Thanks Krishna.

I was thinking of how to convey the information that is not available 
through
CDMI to the implementation of OCCI and was thinking of a special file system
(not CDMI exported, but always available) that was exported from the CDMI
system to the OCCI system. On this filesystem would be one or more files 
where
CDMI puts the information needed by OCCI to do the mounts, etc. When the
Client makes the call in 3), the OCCI implementation would re-query the file
and get the information needed. i.e "write-only" by CDMI and "read-only" 
from
OCCI.

Thoughts?
