Class CIM_StorageSetting Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Version string 2.11.0 CIM_StorageSetting Description string StorageSetting is roughly equivalent to a Service Level Agreement (SLA) It defines the characteristics, qualities of service and goals when used in a CreateOrModifyElement FromStoragePool or CreateOrModifyStoragePool method in the StorageConfigurationService. It specifies a series of properties with Maximum and Minimum values that define the (inclusive) bounds that the object should maintain. Note that the setting is associated to a StorageVolume or LogicalDisk, using ElementSetting. The use of these properties differs depending on whether the StorageSetting instance is being used as a goal for a configuration operation or being used as a Service Level Agreement for a created Volume. In addition the properties fall into two categories: The QOS properties(PackageRedundancy, Data Redundancy, & NoSinglePointOfFailure) and the Detailed RAID properties(ExtentStripeLength, ParityLayout, and UserDataStripeDepth). In a Setting used as a goal, the QOS properties are required as a set; The Detailed RAID properties(if supported as indicated by the scoping StorageCapabilities instance) may be used optionally in any combination. The implementation MUST supply it ’ s own best practice in the case where one or more supported RAID properties are not supplied. In this situation the use of StorageSettingWithHints can be useful to provide direction to the implementation. In a Setting used as a service agreement for a Volume, the QOS properties reflect the Service Level Agreement, with goal, min, & max. The actual current service level is exposed by corresponding values in StorageExtent. The Detailed RAID properties, by contrast, reflect specific values that reflect the RAID construction of the Volume. Only the primary values are meaningful; Min and Max are set to match. Certain StorageSetting instances may be classed as " Fixed " , by using the " ChangeableType " property, indicating the setting is preset. Such settings are used when the possible setting variations are low enough to be instantiated in their entirety. The StorageCapabilities " CreateSetting " method MAY NOT be used to return settings that are not changeable. Other StorageSetting instances are created using the " CreateSetting " method. If the capabilities specifies ranges, then the setting can be used by a client to narrow the range to particular values within the range. In other words, the capabilities MAY be broad, but the related setting MUST be as capable or less capable, that is more narrowly defined, before it is used to create or modify resources. These created StorageSetting instances MUST have their " ChangeableType " property = 1, " Changeable - Transient " . GeneratedSettings MAY not remain after the restart or reset of the implementation. They may be deleted by implementation at any time. A reasonable minimal time to retain the generated transient settings is five minutes, although there is no minimal retention time. CIM_StorageSetting 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 ExtentStripeLength Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Write boolean true CIM_StorageSetting Description string ExtentStripeLength describes the number of underlying StorageExtents across which data is striped in the common striping-based storage organizations. This is also known as the number of ’ members ’ or ’ columns ’ . When used in a goal setting instance, ExtentStripeLength is the optimal desired value. The bounds (max and min) for Stripe Length are defined using the properties ExtentStripeLengthMax and ExtentStripeLengthMin. ExtentStripeLength MUST be set to NULL if the scoping StorageCapablities indicates that it is not supported in this context. ExtentStripeLength can be used in conjunction with CreateOrModifyElementFromELements to explicitly configure storage. An example would be RAID 0+1 with mirroring two stripe sets, each set being three wide. In this case CreateOrModifyElementFromElements would be passed a goal setting with DataRedundancy = 2 and ExtentStripeLength = 3. The size of the InElements array would be 6 and would contain the StorageExtents to be used to construct the StorageElement as a RAID 0+1. ExtentStripeLengthMin and ExtentStripeLengthMax are meaningless and wouldbe set to NULL. If the property is supported, and is part of StorageSettingWithHints it MAY be set to NULL. If used it will constrain the effects of Hint selections. When used in a Setting instance associated to a Volume, this property indicates the specific value that the Volume was created with, and ExtentStripeLengthMin and ExtentStripeLengthMax will be set to the same specific value.

Property UserDataStripeDepth Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Write boolean true CIM_StorageSetting Description string UserDataStripeDepth describes the number of bytes forming a strip in common striping-based storage organizations. The strip is defined as the size of the portion of a stripe that lies on one extent. Thus, ExtentStripeLength * UserDataStripeDepth will yield the size of one stripe of user data. When used in a goal setting instance, UserDataStripeDepth is the optimal desired value. The bounds (max and min) for Stripe Depth are defined using the properties UserDataStripeDepthMax and UserDataStripeDepthMin. UserDataStripeDepth MUST be set to NULL if the scoping StorageCapablities indicates that it is not supported in this context. If the property is supported, and is part of StorageSettingWithHints it MAY be set to NULL. If used it will constrain the effects of Hint selections.

Property SpaceLimit Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string SpaceLimit is the consumption limit for the allocated storage element from all associated StoragePools. If asserted, then the assumption is that the storage element can grow, (for instance an element representing the storage for a delta replica). If SpaceLimit is greater than zero, the space consumed by the storage element shall not exceed the value of SpaceLimit. If SpaceLimit = 0 (the default) then no limits are asserted on the amount of space consumed. CIM_StorageSetting Units string Bytes CIM_StorageSetting
Property SpaceLimitWarningThreshold Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string If the associated storage element may dynamically consume an increasing amount of space and a space limit is enforced on the element, then a non-zero warning threshold percentage indicates when a warning indication should be generated based on the total amount of space consumed being > = (SpaceLimit*SpaceLimitWarningThreshold)/100.

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
