CIM_AlertIndication class

  • Article

A concrete superclass for CIM alert notifications. CIM_AlertIndication is a specialized type of CIM_Indication class that contains information about the severity, cause, recommended actions, and other data for a real world event. This event and its data may or may not be modeled in the CIM class hierarchy.

The following syntax is simplified from Managed Object Format (MOF) code and includes all of the inherited properties.

Properties

The CIM_AlertIndication class has these properties.

AlertingElementFormat

Data type: uint16

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_AlertIndication.AlertingManagedElement", "CIM_AlertIndication.OtherAlertingElementFormat")

The format of the AlertingManagedElement property.

Unknown (0)

The format is unknown.

Other (1)

The format is defined by the value of the OtherAlertingElementFormat property.

CIMObjectPath (2)

A CIMObjectPath, with the format: <NamespacePath>:<ClassName>.<Prop1>="<Value1>", <Prop2>="<Value2>", . . . an instance in the CIM Schema.

AlertingManagedElement

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_AlertIndication.AlertingElementFormat")

The identifying information of the entity (ie, 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 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

Data type: uint16

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Required, MappingStrings ("Recommendation.ITU|X733.Event type")

The primary classification of the indication.

Other (1)

Communications Alert (2)

Security Alert (8)

CorrelatedIndications

Data type: string array

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MappingStrings ("Recommendation.ITU|X733.Correlated notifications"), ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_Indication.IndicationIdentifier")

A array that contains IndicationIdentifier values of notifications that are related this one.

This property is inherited from CIM_Indication.

Description

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MappingStrings ("Recommendation.ITU|X733.Additional text")

A short description of the Indication.

EventID

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_AlertIndication.ProbableCause")

An instrumentation or provider specific value that describes the underlying real-world event represented by the indication. 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 properties.

EventTime

Data type: datetime

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_AlertIndication.ProbableCause")

The time and date that indicates when the underlying event was first detected. If this values is specified and the creating entity is not capable of providing this information, this property must be set to NULL. This value is based on the notion of the local date and time of the CIM_ManageSystemElement object that generated the indication.

IndicationFilterName

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_IndicationFilter.Name")

The identifier of the indication filter that processes the indication. The sending service sets this property. This property correlates with the Name property of the CIM_IndicationFilter object. The value of IndicationFilterName should use the following format:

  • <OrgID>:<LocalID>
  • <OrgID> must include a copyrighted, trademarked, or unique name that is owned by the business entity that owns the object.
  • <OrgID> must not contain a colon (:)
  • <LocalID> a unique identifier chosen by the business entity that owns the object.

This property is inherited from CIM_Indication.

IndicationIdentifier

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MappingStrings ("Recommendation.ITU|X733.Notification identifier")

An identifier of the indication. This property can be used as a key value in the CorrelatedIndications property array. Therefore, IndicationIdentifier should be a unique value within the namespace of this class instance.

To ensure that IndicationIdentifier is unique, it should use the following format:

  • <OrgID>:<LocalID>
  • <OrgID> must include a copyrighted, trademarked, or unique name that is owned by the business entity that owns the object.
  • <OrgID> must not contain a colon (:)
  • <LocalID> a unique identifier chosen by the business entity that owns the object.
  • For DMTF-defined instances, <OrgID> should be set to "CIM".

This property is inherited from CIM_Indication.

IndicationTime

Data type: datetime

Access type: Read-only

The time and date when the indication was created. The property can be set to NULL if the entity that created the indication is not capable of determining this information.

Note

The IndicationTime value can be the same for indications that are generated in rapid succession.

This property is inherited from CIM_Indication.

Message

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_AlertIndication.MessageID", "CIM_AlertIndication.MessageArguments")

The formatted message for the alert indication. This message is formatted by combining one or more of the dynamic elements specified in the MessageArguments property, and with the static elements uniquely identified by the MessageID property.

ProbableCauseDescription

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_AlertIndication.ProbableCause")

Additional information related to the ProbableCause property.

ProviderName

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MaxLen (256)

The name of the provider that generated the indication.

RecommendedActions

Data type: string array

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MappingStrings ("Recommendation.ITU|X733.Proposed repair actions")

Free form descriptions of the recommended actions to take to resolve the cause of the notification.

SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR

Data type: uint8 array

Access type: Read-only

Descriptor used by the event provider to determine which users can receive the event. This property is inherited from __Event. For more information about constants used to set this security descriptor, see WMI Security Constants.

SequenceContext

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_Indication.SequenceNumber")

The sequence context of the sequence identifier for the indication. If a service does not support sequence identifiers for indications, this property should be set to NULL. If the indication is redelivered, this property remains the same.

Note

The sequence identifier for the indication enables a listener to identify duplicate indications when the service attempts to redeliver indications, reorder indications that arrive out of order, and detect lost indications.

To ensure that SequenceContext is unique, it should use the following format:

  • indication-service-name#cim-service-start-id #listener-destination-creation-time
  • indication-service-name is the value of the Name property of the CIM_IndicationService instance that delivers the indication.
  • cim-service-start-id is an identifier that uniquely identifies the start operation of a service. For example, this could be a timestamp of the start time, or a counter that increases for each start or restart of the service.
  • listener-destination-creation-time is a timestamp of the creation time of the CIM_ListenerDestination instance representing the listener destination.nSince this format is only a recommendation, CIM clients shall treat the value as an opaque identifier for the sequence context and shall not rely on this format.

This property is inherited from CIM_Indication.

SequenceNumber

Data type: sint64

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_Indication.SequenceContext")

The sequence number of the sequence identifier for the indication.

Note

The sequence identifier for the indication enables a listener to identify duplicate indications when the service attempts to redeliver indications, reorder indications that arrive out of order, and detect lost indications.

The sequence number has the following characteristics:

  • The sequence number is reset to "0" whenever the SequenceContext value changes.
  • Whenever the listener destination receives a new indication, the sequence number is increased by "1".
  • The sequence number wraps to "0" when the value range is exceeded.
  • If the indication is redelivered, the SequenceNumber remains the same.

This property is inherited from CIM_Indication.

SystemCreationClassName

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MaxLen (256)

The CreationClassName value of the scoping system for the provider that generated the indication.

SystemName

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MaxLen (256)

The scoping system name for the provider that generated the indication.

TIME_CREATED

Data type: uint64

Access type: Read-only
