TransitioningToState
Indicates the target state to which the instance is transitioning.
Possible values are:
• 0 = Unknown
• 2 = Enabled
• 3 = Disabled
• 4 = Shut Down
• 5 = No Change — Indicates that no transition is in progress.

• 7 = Test
• 8 = Defer
• 9 = Quiesce
• 10 = Reboot
• 11 = Reset

Property Description
CreationClassName
Indicates the name of the class or the subclass that is 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.
ElementName
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: 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.
EnabledDefault
An enumerated value indicating an administrator's default or startup configuration for the
Enabled State of an element. By default, the element is Enabled (value = 2).
Possible values are:
• 2 = Enabled
• 3 = Disabled
• 5 = Not Applicable
• 6 = Enabled but Offline
• 7 = No Default
• 9 = Quiesce
• .. = DMTF Reserved
• 32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
EnabledState
An integer enumeration that indicates the enabled and disabled states of an element. It can
also indicate the transitions between these requested states. For example, shutting down
(value = 4) and starting (value = 10) are transient states between enabled and disabled.
