CreationClassName
|
string
|
|
CreationClassName indicates the name of the class or the subclass used in the creation of an instance. When used with the other key properties of this class, this property allows all instances of this class and its subclasses to be uniquely identified. |
Name
|
string
|
|
The inherited Name serves as key of a System instance in an enterprise environment. |
Read Only |
ElementName
|
string
|
|
A user-friendly name for the object. This property allows each instance to define a user-friendly name in addition to its key properties, identity data, and description information.The Name property of ManagedSystemElement is also defined as a user-friendly name. But, it is often subclassed to be a Key. The same property cannot convey both identity and a user-friendly name, without inconsistencies. Where Name exists and is not a Key (such as for instances of LogicalDevice), the same information can be presentin both the Name and ElementName properties. |
NameFormat
|
string
|
|
The System object and its derivatives are Top Level Objects of CIM. They provide the scope for numerous components. Having unique System keys is required. A heuristic can be defined in individual System subclasses to attempt to always generate the same System Name Key. The NameFormat property identifies how the System name was generated, using the subclass'heuristic. |

Indicates the current status(es) of the element. Various health and operational statuses are defined. Many of the enumeration's values are self- explanatory. However, a few are not and are described in more detail."Stressed"indicates that the element is functioning, but needs attention. Examples of"Stressed"states are overload, overheated, etc."Predictive Failure"indicates that an element is functioning nominally but predicting a failure in the near future."In Service"describes an element being configured, maintained, cleaned, or otherwise administered."No Contact"indicates that the monitoring system has knowledge of this element, but has never been able to establish communications with it."Lost Communication"indicates that the ManagedSystem Element is known to exist and has been contacted successfully in the past, but is currently unreachable."Stopped"and"Aborted"are similar, although the former implies a clean and orderly stop, while the latter implies an abrupt stop where the element's state and configuration may need to be updated."Dormant"indicates that the element is inactive or quiesced."Supporting Entity in Error"describes that this element may be"OK"but that another element, on which it is dependent, is in error. An example is a network service or endpoint that cannot function due to lower layer networking problems."Completed"indicates the element has completed its operation. This value should be combined with either OK, Error, or Degraded so that a client can till if the complete operation passed (Completed with OK), and failure (Completed with Error). Completed with Degraded implies the operation finished, but did not complete OK or report an error."Power Mode"indicates the element has additional power model information contained in the Associated PowerManagementService association.OperationalStatus replaces the Status property on ManagedSystemElement to provide a consistent approach to enumerations, to address implementation needs for an array property, and to provide a migration path from today's environment to the future. This change was notmade earlier since it required the DEPRECATED qualifier. Due to the widespread use of the existing Status property in management applications, providers/instrumentation must provide both the Status and OperationalStatus properties. Further, the first value of OperationalStatus will contain the primary status for the element. When instrumented, Status (since it is single-valued) will also provide the primary status of the element. |
