Name
The Name property uniquely identifies the Service and provides an indication of the
functionality that is managed. This functionality is described in more detail in the Description
property of the object.
RequestedState
An integer enumeration that indicates the last requested or desired state for the element,
irrespective of the mechanism through which it was requested. The actual state of the
element is represented by EnabledState.
Possible values are:
• 0 = Unknown — Indicates that the last requested state for the element is unknown.
• 2 = Enabled
• 3 = Disabled
• 4 = Shut Down
• 5 = No Change
• 6 = Offline — Indicates that the element has been requested to transition to the
Enabled but Offline EnabledState.
• 7 = Test
• 8 = Deferred
• 9 = Quiesce
• 10 = Reboot — Refers to doing a Shut Down and then moving to an Enabled state.
• 11 = Reset — Indicates that the element is first Disabled and then Enabled.
• 12 = Not Applicable
• .. = DMTF Reserved
• 32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
This property is provided to compare the last requested and current enabled or disabled
states. Note that when EnabledState is set to 5 (Not Applicable), then this property has
no meaning. See the EnabledState property description for explanations of the values in the
RequestedState enumeration.
NOTE:
The value No Change (5) has been deprecated instead of indicating the
last requested state is Unknown (0). If the last requested or desired state is
unknown, RequestedState should have the value Unknown (0), but may have
the value No Change (5).
There are two new values in RequestedState that build on the statuses of EnabledState.
These are Reboot (10) and Reset (11). Shut Down requests an orderly transition to the
Disabled state, and may involve removing power, to completely erase any existing state.
The Disabled state requests an immediate disabling of the element, such that it will not
execute or accept any commands or processing requests.
