Class CIM_InstMethodCall Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Version string 2.8.1000 CIM_InstMethodCall Description string CIM_InstMethodCall notifies when an instance ’ s method is invoked. CIM_InstMethodCall Indication boolean true CIM_InstMethodCall Description string CIM_InstIndication is an abstract superclass describing changes to instances. Subclasses represent specific types of change notifications, such as instance creation, deletion and modification. CIM_InstIndication Indication boolean true CIM_InstIndication Indication boolean true CIM_Indication Description string CIM_Indication is the abstract root class for all notifications about changes in schema, objects and their data, and about events detected by providers and instrumentation. Subclasses represent specific types of notifications. To receive an Indication, a consumer (or subscriber) must create an instance of CIM_IndicationFilter describing the criteria of the notification, an instance of CIM_ListenerDestination describing the delivery of the notification, and an instance of CIM_IndicationSubscription associating the Filter and Handler.

Property Qualifiers
Property MethodName Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Required boolean true CIM_InstMethodCall Description string The name of the method invoked. CIM_InstMethodCall
Property MethodParameters Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string The parameters of the method, formatted as an EmbeddedObject (with a predefined class name of " __MethodParameters " . CIM_InstMethodCall EmbeddedObject boolean true CIM_InstMethodCall
Property ReturnValue Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string ReturnValue ’ s data is dependent on the PreCall property. When PreCall is TRUE, this property is NULL describing that there is no method return value (since the method has not yet executed). When PreCall is FALSE, ReturnValue contains a string representation of the method ’ s return value. CIM_InstMethodCall ModelCorrespondence string CIM_InstMethodCall.PreCall

Property Error Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string Error ’ s data is dependent on the PreCall property. When PreCall is TRUE, this property is NULL describing that there is no method Error instances (since the method has not yet executed). When PreCall is FALSE, Error contains an array of zero or more entries containing CIM_ERROR instances represented as an array of Embedded Instances. CIM_InstMethodCall EmbeddedInstance string CIM_Error CIM_InstMethodCall ModelCorrespondence string CIM_InstMethodCall.PreCall
CIM_InstMethodCall.ReturnValueCIM_InstMethodCall
Property PreCall Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Required boolean true CIM_InstMethodCall Description string Boolean indicating whether the Indication is sent before the method begins executing (TRUE) or when the method completes (FALSE). When TRUE, the inherited property SourceInstance contains the value of the instance (the properties defined by the Filter ’ s Query clause), before execution of the method. When PreCall is FALSE, SourceInstance embeds the instance as it appears after the completion of the method. CIM_InstMethodCall
Property SourceInstance Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Required boolean true CIM_InstIndication Description string A copy of the instance that changed to generate the Indication. SourceInstance contains the current values of the properties selected by the Indication Filter ’ s Query. In the case of CIM_InstDeletion, the property values are copied before the instance is deleted. CIM_InstIndication EmbeddedObject boolean true CIM_InstIndication
Property SourceInstanceModelPath Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string The Model Path of the SourceInstance. The following format MUST be used to encode the Model Path: < NamespacePath > : < ClassName > . < Prop1 > = " < Value1 > " , < Prop2 > = " < Value2 > " , ... CIM_InstIndication ModelCorrespondence string CIM_InstIndication.SourceInstance CIM_InstIndication
Property SourceInstanceHost Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string The host name or IP address of the SourceInstance. CIM_InstIndication ModelCorrespondence string CIM_InstIndication.SourceInstance CIM_InstIndication
Property IndicationIdentifier Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string An identifier for the Indication. This property is similar to a key value in that it can be used for identification, when correlating Indications (see the CorrelatedIndications array). Its value SHOULD be unique as long as Alert correlations are reported, but MAY be reused or left NULL if no future Indications will reference it in their CorrelatedIndications array. CIM_Indication MappingStrings string Recommendation.ITU|X733.Notification identifier CIM_Indication
Property CorrelatedIndications Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string A list of IndicationIdentifiers whose notifications are correlated with (related to) this one. CIM_Indication MappingStrings string Recommendation.ITU|X733.Correlated notifications CIM_Indication
Property IndicationTime Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string The time and date of creation of the Indication. The property may be set to NULL if the entity creating the Indication is not capable of determining this information. Note that IndicationTime may be the same for two Indications that are generated in rapid succession. CIM_Indication
Property PerceivedSeverity Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string An enumerated value that describes the severity of the Indication from the notifier ’ s point of view: 1 - Other, by CIM convention, is used to indicate that the Severity ’ s value can be found in the OtherSeverity property. 3 - Degraded/Warning should be used when its appropriate to let the user decide if action is needed. 4 - Minor should be used to indicate action is needed, but the situation is not serious at this time. 5 - Major should be used to indicate action is needed NOW. 6 - Critical should be used to indicate action is needed NOW and the scope is broad (perhaps an imminent outage to a critical resource will result). 7 - Fatal/NonRecoverable should be used to indicate an error occurred, but it ’ s too late to take remedial action. 2 and 0 - Information and Unknown (respectively) follow common usage. Literally, the Indication is purely informational or its severity is simply unknown. CIM_Indication ValueMap string [See below.] CIM_Indication Values string Unknown
