Proles for Dell Command | Monitor 10.1.0
Dell Command | Monitor running on Microsoft Windows operating system uses industry standard proles to represent the management
data provided. These proles are implemented either as dened or in some cases have Dell-specic extensions.
The following is a list of proles that are implemented for Dell Command | Monitor for Windows:
Non-extended proles:
• Base Metrics — The Base Metrics Prole is a component prole that denes the minimum object model needed to provide dynamic
metrics associated to existing managed element s and related associations.
• Battery — The Battery Prole extends the management capabilities of referencing proles by adding the capability to represent
batteries for manageability. The battery as a logical device is modeled as referencing the battery physical package for physical asset
information, the sensor for sensor-reading information, and the prole registration for the schema implementation version information.
• BIOS Management — The BIOS Management Prole extends the management capabilities of referencing proles by adding the
capability to represent and congure BIOS settings, such as a Network Controller or IDE Controller. The individual BIOS settings’
relationship with a respective device is also described.
• Boot Control — The Boot Control Prole describes the classes, associations, properties, and methods used to manage the boot control
congurations of a physical or virtual computer system.
• CPU — The CPU Prole extends the management capability of referencing proles by adding the capability to represent CPUs or
processors in a managed system . CPU cache memory and associations with CPU physical aspects, as well as prole implementation
version information, are modeled in this prole.
• Fan — The Fan Prole extends the management capabilities of referencing proles by adding the capability to represent fans for
manageability and describe fans in a redundant conguration. The fan as a logical device is modeled as referencing the fan physical
package for physical asset information, a sensor for sensor reading information.
• Indications — The Indications Prole denes the CIM elements that are used to subscribe for indications of unsolicited events, to
advertise the possible indications, and to represent indications used to report events in a managed system.
• IP Interface — The IP Interface Prole extends the management capability of referencing proles by adding the capability to represent
an IP interface of a managed system.
• OS Status — The OS Status Prole extends the management capabilities of referencing proles by adding the capability to perform
basic management of operating systems installed on a system.
• PCI Device — The PCI Device Prole extends the management capabilities of referencing proles by adding the capability to represent
PCI devices for manageability, including PCI, PCI-X, PCI Express, bridge and switch devices.
• Physical Asset — The Physical Asset Prole extends the management capability of the referencing proles by adding the capability to
describe the physical aspects of logical elements that the implementation is instantiating.
• Power State Management — The Power State Management Prole describes the classes, associations, properties, and methods used
to manage the power of a computer system.
• Prole Registration — The Prole Registration extends the management capability of the referencing proles by adding the capability
to describe the registration and versioning of CIM proles that are implemented by CIM based system and component management
instrumentations.
• RecordLog — The Record Log Prole is an autonomous prole that provides the management capabilities to represent logs of a
managed system element.
• Sensors — The Sensors Prole extends the management capabilities of referencing proles by adding the capability to represent
sensors.
• Software Inventory — The Software Inventory Prole describes the CIM schema elements required to provide an inventory of installed
BIOS, rmware, drivers, and related software in a managed system.
• Device Tray — The Device Tray Prole is a component prole for modeling a device tray of a modular system.
• Software Update — The Software Update Prole describes the classes, associations, properties, and methods used to support the
installation and update of BIOS, rmware, drivers and related software on a managed element within a managed system.
• Base Desktop and Mobile — The Base Desktop and Mobile Prole is an autonomous prole that denes the classes used to describe
monolithic desktop or mobile computer hardware and related software. The scope of this prole is limited to monolithic desktop or
mobile computer hardware and related software that are directly realized in physical components.
