DCIM_ComputerSystem
Property Description
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 identied.
Dedicated
Enumeration indicating the purpose(s) for which the ComputerSystem is dedicated, if any,
and the functionality provided. For example, one could specify that the System is dedicated
to Print (value = 11) or acts as a Hub (value = 8).
Also, a value = 0 indicates this is a general purpose system, Not Dedicated but that it also
hosts Print (value = 11) or mobile phone Mobile User Device (value = 17) services.
A clarication is needed with respect to the value 17 (Mobile User Device). An example of a
dedicated user device is a mobile phone or a barcode scanner in a store that communicates
via radio frequency. These systems are quite limited in functionality and programmability, and
are not considered general purpose computing platforms. Alternately, an example of a
mobile system that is general purpose (that is, is NOT dedicated) is a hand-held computer.
Although limited in its programmability, new software can be downloaded and its
functionality expanded by the user.
The management scope of a Management Controller is typically a single managed system
in which it is contained.

2 = Other
3 = Storage
4 = Router
5 = Switch
6 = Layer 3 Switch
7 = Central Oce Switch
8 = Hub
