Class Declaration Attributes Name Value SUPERCLASS CIM_LogicalElement NAME CIM_UnitOfWorkDefinition
Class CIM_UnitOfWorkDefinition Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Version string 2.7.0 CIM_UnitOfWorkDefinition Description string A LogicalElement that describes units of work (e.g. transactions). This class represents the definitional components of a unit of work, and not the unit itself. CIM_UnitOfWorkDefinition Description string CIM_LogicalElement is a base class for all the components of a System that represent abstract system components, such as Files, Processes, or LogicalDevices. CIM_LogicalElement Description string CIM_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 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 Name Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Override string Name CIM_UnitOfWorkDefinition Description string The name of the Definition. This name does not have to be unique, but should be descriptive. It may contain blanks. CIM_UnitOfWorkDefinition MaxLen uint32 1024 CIM_UnitOfWorkDefinition
Property Context Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string A free format string describing the context of the defined UnitOfWork. For example an ’ Add Order ’ Unit could be defined in the context of a book ordering application, whereas another ’ Add Order ’ UnitOfWork could be defined for a computer ordering application. It may contain blanks. CIM_UnitOfWorkDefinition
Property Id Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Key boolean true CIM_UnitOfWorkDefinition Description string A 16 byte value that uniquely identifies the UnitOfWork Definition. The use of OSF UUID/GUIDs is recommended. CIM_UnitOfWorkDefinition MaxLen uint32 16 CIM_UnitOfWorkDefinition
Property TraceLevelTypeId Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string A 16 byte value that uniquely identifies the applied semantics and format of the trace levels used in the instances of UnitOfWork. The use of OSF UUID/GUIDs is recommended. TraceLevelTypeId allows management applications to efficiently discriminate between different trace level semantics of different UnitOfWorkDefinitions. I.E., CIM_UnitOfWork.TraceLevel = 1 may have different semantics if TraceLevelTypeId is different for the respective instances of UnitOfWork. It is not assumed that different trace level semantics are used within the same UnitOfWorkDefinition in order to promote uniform trace level encodings. (Keep in mind: At least the developers of the business actions represented by the same UnitOfWorkDefinition instance should strive to use the same trace level encoding, otherwise the administrator will have a hard time to figure out what detailed information to expect.) If the string is empty no traces are expected to be produced. If the string is not empty, an associated instance of TraceLevelType may be attached to the UnitOfWorkDefinition instance. Still, it is useful to incorporate TraceLevelTypeId into UnitOfWorkDefinition, to relate to an instance of TraceLevelType. The management application can more easily detect different trace level types.

Property InstallDate Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string A datetime value that indicates when the object was installed. Lack of a value does not indicate that the object is not installed. CIM_ManagedSystemElement MappingStrings string MIF.DMTF|ComponentID|001.5 CIM_ManagedSystemElement
Property Name Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string 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. CIM_ManagedSystemElement MaxLen uint32 1024 CIM_ManagedSystemElement
Property OperationalStatus Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string Indicates 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.

Property StatusDescriptions Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string Strings describing the various OperationalStatus array values. For example, if " Stopping " is the value assigned to OperationalStatus, then this property may contain an explanation as to why an object is being stopped. Note that entries in this array are correlated with those at the same array index in OperationalStatus. CIM_ManagedSystemElement ArrayType string Indexed CIM_ManagedSystemElement ModelCorrespondence string CIM_ManagedSystemElement.OperationalStatus CIM_ManagedSystemElement
Property Status Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string A 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.

Property HealthState Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string Indicates 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 ValueMap string [See below.] CIM_ManagedSystemElement Values string Unknown

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 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. Where Name exists and is not a Key (such as for instances of LogicalDevice), the same information can be present in both the Name and ElementName properties. CIM_ManagedElement
