Class CIM_BootSettingData Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Experimental boolean true CIM_BootSettingData Abstract boolean true CIM_BootSettingData Version string 2.10.0 CIM_BootSettingData Description string BootSettingData is a set of settings that apply to system boot. An example of usage of this class is to hold several BIOS, NVRAM, firmware or system settings, typically seen in the BIOS setup screens. These settings would need to be modified by the system as part of the boot process. Since, it is often not possible to intercept the boot process to apply these settings, users can set these a priori in the instance associated with the selected BootSourceSetting, thereby instructing the system to apply them during the next system reboot. CIM_BootSettingData Description string The SettingData class represents configuration-related and operational parameters for one or more ManagedElements. A ManagedElement can have multiple SettingData objects associated with it. The current operational values for the parameters of the element are reflected by properties in the Element itself or by properties in its associations. These properties do not have to be the same values that are present in the SettingData object. For example, a modem might have a SettingData baud rate of 56Kb/sec but be operating at 19.2Kb/sec. Note: The CIM_SettingData class is very similar to CIM_Setting, yet both classes are present in the model because many implementations have successfully used CIM_Setting. However, issues have arisen that could not be resolved without defining a new class. Therefore, until a new major release occurs, both classes will exist in the model. Refer to the Core White Paper for additional information. SettingData instances can be aggregated together into higher- level SettingData objects using ConcreteComponent associations. CIM_SettingData 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 OwningEntity Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string OwningEntity identifies the vendor or organization that defines the contained boot settings. In order to ensure uniqueness, the value of OwningEntity MUST be constructed using the following algorithm: < OrgID > [: < LocalID > ] where < OrgID > MUST include a copyrighted, trademarked or otherwise unique name that is owned by the entity creating/defining the BootSettingData, or is a registered ID that is assigned to the entity by a recognized global authority (This is similar to the < Schema Name > _ < Class Name > structure of Schema class names.) In addition, < OrgID > MUST NOT contain a colon ( ’ : ’ ). < LocalID > is optional and, when used, MUST be unique within the scope of the < OrgID > . When a < LocalID > is present, a colon MUST appear between < OrgID > and < LocalID > . For DMTF defined instances, the algorithm MUST be used with the < OrgID > set to ’ CIM ’ . CIM_BootSettingData
Property InstanceID Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Key boolean true CIM_SettingData Description string Within the scope of the instantiating Namespace, InstanceID opaquely and uniquely identifies an instance of this class. 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 that is creating or defining the InstanceID or that is a registered ID assigned to the business entity by a recognized global authority. (This requirement 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 reused to identify different underlying (real-world) elements. If the above " preferred " algorithm is not used, the defining entity must assure that the resulting InstanceID is not reused across any InstanceIDs produced by this or other providers for the NameSpace of this instance. For DMTF-defined instances, the " preferred " algorithm must be used with the < OrgID > set to CIM. CIM_SettingData
Property ElementName Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Required boolean true CIM_SettingData Override string ElementName CIM_SettingData Description string The user-friendly name for this instance of SettingData. In addition, the user-friendly name can be used as an index property for a search or query. (Note: The name does not have to be unique within a namespace.) CIM_SettingData
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
