Versionstring2.8.0 CIM_PackageLocation
DescriptionstringPackageLocation is a space/hole/shelf, possibly with mounting brackets or other connecting hardware, where other PhysicalPackages may be placed. This class describes an entity that holds something else and is not just a ’ place ’ (as is conveyed by the CIM_Location object). This class has several corollaries to HostingBoard. Where a HostingBoard (backplane) has connectors/slots to describe the capabilities of holding additional PhysicalPackages, a PackageLocation is used to describe the same case for the general package, where there may or may not be no connectors. Examples of PackageLocations would include a disk cage in a tower PC or the chassis area where the power supply is mounted. CIM_PackageLocation
DescriptionstringThe PhysicalPackage class represents PhysicalElements that contain or host other components. Examples are a Rack enclosure or an adapter Card. CIM_PhysicalPackage
DescriptionstringSubclasses of CIM_PhysicalElement define any component of a System that has a distinct physical identity. Instances of this class can be defined as an object that can be seen or touched. All Processes, Files, and LogicalDevices are considered not to be Physical Elements. For example, it is not possible to touch the functionality of a ’ modem. ’ You can touch only the card or package that implements the modem. The same card could also implement a LAN adapter. PhysicalElements are tangible ManagedSystemElements that have a physical manifestation of some sort. Note that the properties of PhysicalElement describe a hardware entity. Possible replacement (FRU) information is defined by following the ElementFRU association to one or more instances of the ReplacementFRU class. This definition allows a client to determine what hardware can be replaced (FRUed) and what ’ spare ’ parts might be required by a customer or engineer doing the replacement. If it can be instrumented or manually determined that an element actually replaced (FRUed) another, then this can be described in the model using the ElementHasBeenFRUed association. CIM_PhysicalElement
DescriptionstringCIM_ManagedSystemElement is the base class for the System Element hierarchy. Any distinguishable component of a System is a candidate for inclusion in this class. Examples of system components include: - software components such as application servers, databases, and applications - operating system components such as files, processes, and threads - device components such as disk drives, controllers, processors, and printers - physical components such as chips and cards. CIM_ManagedSystemElement
DescriptionstringManagedElement is an abstract class that provides a common superclass (or top of the inheritance tree) for the non-association classes in the CIM Schema. CIM_ManagedElement

Property Removable Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringThe use of this property is being deprecated. Instead RemovalConditions should be used. The RemovalConditions property addresses whether a PhysicalPackage is removable with or without power being applied. A PhysicalPackage is Removable if it is designed to be taken in and out of the physical container in which it is normally found, without impairing the function of the overall packaging. A Package can still be Removable if power must be ’ off ’ in order to perform the removal. If power can be ’ on ’ and the Package removed, then the Element is both Removable and HotSwappable. For example, an extra battery in a laptop is Removable, as is a disk drive Package inserted using SCA connectors. However, the latter is also HotSwappable. A laptop ’ s display is not Removable, nor is a non-redundant power supply. Removing these components would impact the function of the overall packaging or is impossible due to the tight integration of the Package. CIM_PhysicalPackage

Property Replaceable Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringThe use of this property is being deprecated because it is redundant with the FRU class and its associations. A PhysicalPackage is Replaceable if it is possible to replace (FRU or upgrade) the Element with a physically different one. For example, some ComputerSystems allow the main Processor chip to be upgraded to one of a higher clock rating. In this case, the Processor is said to be Replaceable. Another example is a power supply Package mounted on sliding rails. All Removable packages are inherently Replaceable. CIM_PhysicalPackage

Property HotSwappable Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringThe use of this property is being deprecated. Instead RemovalConditions should be used. The RemovalConditions property addresses whether a PhysicalPackage is removable with or without power being applied. A PhysicalPackage is HotSwappable if it is possible to replace the Element with a physically different but equivalent one while the containing Package has power applied to it (ie, is ’ on ’ ). For example, a disk drive Package inserted using SCA connectors is both Removable and HotSwappable. All HotSwappable packages are inherently Removable and Replaceable. CIM_PhysicalPackage

Property PackageType Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringEnumeration defining the type of the PhysicalPackage. Note that this enumeration expands on the list in the Entity MIB (the attribute, entPhysicalClass). The numeric values are consistent with CIM ’ s enum numbering guidelines, but are slightly different than the MIB ’ s values. Unknown - indicates that the package type is not known. Other - The package type does not correspond to an existing enumerated value. The value is specified using the OtherPackageType property. The values " Rack " through " Port/Connector " are defined per the Entity-MIB (where the semantics of rack are equivalent to the MIB ’ s ’ stack ’ value). The other values (for battery, processor, memory, power source/generator and storage media package) are self-explanatory. A value of " Blade " should be used when the PhysicalPackage contains the operational hardware aspects of a ComputerSystem, without the supporting mechanicals such as power and cooling. For example, a Blade Server includes processor(s) and memory, and relies on the containing chassis to supply power and cooling. In many respects, a Blade can be considered a " Module/Card " . However, it is tracked differently by inventory systems and differs in terms of service philosophy. For example, a Blade is intended to be hot-plugged into a hosting enclosure without requiring additional cabling, and does not require a cover to be removed from the enclosure for installation. Similarly, a " Blade Expansion " has characteristics of a " Blade " and a " Module/Card " . However, it is distinct from both due to inventory tracking and service philosophy, and because of its hardware dependence on a Blade. A Blade Expansion must be attached to a Blade prior to inserting the resultant assembly into an enclosure. CIM_PhysicalPackage

NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringAn array of strings that identify the component that is compatible with, and can be inserted in a slot that reports this string as one of the array element in the VendorCompatibilityStrings This allows system administrators to determine whether it is appropriate to insert a package into a slot In order to ensure uniqueness within the NameSpace, each value defined by the vendor for use in the VendorCompatibilityStrings property 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.

Property Tag Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
Keybooleantrue CIM_PhysicalElement
DescriptionstringAn arbitrary string that uniquely identifies the Physical Element and serves as the key of the Element. The Tag property can contain information such as asset tag or serial number data. The key for PhysicalElement is placed very high in the object hierarchy in order to independently identify the hardware or entity, regardless of physical placement in or on Cabinets, Adapters, and so on. For example, a hotswappable or removable component can be taken from its containing (scoping) Package and be temporarily unused. The object still continues to exist and can even be inserted into a different scoping container. Therefore, the key for Physical Element is an arbitrary string and is defined independently of any placement or location-oriented hierarchy. CIM_PhysicalElement

Note that the Name property of ManagedSystemElement 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.

Property OperationalStatus Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringIndicates the current statuses of the element. Various operational statuses are defined. Many of the enumeration ’ s values are self-explanatory. However, a few are not and are described here in more detail. " Stressed " indicates that the element is functioning, but needs attention. Examples of " Stressed " states are overload, overheated, and so on. " Predictive Failure " indicates that an element is functioning nominally but predicting a failure in the near future. " In Service " describes an element being configured, maintained, cleaned, or otherwise administered. " No Contact " indicates that the monitoring system has knowledge of this element, but has never been able to establish communications with it. " Lost Communication " indicates that the ManagedSystem Element is known to exist and has been contacted successfully in the past, but is currently unreachable. " Stopped " and " Aborted " are similar, although the former implies a clean and orderly stop, while the latter implies an abrupt stop where the state and configuration of the element might need to be updated. " Dormant " indicates that the element is inactive or quiesced. " Supporting Entity in Error " indicates that this element might be " OK " but that another element, on which it is dependent, is in error. An example is a network service or endpoint that cannot function due to lower-layer networking problems. " Completed " indicates that the element has completed its operation. This value should be combined with either OK, Error, or Degraded so that a client can tell if the complete operation Completed with OK (passed), Completed with Error (failed), or Completed with Degraded (the operation finished, but it did not complete OK or did not report an error). " Power Mode " indicates that the element has additional power model information contained in the Associated PowerManagementService association. OperationalStatus replaces the Status property on ManagedSystemElement to provide a consistent approach to enumerations, to address implementation needs for an array property, and to provide a migration path from today ’ s environment to the future. This change was not made earlier because it required the deprecated qualifier. Due to the widespread use of the existing Status property in management applications, it is strongly recommended that providers or instrumentation provide both the Status and OperationalStatus properties. Further, the first value of OperationalStatus should contain the primary status for the element. When instrumented, Status (because it is single-valued) should also provide the primary status of the element. CIM_ManagedSystemElement

ModelCorrespondencestringCIM_ManagedSystemElement.OperationalStatus CIM_ManagedSystemElement

Property Status Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringA string indicating the current status of the object. Various operational and non-operational statuses are defined. This property is deprecated in lieu of OperationalStatus, which includes the same semantics in its enumeration. This change is made for 3 reasons: 1) Status is more correctly defined as an array. This definition overcomes the limitation of describing status using a single value, when it is really a multi-valued property (for example, an element might be OK AND Stopped. 2) A MaxLen of 10 is too restrictive and leads to unclear enumerated values. 3) The change to a uint16 data type was discussed when CIM V2.0 was defined. However, existing V1.0 implementations used the string property and did not want to modify their code. Therefore, Status was grandfathered into the Schema. Use of the deprecated qualifier allows the maintenance of the existing property, but also permits an improved definition using OperationalStatus. CIM_ManagedSystemElement

Property HealthState Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringIndicates the current health of the element. This attribute expresses the health of this element but not necessarily that of its subcomponents. The possible values are 0 to 30, where 5 means the element is entirely healthy and 30 means the element is completely non-functional. The following continuum is defined: " Non-recoverable Error " (30) - The element has completely failed, and recovery is not possible. All functionality provided by this element has been lost. " Critical Failure " (25) - The element is non-functional and recovery might not be possible. " Major Failure " (20) - The element is failing. It is possible that some or all of the functionality of this component is degraded or not working. " Minor Failure " (15) - All functionality is available but some might be degraded. " Degraded/Warning " (10) - The element is in working order and all functionality is provided. However, the element is not working to the best of its abilities. For example, the element might not be operating at optimal performance or it might be reporting recoverable errors. " OK " (5) - The element is fully functional and is operating within normal operational parameters and without error. " Unknown " (0) - The implementation cannot report on HealthState at this time. DMTF has reserved the unused portion of the continuum for additional HealthStates in the future. CIM_ManagedSystemElement
