The enabled state of an element.

The possible values are:

Unknown (0)

The element is in an unknown state.

Other (1)

The element is in a known state that is not defined by other possible values.

Enabled (2)

The element can execute, process, and queue commands.

Disabled (3)

The element will drop commands and requests.

Shutting Down (4)

The element is in a transition to a disabled state.

Not Applicable (5)

The element does not support being enabled or disabled.

Enabled but Offline (6)

The element might be completing commands, and new requests are dropped.

In Test (7)

The element is in a test state.

Deferred (8)

The element is processing commands and queuing new requests.

Quiesce (9)

The element is in an enabled state, but with restricted capabilities.

Starting (10)

The element is in a transition to an enabled state, and new requests are queued.

HealthState

Data type: uint16

Access type: Read-only

Indicates the current health of the element. This attribute expresses the health of this element, but not necessarily the health of its subcomponents.

This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.

Unknown (0)

The implementation cannot report on HealthState at this time.

OK (5)

The element is fully functional and operates within normal operational parameters and without error.

Degraded/Warning (10)

The element is in working order, and all functionality is provided. However, the element does not function to the best of its abilities. For example, the element might not operate at optimal performance, or it might report recoverable errors.

Minor failure (15)

All functionality is available, but some functionality might be degraded.

Major failure (20)

The element is failing. It is possible that some or all of the functionality of this component is degraded or does not work.

Critical failure (25)

The element is nonfunctional, and recovery might not be possible.

Non-recoverable error (30)

The element has completely failed, and recovery is not possible. All functionality that this element provides has been lost.

DMTF Reserved

Reserved.

InstallDate

Data type: datetime

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MappingStrings ("MIF.DMTF|ComponentID|001.5")

Indicates when the object was installed. The 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: Override ("Name"), MaxLen (256)

A unique identifier of the protocol endpoint that indicates the managed functionality. The naming convention for this property is defined in the NameFormat property.

NameFormat

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MaxLen (256)

The naming convention used by the Name property to ensure that Name values are unique. For example, you can append the ProtocolIFType property value to the beginning of the name followed by an underscore.

OperationalStatus

Data type: uint16 array

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Override ("OperationalStatus"), MappingStrings ("MIB.IETF|IF-MIB.ifOperStatus")

An array that contains the current status of the element. The first value of the OperationalStatus array should contain the primary status for the element.

The possible values are:

Unknown (0)

The implementation cannot report the status at this time.

Other (1)

An undefined state.

OK (2)

Full functionality without errors.

Degraded (3)

The element is in working order and that all functionality is provided. However, the element does not function to the best of its abilities. For example, the element might not operate at optimal performance, or it might report recoverable errors.

Stressed (4)

The element functions, but requires attention. Overload and overheated are examples of Stressed states.

Predictive Failure (5)

The element functions nominally, will probably fail in the near future.

Error (6)

An error has occurred.

Non-Recoverable Error (7)

A nonrecoverable error has occurred.

Stopping (9)

The job is stopping.

Stopped (10)

The element has been intentionally stopped.

In Service (11)

The element is in process to be configured, maintained, cleaned, or otherwise administered.

No Contact (12)

The monitoring system has information about this element, but has never been able to establish communications with it.

Lost Communication (13)

The monitoring system has successfully contacted this element in the past, but it is currently unavailable.

Aborted (14)

The job stopped in an unexpected way. The state and configuration of the job might require an update.

Dormant (15)

The job is inactive.

Supporting Entity in Error (16)

An element on which this job depends is in error. This element might be OK but cannot function because of the state of a dependent element. An example is a network service or endpoint that cannot function due to lower-layer networking problems.

Completed (17)

The job has completed its operation. This value should be combined with either OK, Error, or Degraded to indicate to a client whether the complete operation Completed with OK and passed, or completed with Error and failed, or completed with Degraded and finished the operation, but did not complete OK or did not report an error.

Power Mode (18)

The element has additional power model information that is contained in the associated power management service.

Disabled (3)

Indicates a request to immediately disable the element, such that it does not execute or accept any commands or processing requests.

Shut Down (4)

Indicates a request for an orderly transition to the Disabled state, and might require you to shut off the power to completely erase any existing state.

No Change (5)

No state change has been requested.

Offline (6)

Indicates a request to change to the Enabled but Offline state.

Test (7)

Indicates that the element is in a test state.

Indicates that the element might be completing commands, but that it queues any new requests.

Quiesce (9)

Indicates that the element is enabled but is in a restricted mode.

Reboot (10)

Indicates a request to shut down and then change to an Enabled state.

Reset (11)

Indicates a request to change to a Disabled state and then change to an Enabled state.

Qualifiers: ArrayType ("Indexed"), ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_ManagedSystemElement.OperationalStatus")

Indicates descriptions of the corresponding values in the OperationalStatus array. For example, if an element in the OperationalStatus property contains the value Stopping, then the element at the same array index in this property might contain an explanation as to why an object is being stopped.

This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.

SystemCreationClassName

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Key, Propagated ("CIM_System.CreationClassName"), MaxLen (256)

The class name used to create an instance of the system that contains the SAP. SystemCreationClassName is combined with other key properties of this class to uniquely identify instances of this class and its subclasses.

TimeOfLastStateChange

Data type: datetime

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Override ("TimeOfLastStateChange"), MappingStrings ("MIB.IETF|IF-MIB.ifLastChange")

The date and time when the EnabledState property last changed. If EnabledState has not changed and this property is populated, then it must be set to a zero interval value. If a state change was requested, but rejected or not yet processed, the property must not be updated.
