Class Declaration Attributes Name Value NAME CIM_Error
Class CIM_Error Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Indication boolean true CIM_Error Experimental boolean true CIM_Error Exception boolean true CIM_Error Version string 2.8.1000 CIM_Error Description string CIM_Error is a specialized class that contains information about the severity, cause, recommended actions and other data related to the failure of a CIM Operation. Instances of this type MAY be included as part of the response to a CIM Operation. CIM_Errors like CIM_Indications do not persist, and therefore do not have keys. Currently, this is only allowed by defining a concrete class with the Indication qualifier. Until the CIM Specification is modified to allow other concrete classes without keys, the CIM_Error class MUST be qualified by both Indication and Exception. After this, the Indication qualifier can be removed. CIM_Error
Property Qualifiers
Property ErrorType Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string Primary classification of the error. The following values are defined: 2 - Communications Error. Errors of this type are principally associated with the procedures and/or processes required to convey information from one point to another. 3 - Quality of Service Error. Errors of this type are principally associated with failures that result in reduced functionality or performance. 4 - Software Error. Error of this type are principally associated with a software or processing fault. 5 - Hardware Error. Errors of this type are principally associated with an equipment or hardware failure. 6 - Environmental Error. Errors of this type are principally associated with a failure condition relating the to facility, or other environmental considerations. 7 - Security Error. Errors of this type are associated with security violations, detection of viruses, and similar issues. 8 - Oversubscription Error. Errors of this type are principally associated with the failure to allocate sufficient resources to complete the operation. 9 - Unavailable Resource Error. Errors of this type are principally associated with the failure to access a required resource. 10 -Unsupported Operation Error. Errors of this type are principally associated with requests that are not supported. CIM_Error ValueMap string [See below.] CIM_Error Values string Unknown

Property CIMStatusCode Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Required boolean true CIM_Error Description string The CIM status code that characterizes this instance. This property defines the status codes that MAY be return by a conforming CIM Server or Listener. Note that not all status codes are valid for each operation. The specification for each operation SHOULD define the status codes that may be returned by that operation. The following values for CIM status code are defined: 1 - CIM_ERR_FAILED.

The requested operation is not supported. 8 - CIM_ERR_CLASS_HAS_CHILDREN. Operation cannot be carried out on this class since it has instances. 9 - CIM_ERR_CLASS_HAS_INSTANCES. Operation cannot be carried out on this class since it has instances. 10 - CIM_ERR_INVALID_SUPERCLASS. Operation cannot be carried out since the specified superclass does not exist. 11 - CIM_ERR_ALREADY_EXISTS. Operation cannot be carried out because an object already exists. 12 - CIM_ERR_NO_SUCH_PROPERTY. The specified Property does not exist. 13 - CIM_ERR_TYPE_MISMATCH. The value supplied is incompatible with the type. 14 - CIM_ERR_QUERY_LANGUAGE_NOT_SUPPORTED. The query language is not recognized or supported. 15 - CIM_ERR_INVALID_QUERY.
