ElementName
|
string
|
|
A end user relevant name for the element being created. If NULL, then a system-supplied default name can be used. The value will be stored in the'ElementName'property for the created element. If not NULL, this parameter will supply a new name when modifying an existing element. |
ElementType
|
uint16
|
|
Enumeration indicating the type of element being created or modified. If the input parameter TheElement is specified when the operation is a'modify', this type value must match the type of that instance. The actual CIM class of the created TheElement can be vendor-specific, but it must be a derived class of the appropriate CIM class -- i.e., CIM_StorageVolume, CIM_StorageExtent, CIM_LogicalDisk, or CIM_StoragePool. |
Goal
|
CIM_ManagedElement
|
|
The requirements for the element to maintain. If set to a null value, the default configuration associated with the Service will be used. This parameter should be a reference to a Setting, SettingData, or Profile appropriate to the element being created. If not NULL, this parameter will supply a new Goal when modifying an existing element. |
Size
|
uint64
|
|
As an input parameter Size specifies the desired size. If not NULL, this parameter will supply a new size when modifying an existing element. As an output parameter Size specifies the size achieved. |

|
|
As an input parameter: if null, creates a new element. If not null, then the method modifies the specified element. As an output parameter, it is a reference to the resulting element. |
out |

|
CIM_ConcreteJob
|
|
Reference to the job (may be null if job completed). |
Size
|
uint64
|
|
As an input parameter Size specifies the desired size. If not NULL, this parameter will supply a new size when modifying an existing element. As an output parameter Size specifies the size achieved. |
TheElement
|
CIM_LogicalElement
|
|
As an input parameter: if null, creates a new element. If not null, then the method modifies the specified element. As an output parameter, it is a reference to the resulting element. |

Goal
|
CIM_ManagedElement
|
|
The requirements for the element to maintain. If set toa null value, the default configuration from the source pool will be used.

Size
|
uint64
|
|
As an input parameter Size specifies the desired size. If not NULL, this parameter will supply a new size when modifying an existing element. As an output parameter Size specifies the size achieved. |
InPool
|
CIM_StoragePool
|
|
The Pool from which to create the element. This parameter must be set to null if the input parameter TheElement is specified (in the case of a'modify'operation). |
TheElement
|
CIM_LogicalElement
|
|
As an input parameter: if null, creates a new element. If not null, then the method modifies the specified element. As an output parameter, it is a reference to the resulting element. |

In |
ElementName
|
string
|
|
A end user relevant name for the pool being created. If NULL, then a system supplied default name can be used. The value will be stored in the'ElementName'property for the created pool. If not NULL, this parameter will supply a new name when modifying an existing pool. |
Goal
|
CIM_StorageSetting
|
|
Reference to an instance of StorageSetting that defines the desired capabilities of the StoragePool. If set to a null value, the default configuration from the source pool will be used. If not NULL, this parameter will supply a new Goal setting when modifying an existing pool. |
Size
|
uint64
|
|
As an input parameter this specifies the desired pool size in bytes. As an output parameter this specifies the size achieved. |

|
string
|
|
