Class CIM_ProtocolControllerMaskingCapabilities Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Version string 2.8.0 CIM_ProtocolControllerMaskingCapabilities Description string A subclass of Capabilities that defines the Masking-related capabilities of a ProtocolController. CIM_ProtocolControllerMaskingCapabilities Description string Capabilities is an abstract class whose subclasses describe abilities and/or potential for use. For example, one may describe the maximum number of VLANs that can be supported on a system using a subclass of Capabilities. Capabilities are tied to the elements which they describe using the ElementCapabilities association. Note that the cardinality of the ManagedElement reference is Min(1), Max(1). This cardinality mandates the instantiation of the ElementCapabilities association for the referenced instance of Capabilities. ElementCapabilities describes the existence requirements and context for the referenced instance of ManagedElement. Specifically, the ManagedElement MUST exist and provides the context for the Capabilities. Note that Capabilities do not indicate what IS configured or operational, but what CAN or CANNOT exist, be defined or be used. Note that it is possible to describe both supported and excluded abilities and functions (both capabilities and limitations) using this class. CIM_Capabilities Description string ManagedElement is an abstract class that provides a common superclass (or top of the inheritance tree) for the non-association classes in the CIM Schema.

Property PortsPerView Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string An integer enumeration indicating the way that ports per view (ProtocolController) are handled by the underlying storage system.

Property ClientSelectableDeviceNumbers Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string Set to true if this storage system allows the client to specify the DeviceNumber parameter when calling ControllerConfigurationService.AttachDevice() and ControllerConfigurationService.AttachDevice() and Set to false if the implementation does not allow unit numbers to vary for a ProtocolController. However, if set to false and a Device is not the Dependent of a ProtocolControllerForUnit association, the client must provide a DeviceNumber parameter in ControllerConfigurationService.AttachDevice. If set to false and the Device is already the Dependent of a ProtocolControllerForUnit association, then the client can omit the DeviceNumber parameter (or supply the same value) in subsequent ControllerConfigurationService.AttachDevice calls. CIM_ProtocolControllerMaskingCapabilities
Property AttachDeviceSupported Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string Set to true if this storage system supports the AttachDevice method. CIM_ProtocolControllerMaskingCapabilities
Property OneHardwareIDPerView Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string Set to true if this storage system limits configurations to a single subject hardware ID per view. Otherwise, multiple hardware ID types can be used. The default is FALSE, that multiple ID types may be used in a single view. CIM_ProtocolControllerMaskingCapabilities
Property UniqueUnitNumbersPerPort Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string When set to false, different ProtocolContollers attached to a LogicalPort can expose the same unit numbers. If true, then this storage system requires unique unit numbers across all the ProtocolControllers connected to a LogicalPort. CIM_ProtocolControllerMaskingCapabilities
Property PrivilegeDeniedSupported Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string Set to true if this storage system allows a client to create a Privilege instance with PrivilegeGranted set to FALSE. CIM_ProtocolControllerMaskingCapabilities
Property ProtocolControllerRequiresAuthorizedIdentity Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string If true, this property indicates that a Privilege/Identity pair MUST be specified when CreateProtocolControllerWithPorts() is called. If false, then the Privilege/Identity pair in CreateProtocolControllerWithPorts() MUST NOT be set. CIM_ProtocolControllerMaskingCapabilities
Property ProtocolControllerSupportsCollections Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string If true, this property indicates that the Identity parameter of CreateProtocolConntrollerWithPorts() MUST contain a reference to a CIM_Collection (or subclass) or to a CIM_Identity (or subclass). CIM_ProtocolControllerMaskingCapabilities
Property InstanceID Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Key boolean true CIM_Capabilities Description string Within the scope of the instantiating Namespace, InstanceID opaquely and uniquely identifies an instance of this class. In order to ensure uniqueness within the NameSpace, the value of InstanceID SHOULD be constructed using the following ’ preferred ’ algorithm: < OrgID > : < LocalID > Where < OrgID > and < LocalID > are separated by a colon ’ : ’ , and where < OrgID > MUST include a copyrighted, trademarked or otherwise unique name that is owned by the business entity creating/defining the InstanceID, or is a registered ID that is assigned to the business entity by a recognized global authority (This is similar to the < Schema Name > _ < Class Name > structure of Schema class names.) In addition, to ensure uniqueness < OrgID > MUST NOT contain a colon ( ’ : ’ ). When using this algorithm, the first colon to appear in InstanceID MUST appear between < OrgID > and < LocalID > . < LocalID > is chosen by the business entity and SHOULD not be re-used to identify different underlying (real-world) elements. If the above ’ preferred ’ algorithm is not used, the defining entity MUST assure that the resultant InstanceID is not re-used across any InstanceIDs produced by this or other providers for this instance ’ s NameSpace. For DMTF defined instances, the ’ preferred ’ algorithm MUST be used with the < OrgID > set to ’ CIM ’ . CIM_Capabilities
Property ElementName Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Required boolean true CIM_Capabilities Override string ElementName CIM_Capabilities Description string The user friendly name for this instance of Capabilities. In addition, the user friendly name can be used as a index property for a search of query. (Note: Name does not have to be unique within a namespace.) CIM_Capabilities
Property Caption Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string The Caption property is a short textual description (one- line string) of the object. CIM_ManagedElement MaxLen uint32 64 CIM_ManagedElement
Property Description Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string The Description property provides a textual description of the object. CIM_ManagedElement
Property ElementName Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string 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 that ManagedSystemElement ’ s Name property 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 MAY be present in both the Name and ElementName properties. CIM_ManagedElement
