CreationClassName
|
Indicates the name of the class or the subclass that is
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.
|
ElementName
|
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.
-
NOTE: The Name property of
ManagedSystemElement is also defined as a user-friendly name. But,
it is often subclassed to be a Key. It is not reasonable that the
same property can 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.
|
EnabledDefault
|
An enumerated value indicating an administrator's default
or startup configuration for the Enabled State of an element. By default,
the element is
Enabled (value =
2).
Possible
values are:
- 2 = Enabled
- 3 = Disabled
- 5 = Not Applicable
- 6 = Enabled but Offline
- 7 = No Default
- 9 = Quiesce
- .. = DMTF Reserved
- 32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
|
EnabledState
|
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.
Possible values are:
- 0 = Unknown
- 1 = Other
- 2 = Enabled — Indicates that the element is or could be executing
commands, will process any queued commands, and queues new requests.
- 3 = Disabled — Indicates that the element will not execute commands
and will drop any new requests.
- 4 = Shutting Down — Indicates that the element is in the process
of going to a Disabled state.
- 5 = Not Applicable — Indicates the element does not support being
enabled or disabled.
- 6 = Enabled but Offline — Indicates that the element may be completing
commands, and will drop any new requests.
- 7 = In Test — Indicates that the element is in a test state.
- 8 = Deferred — Indicates that the element may be completing commands,
but will queue any new requests.
- 9 = Quiesce — Indicates that the element is enabled but in a restricted
mode.
- 10 = Starting — Indicates that the element is in the process of
going to an Enabled state. New requests are queued.
- 11..32767 = DMTF Reserved
- 32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
|
Name
|
The Name property uniquely identifies the Service and provides
an indication of the functionality that is managed. This functionality
is described in more detail in the Description property of the object.
|
RequestedState
|
An integer enumeration that indicates the last requested
or desired state for the element, irrespective of the mechanism through
which it was requested. The actual state of the element is represented
by EnabledState.
Possible values are:
- 0 = Unknown — Indicates the last requested state for the element
is unknown.
- 2 = Enabled
- 3 = Disabled
- 4 = Shut Down
- 5 = No Change
- 6 = Offline — Indicates that the element has been requested to
transition to the Enabled but Offline EnabledState.
- 7 = Test
- 8 = Deferred
- 9 = Quiesce
- 10 = Reboot — Refers to doing a
Shut Down and then moving
to an
Enabled state.
- 11 = Reset — Indicates that the element is first
Disabled and then
Enabled.
- 12 = Not Applicable
- .. = DMTF Reserved
- 32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
This property is provided to compare the last requested and
current enabled or disabled states. Note that when EnabledState is
set to
5 (
Not Applicable), then this property has no
meaning. Refer to the EnabledState property description for explanations
of the values in the RequestedState enumeration.
-
NOTE: The value
No Change (
5) has been deprecated instead of indicating the last requested
state is
Unknown (
0). If the last requested or desired
state is unknown, RequestedState should have the value
Unknown (
0), but may have the value
No Change (
5).
There are two new values in RequestedState that build
on the statuses of EnabledState. These are
Reboot (
10) and
Reset (
11). Shut Down requests an orderly transition
to the Disabled state, and may involve removing power, to completely
erase any existing state. The Disabled state requests an immediate
disabling of the element, such that it will not execute 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.
If knowledge of the last
RequestedState is not supported for the EnabledLogicalElement, the
property is NULL or has the value
12
Not Applicable.
|
SystemCreationClassName
|
The CreationClassName of the scoping System.
|
SystemName
|
The Name of the scoping System.
|
TransitioningToState
|
Indicates the target state to which the instance is transitioning.
- 0 = Unknown
- 2 = Enabled
- 3 = Disabled
- 4 = Shut Down
- 5 = No Change — Indicates that no transition is in progress.
- 6 = Offline
- 7 = Test
- 8 = Defer
- 9 = Quiesce
- 10 = Reboot
- 11 = Reset
- 12 = Not Applicable — Indicates the implementation does not support
representing ongoing transitions.
A value other than 5 or 12 identifies the state to which the
element is in the process of transitioning.
|
SetBIOSAttributes (Method)
|
This method is called to modify a group of BIOSAttribute
instances associated with this BIOSService. If the method is not supported
by the implementation,
1 (Not Supported) shall be returned.
If the method is supported, but has not completed due to an unspecified
error, 2 (Error) shall be returned. If the method is supported and
has completed successfully,
0 (Completed with No Error) shall
be returned. The method may return an instance of CIM_Error.
|
RemoteBIOSUpdate (Method)
|
This method is called to remotely update the BIOS image.
It takes the hdr file of the BIOS image as the only parameter.
