Property Description
StructuredBootString
A string identifying the boot source using the format <OrgID>:<identifier>:<index>, in
which neither<OrgID>, <identifier> or <index> contains a colon (:). The value of <OrgID>is a
copyrighted, trademarked or otherwise unique name that is owned by the entity defining the
<identifier>, or is a registered ID that is assigned to the entity by a recognized global
authority. For DMTF defined identifiers, the <OrgID> is set to CIM.
The <identifiers> are:
Floppy
Hard-Disk
CD/DVD
Network
PCMCIA
USB
The value of <index> is a non-zero integer.

Property Description
ElementName
The user-friendly name for this instance of SettingData. In addition, the user-friendly name
can be used as an index property for a search or query.
NOTE: The name does not have to be unique within a namespace.
InstanceID
Within the scope of the instantiating Namespace, InstanceID opaquely and uniquely
identifies an instance of this class. To ensure uniqueness within the NameSpace, the value
of InstanceID should be constructed using the following preferred algorithm: <OrgID> :
<LocalID> Where <OrgID> and <LocalID> are separated by a colon (:), and where <OrgID>
must include a copyrighted, trademarked, or otherwise unique name that is owned by the
business entity that is creating or defining the InstanceID or that is a registered ID assigned
to the business entity by a recognized global authority. (This requirement is similar to the
<Schema Name>_<Class Name>structure of Schema class names.) In addition, to ensure
uniqueness, <OrgID> must not contain a colon (:). When using this algorithm, the first colon
to appear in InstanceID must appear between <OrgID> and <LocalID>. <LocalID> is chosen
by the business entity and should not be reused to identify different underlying (real-world)
elements. If the above preferred algorithm is not used, the defining entity must assure that
the resulting InstanceID is not reused across any InstanceIDs produced by this or other
providers for the NameSpace of this instance. For DMTF-defined instances, the preferred
algorithm must be used with the <OrgID> set to CIM.
ChangeBootOrder (Method)
This method is called to change the boot order within a boot configuration. An ordered
array of BootSourceSetting instances is passed to this method. Each BootSourceSetting
instance MUST already be associated with this BootConfigSetting instance via an instance
of OrderedComponent. If not, the implementation MUST return a value of Invalid
Parameter. Upon execution of this method, the value of the AssignedSequence property
on each instance of OrderedComponent will be updated such that the values are
monotonically increasing in correlation with the position of the referenced
BootSourceSetting instance in the source input parameter. That is, the first position in the
array will have the lowest value for AssignedSequence. The second position will have the
second lowest value, and so on. For BootSourceSetting instances which are associated
with the BootConfigSetting instance via OrderedComponent and not present in the input
array, the AssignedSequence property on the OrderedComponent association will be
assigned a value of 0.
