Class CIM_CompoundPolicyAction Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Version string 2.6.0 CIM_CompoundPolicyAction Description string CompoundPolicyAction is used to represent an expression consisting of an ordered sequence of action terms. Each action term is represented as a subclass of the PolicyAction class. Compound actions are constructed by associating dependent action terms together using the PolicyActionInPolicyAction aggregation. CIM_CompoundPolicyAction Description string A class representing a rule-specific or reusable policy action to be performed if the PolicyConditions for a Policy Rule evaluate to TRUE. Since all operational details of a PolicyAction are provided in subclasses of this object, this class is abstract. CIM_PolicyAction Description string An abstract class defining the common properties of the policy managed elements derived from CIM_Policy. The subclasses are used to create rules and groups of rules that work together to form a coherent set of policies within an administrative domain or set of domains. CIM_Policy 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 SequencedActions Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string This property gives a policy administrator a way of specifying how the ordering of the PolicyActions associated with this PolicyRule is to be interpreted. Three values are supported: o mandatory(1): Do the actions in the indicated order, or don ’ t do them at all. o recommended(2): Do the actions in the indicated order if you can, but if you can ’ t do them in this order, do them in another order if you can. o dontCare(3): Do them -- I don ’ t care about the order. The default value is 3 ( " DontCare " ). CIM_CompoundPolicyAction ValueMap string [See below.] CIM_CompoundPolicyAction Values string Mandatory

Property ExecutionStrategy Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string ExecutionStrategy defines the strategy to be used in executing the sequenced actions aggregated by this CompoundPolicyAction. There are three execution strategies: Do Until Success - execute actions according to predefined order, until successful execution of a single action. Do All - execute ALL actions which are part of the modeled set, according to their predefined order. Continue doing this, even if one or more of the actions fails. Do Until Failure - execute actions according to predefined order, until the first failure in execution of an action instance. The default value is 2 ( " Do All " ).

Property SystemCreationClassName Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Key boolean true CIM_PolicyAction Description string The name of the class or the subclass used in the creation of the System object in whose scope this PolicyAction is defined. This property helps to identify the System object in whose scope this instance of PolicyAction exists. For a rule-specific PolicyAction, this is the System in whose context the PolicyRule is defined. For a reusable PolicyAction, this is the instance of PolicyRepository (which is a subclass of System) that holds the Action. Note that this property, and the analogous property SystemName, do not represent propagated keys from an instance of the class System. Instead, they are properties defined in the context of this class, which repeat the values from the instance of System to which this PolicyAction is related, either directly via the PolicyActionInPolicyRepository association or indirectly via the PolicyActionInPolicyRule aggregation. CIM_PolicyAction MaxLen uint32 256 CIM_PolicyAction
Property SystemName Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Key boolean true CIM_PolicyAction Description string The name of the System object in whose scope this PolicyAction is defined. This property completes the identification of the System object in whose scope this instance of PolicyAction exists. For a rule-specific PolicyAction, this is the System in whose context the PolicyRule is defined. For a reusable PolicyAction, this is the instance of PolicyRepository (which is a subclass of System) that holds the Action. CIM_PolicyAction MaxLen uint32 256 CIM_PolicyAction
Property PolicyRuleCreationClassName Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Key boolean true CIM_PolicyAction Description string For a rule-specific PolicyAction, the CreationClassName of the PolicyRule object with which this Action is associated. For a reusable PolicyAction, a special value, ’ NO RULE ’ , should be used to indicate that this Action is reusable and not associated with a single PolicyRule. CIM_PolicyAction MaxLen uint32 256 CIM_PolicyAction
Property PolicyRuleName Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Key boolean true CIM_PolicyAction Description string For a rule-specific PolicyAction, the name of the PolicyRule object with which this Action is associated. For a reusable PolicyAction, a special value, ’ NO RULE ’ , should be used to indicate that this Action is reusable and not associated with a single PolicyRule. CIM_PolicyAction MaxLen uint32 256 CIM_PolicyAction
Property CreationClassName Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Key boolean true CIM_PolicyAction Description string CreationClassName indicates the name of the class or the subclass used in the creation of an instance. When used with the other key properties of this class, this property allows all instances of this class and its subclasses to be uniquely identified. CIM_PolicyAction MaxLen uint32 256 CIM_PolicyAction
Property PolicyActionName Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Key boolean true CIM_PolicyAction Description string A user-friendly name of this PolicyAction. CIM_PolicyAction MaxLen uint32 256 CIM_PolicyAction
Property DoActionLogging Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string DoActionLogging causes a log message to be generated when the action is performed. CIM_PolicyAction
Property CommonName Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string A user-friendly name of this policy-related object. CIM_Policy
Property PolicyKeywords Qualifiers Name Type Value From Class Description string An array of keywords for characterizing / categorizing policy objects. Keywords are of one of two types: - Keywords defined in this and other MOFs, or in DMTF white papers. These keywords provide a vendor- independent, installation-independent way of characterizing policy objects. - Installation-dependent keywords for characterizing policy objects. Examples include ’ Engineering ’ , ’ Billing ’ , and ’ Review in December 2000 ’ . This MOF defines the following keywords: ’ UNKNOWN ’ , ’ CONFIGURATION ’ , ’ USAGE ’ , ’ SECURITY ’ , ’ SERVICE ’ , ’ MOTIVATIONAL ’ , ’ INSTALLATION ’ , and ’ EVENT ’ . These concepts are self-explanatory and are further discussed in the SLA/Policy White Paper. One additional keyword is defined: ’ POLICY ’ . The role of this keyword is to identify policy-related instances that may not be otherwise identifiable, in some implementations. The keyword ’ POLICY ’ is NOT mutually exclusive of the other keywords specified above. CIM_Policy
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
