CIM_LogicalElement class
The CIM_LogicalElement class is the base class for all the components of the system that represent abstract system components.
Example: profiles, processes, or system capabilities in the form of logical devices.
The following syntax is simplified from Managed Object Format (MOF) code and includes all of the inherited properties.

Properties
The CIM_LogicalElement class has these properties.
-
Caption
-
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: MaxLen (64)
The Caption property is a short textual description (one-line string) of the object.
This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.
-
-
Description
-
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
The Description property provides a textual description of the object.
This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.
-
-
InstallDate
-
-
Data type: datetime
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: MappingStrings ("MIF.DMTF|ComponentID|001.5")
The InstallDate property is a datetime value indicating when the object was installed. A lack of a value does not indicate that the object is not installed.
This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.
-
-
Name
-
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: MaxLen (256)
The Name property defines the label by which the object is known. When subclassed, the Name property can be overridden to be a Key property.
This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.
-
-
Status
-
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: MaxLen (10)
The Status property is a string indicating the current status of the object. Various operational and non-operational statuses can be defined. Operational statuses are "OK", "Degraded" and "Pred Fail". "Pred Fail" indicates that an element may be functioning properly but predicting a failure in the near future. An example is a SMART-enabled hard drive. Non-operational statuses can also be specified. These are "Error", "Starting", "Stopping" and "Service". The latter, "Service", could apply during mirror-resilvering of a disk, reload of a user permissions list, or other administrative work. Not all such work is on-line, yet the managed element is neither "OK" nor in one of the other states.
This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.
