Enumeration indicating whether the ComputerSystem is a special-purpose System (ie, dedicated to a particular use), versus being'general purpose'. For example, one could specify that the System is dedicated to"Print"(value=11) or acts as a"Hub"(value=8).A clarification is needed with respect to the value 17 ("Mobile User Device"). An example of a dedicated user device is a mobile phone or a barcode scanner in a store that communicates via radio frequency. These systems are quite limited in function and programmability, and are not considered'general purpose'computing platforms. Alternately, an example of a mobile system that is'general purpose'(that is, is not dedicated) is a hand-held computer. Although limited in its programmability, new software can be downloaded and its function expanded by the user. |

EnabledState is an integer enumeration that indicates the enabled and disabled states of an element. It can also indicate the transitions between these requested states. For example, shutting down (value=4) and starting (value=10) are transient states between enabled and disabled. The following text briefly summarizes the various enabled and disabled states:Enabled (2) indicates that the element is or could be running commands, will process any queued commands, and queues new requests.Disabled (3) indicates that the element will not run commands and will drop any new requests.Shutting Down (4) indicates that the element is in the process of going to a Disabled state.Not Applicable (5) indicates the element does not support being enabled or disabled.Enabled but Offline (6) indicates that the element might be completing commands, and will drop any new requests.Test (7) indicates that the element is in a test state.Deferred (8) indicates that the element might be completing commands, but will queue any new requests.Quiesce (9) indicates that the element is enabled but in a restricted mode. The behavior of the element is similar to the Enabled state, but it processes only a restricted set of commands. All other requests are queued.Starting (10) indicates that the element is in the process of going to an Enabled state. New requests are queued. |

NameFormat
|
string
|
|
The ComputerSystem object and its derivatives are Top Level Objects of CIM. They provide the scope for numerous components. Having unique System keys is required. The NameFormat property identifies how the ComputerSystem Name is generated. The NameFormat ValueMap qualifier defines the various mechanisms for assigning the name. Another name can be assigned and used for the ComputerSystem that better suit a business, using the inherited ElementName property. |

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 not made 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. The node's operational status. Can be either 13 ("Lost Communication") for"offline", 2 ("OK") for"online", 8 ("Starting") for"adding", 9 ("Stopping") for"deleting", 19 ("Flushing") for"flushing", or 0 ("Unknown") otherwise |

RequestedState is an integer enumeration that indicates the last requested or desired state for the element. The actual state of the element is represented by EnabledState. This property is provided to compare the last requested and current enabled or disabled states. When EnabledState is set to 5 ("Not Applicable"), then this property has no meaning. By default, the RequestedState of the element is 5 ("No Change"). Refer to the EnabledState property description for explanations of the values in the RequestedState enumeration.It should be noted that there are two new values in RequestedState that build on the statuses of EnabledState. These are"Reboot"(10) and"Reset"(11). Reboot refers to doing a"Shut Down"and then moving to an"Enabled"state. Reset indicates that the element is first"Disabled"and then"Enabled". The distinction between requesting"Shut Down"and"Disabled"should also be noted. Shut Down requests an orderly transition to the Disabled state, and might involve removing power, to completely erase any existing state. The Disabled state requests an immediate disabling of the element, such that it will not run or accept any commands or processing requests.This property is set as the result of a method invocation (such as Start or StopService on CIM_Service), or can be overridden and defined as WRITEable in a subclass. The method approach is considered superior to a WRITEable property, because it allows an explicit invocation of the operation and the return of a result code.A particular instance of EnabledLogicalElement might not support RequestedStateChange. If this occurs, the value 12 ("Not Applicable") is used. |

If enabled (value = 4), the ComputerSystem can be reset via hardware (for example, the power and reset buttons). If disabled (value = 3), hardware reset is not allowed. In addition to Enabled and Disabled, other Values for the property are also defined -"Not Implemented"(5),"Other"(1) and"Unknown"(2). |
StatusDescriptions
|
string
|
|
Strings describing the various OperationalStatus array values. For example, if"Stopping"is the value assigned to OperationalStatus, then this property may contain an explanation as to why an object is being stopped. Entries in this array are correlated with those at the same array index in OperationalStatus. |

UPSUniqueID

Caption
|
string
|
|
The Caption property is a short textual description (one-line string) of the object. |
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 present in both the Name and ElementName properties. |
