Class CIM_OSVersionCheck Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Version string 2.6.0 CIM_OSVersionCheck Description string The OSVersionCheck class specifies the versions of the operating system that can support/execute this Software Element. The operating system itself (whose version should be validated) is defined in the TargetOperatingSystem property of the Check ’ s scoping SoftwareElement. This Check can be for a specific, minimum, maximum or a range of releases of an OS. To identify a specific version of the OS, the minimum and maximum versions must be the same. To specify a minimum, only the minimum version needs to be defined. To specify a maximum version, only the maximum version needs to be defined. To specify a range, both minimum and maximum versions need to be defined. The data gathered from the Check and SoftwareElement objects are compared with the corresponding details found in the CIM_OperatingSystem object (referenced by the InstalledOS association), for the CIM_ComputerSystem object that defines the environment. The OSType property of CIM_OperatingSystem must match the value of CIM_SoftwareElement.TargetOperating System. Also, the OS ’ version information should be within the range of CIM_OSVersionCheck.Minimum/MaximumValue properties. Note that all the operating systems on the relevant computer do not need to satisfy the Check. CIM_OSVersionCheck Description string A CIM_Check is a condition or characteristic that is expected to be true in an environment defined or scoped by an instance of a CIM_ComputerSystem. The Checks associated with a particular SoftwareElement are organized into one of two groups using the Phase property of the CIM_SoftwareElementChecks association. Conditions that are expected to be true when a SoftwareElement is in a particular state and environment are known as ’ in-state ’ conditions. Conditions that need to be satisfied in order to transition the SoftwareElement to its next state are known as ’ next-state ’ conditions. A CIM_ComputerSystem object represents the environment in which CIM_SoftwareElements are already deployed/installed or into which the elements will be deployed/installed. For the case in which an element is already installed, the CIM_InstalledSoftwareElement association identifies the CIM_ComputerSystem object that represents the " environment " . When a SoftwareElement is being deployed for installation on a ComputerSystem, that system is the target of the Check and is identified using the TargetSystem reference of the InvokeOnSystem method. CIM_Check 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 CheckID Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Key boolean true CIM_Check Description string An identifier used in conjunction with other keys to uniquely identify the Check. CIM_Check MaxLen uint32 256 CIM_Check
Property CheckMode Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string The CheckMode property is used to indicate whether the condition is expected to exist or not exist in the environment. When the value is True, the condition is expected to exist (e.g., a file is expected to be on a system), so the Invoke methods are expected to return True. When the value is False, the condition is not expected to exist (e.g., a file is not to be on a system), so the Invoke methods are expected to return False. CIM_Check
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

Method Invoke Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string The Invoke method evaluates this Check. The details of the evaluation are described by the specific subclasses of CIM_Check. When the SoftwareElement being checked is already installed, the CIM_InstalledSoftwareElement association identifies the CIM_ComputerSystem in whose context the Invoke is executed. If this association is not in place, then the InvokeOnSystem method should be used - since it identifies the TargetSystem as an input parameter of the method. The results of the Invoke method are based on the return value. A zero is returned if the condition is satisfied. A one is returned if the method is not supported. Any other value indicates the condition is not satisfied. CIM_Check
Method InvokeOnSystem Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string The InvokeOnSystem method evaluates this Check. The details of the evaluation are described by the specific subclasses of CIM_Check. The method ’ s TargetSystem input parameter specifies the ComputerSystem in whose context the method is invoked. The results of the InvokeOnSystem method are based on the return value. A zero is returned if the condition is satisfied. A one is returned if the method is not supported. Any other value indicates the condition is not satisfied. CIM_Check Parameters
