This document describes the changes that have been incorporated into the CIM Schema Version 2.29.0 release.
The experimental ZIP file contains entities that were approved for the CIM Schema Version 2.29.0 that did not have sufficient implementation experience to be taken Final. The final ZIP file contains entities that have at least two independent implementations. Entities that are designated as final cannot be changed in a backward incompatible way between minor version releases.

To install the CIM Schema:
These files contain all the MOF files that are part of the CIM schema. The experimental ZIP file contains the latest experimental schema. This schema may change in a backward incompatible way based on implementation experience. The final ZIP file contains just the portions of the schema that is in a final state.
These files contain a rendering of the CIM schema in XML into a single file.
These files contain a rendering of the CIM schema in XML into individual files, one file per entity.
These files contain a rendering of the CIM schema in XSD into individual files, one file per entity.
These files contain a rendering of the CIM schema in HTML format.
These files contain a comparison of the differences in the CIM schema rendered in HTML format. The files contain the differences between 2.29.0 Final and 2.29.0 Experimental, 2.29.0 and the prior releease Experimental and 2.29.0 and the prior release Final respectively.
These files contains the UML representations of the CIM schema in Visio and PDF format.
