and the public, I'd like to suggest we start deliberating between:

   1) keep the issues of administering/managing WS security in the Security section; or
 
   2) incorporate them into the WS Management section, as D-AR018.x. 
 
Cheers,

Hi All,
 
 Here is a proposed rewording of AC018 from Heather and Zulah.

AC018 Enables the management of web services 

AC018.1 Ensures that implementations of the Web Services Architecture are manageable.
AR018.1.1 Define a base set of standard metrics for architectural components and their interactions accompanied by guidelines for measurement.
AR018.1.2 Define a base set of standard management operations for Web Services Architecture implementations. Management operations includes, but is not limited to, support for configuration control and lifecycle control.
AR018.1.3 Define a base set of management events to be issued by the Web Services Architecture implementation. 
AR018.1.4 Define a standard methodology for accessing management capabilities from the Web Services Architecture implementation. 

AC018.2 Ensures that implementations of the Web Service instances are manageable.
AR018.2.1 Define how a web service should expose web service specific metrics, configuration, operations, and events.
AR018.2.2 Support the discovery of web service management capabilities.
AR018.2.3 Define a standard methodology for accessing management capabilities of a Web Service through the Web Services Architecture implementation.

AC018.3 Ensure that at least the following types of management applications are supported: Performance Monitoring, Availability, Configuration, Control, and Service Level Agreements.
