StartService method of the CIM_IdentityManagementService class
The StartService method places the Service in the started state. Note that the function of this method overlaps with the RequestedState property. RequestedState was added to the model to maintain a record (such as a persisted value) of the last state request. Invoking the StartService method should set the RequestedState property appropriately. The method returns an integer value of 0 if the Service was successfully started, 1 if the request is not supported, and any other number to indicate an error. In a subclass, the set of possible return codes could be specified using a ValueMap qualifier on the method. The strings to which the ValueMap contents are translated can also be specified in the subclass as a Values array qualifier. Note: The semantics of this method overlap with the RequestStateChange method that is inherited from EnabledLogicalElement. This method is maintained because it has been widely implemented, and its simple "start" semantics are convenient to use.
