Abstract

The subject disclosure is generally directed towards caching property values in a sparse cache for use in translating notifications to contain previous and source property values, e.g., for use in SMI-S compliant notifications (modification indications). When a modification indication that needs a previous instance and source instance, but only the source instance is available, a cache is accessed to obtain the previous property value. The modification indication is translated to contain the previous and source instance, and output, e.g., to a client subscriber. The cache is updated with the property values of the source instance in anticipation of being needed for a subsequent modification indication of that property.
