AlertingElementFormat
|
The format of the AlertingManagedElement property is interpretable
based on the value of this property.
Possible values are:
- 0 = Unknown — The format is unknown or not meaningfully interpretable
by a CIM client application.
- 1 = Other — The format is defined by the value of the OtherAlertingElementFormat
property.
- 2 = CIMObjectPath — The format is a CIMObjectPath, with format
NamespacePath:ClassName.Prop1 =
Value1, Prop2=
Value2, . . . specifying an instance in the CIM Schema.
|
AlertingManagedElement
|
The identifying information of the entity (that is, the
instance) for which this Indication is generated. The property contains
the path of an instance, encoded as a string parameter — if the instance
is modeled in the CIM Schema. If it is not a CIM instance, the property
contains some identifying string that names the entity for which the
Alert is generated. The path or identifying string is formatted per
the AlertingElementFormat property.
|
AlertType
|
Primary classification of the Indication.
Possible
values are:
- 1 = Other — The Indication's OtherAlertType property conveys its
classification. Use of
Other in an enumeration is a standard
CIM convention. It means that the current Indication does not fit
into the categories described by this enumeration.
- 2 = Communications Alert — An Indication of this type is principally
associated with the procedures and/or processes required to convey
information from one point to another.
- 3 = Quality of Service Alert — An Indication of this type is principally
associated with a degradation or errors in the performance or function
of an entity.
- 4 = Processing Error — An Indication of this type is principally
associated with a software or processing fault.
- 5 = Device Alert — An Indication of this type is principally associated
with an equipment or hardware fault.
- 6 = Environmental Alert — An Indication of this type is principally
associated with a condition relating to an enclosure in which the
hardware resides, or other environmental considerations.
- 7 = Model Change — The Indication addresses changes in the Information
Model. For example, it may embed a Lifecycle Indication to convey
the specific model change being alerted.
- 8 = Security Alert — An Indication of this type is associated
with security violations, detection of viruses, and similar issues.
|
EventID
|
An instrumentation or provider-specific value that describes
the underlying
real-world event represented by the Indication.
Two Indications with the same, non NULL EventID value are considered,
by the creating entity, to represent the same event. The comparison
of two EventID values is only defined for Alert Indications with identical,
non NULL values of SystemCreateClassName, SystemName, and ProviderName.
|
IndicationIdentifier
|
An identifier for the Indication. This property is similar
to a key value in that it can be used for identification, when correlating
Indications (see the CorrelatedIndications array). Its value SHOULD
be unique as long as correlations are reported, but MAY be reused
or left NULL if no future Indications will reference it in their CorrelatedIndications
array. To ensure uniqueness, the value of IndicationIdentifier should
be constructed using the following
preferred algorithm:
<OrgID>:<LocalID>
Where <OrgID> and <LocalID>are
separated by a colon (:), and where <OrgID> must include a copyrighted,
trademarked, or otherwise unique name that is owned by the business
entity that is creating or defining the IndicationIdentifier or that
is a recognized ID that is assigned to the business entity by a recognized
global authority. (This requirement is similar to the <Schema Name>_<Class
Name> structure of Schema class names.) In addition, to ensure uniqueness
must not contain a colon (:). When using this algorithm, the first
colon to appear in IndicationIdentifier must appear between <OrgID>and
<LocalID> is chosen by the business entity and should not be re-used
to identify different underlying (real-world) elements. If the above
preferred algorithm is not used, the defining entity should assure
that the resulting IndicationIdentifier is not reused across any IndicationIdentifiers
that are produced by this or other providers for the NameSpace of
this instance.
|
IndicationTime
|
The time and date of creation of the Indication. The property
may be set to NULL if the entity creating the Indication is not capable
of determining this information.
-
NOTE: IndicationTime may
be the same for two Indications that are generated in rapid succession.
|
Message
|
The formatted message. This message is constructed by combining
some or all of the dynamic elements specified in the MessageArguments
property with the static elements uniquely identified by the MessageID
in a message registry or other catalog associated with the OwningEntity.
|
MessageArguments
|
An array containing the dynamic content of the message.
|
MessageID
|
A string that uniquely identifies, within the scope of the
OwningEntity, the format of the Message.
|
OtherAlertingElementFormat
|
A string defining
Other values for AlertingElementFormat.
This value MUST be set to a non NULL value when AlertingElementFormat
is set to a value of 1 (
Other). For all other values of AlertingElementFormat,
the value of this string must be set to NULL.
|
OtherAlertType
|
A string describing the Alert type — used when the AlertType
property is set to 1,
Other State Change.
|
OtherSeverity
|
Holds the value of the user-defined severity value when
PerceivedSeverity is 1 (
Other).
|
OwningEntity
|
A string that uniquely identifies the entity that owns the
definition of the format of the Message described in this instance.
OwningEntity MUST include a copyrighted, trademarked or otherwise
unique name that is owned by the business entity or standards body
defining the format.
|
PerceivedSeverity
|
An enumerated value that describes the severity of the Alert
Indication from the notifier's point of view:
Possible values
are:
- 2 and 0 — Information and Unknown (respectively) follow common
usage. Literally, the AlertIndication is purely informational or its
severity is unknown.
- 1 = Other — By CIM convention, is used to indicate that the Severity's
value can be found in the OtherSeverity property.
- 3 = Degraded/Warning — Is used when it is appropriate to let the
user decide if action is needed.
- 4 = Minor — Is used to indicate that action is needed, but the
situation is not serious now.
- 5 = Major — Is used to indicate that action is needed NOW.
- 6 = Critical — Is used to indicate that action is needed NOW and
the scope is broad (perhaps an imminent outage to a critical resource
results).
- 7 = Fatal/Non recoverable — Is used to indicate that an error
occurred, but it is too late to take remedial action.
