Property Description
• 32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
HealthState
Indicates the current health of the element. This attribute expresses
the health of this element but not necessarily that of its
subcomponents.
DMTF has reserved the unused portion of the continuum for
additional HealthStates in the future.
Possible values are:
• 0 = Unknown — The implementation cannot report on
HealthState at this time.
• 5 = OK — The element is fully functional and is operating within
normal operational parameters and without error.
• 10 = Degraded/Warning — The element is in working order and all
functionality is provided. However, the element is not working to
the best of its abilities. For example, the element may not be
operating at optimal performance or it may be reporting
recoverable errors.
• 15 = Minor failure — All functionality is available but some may be
degraded.
• 20 = Major failure — The element is failing. It is possible that some
or all of the functionality of this component is degraded or not
working.
• 25 = Critical failure — The element is non-functional and recovery
may not be possible.
• 30 = Non-recoverable error — The element has completely failed,
and recovery is not possible. All functionality provided by this
element has been lost.
• .. = DMTF Reserved
IdentifyingDescriptions
An array of free-form strings providing explanations and details
behind the entries in the OtherIdentifying Info array. Note, each entry
of this array is related to the entry in OtherIdentifyingInfo that is
located at the same index.
Name
The inherited Name serves as the key of a system instance in an
enterprise environment.
OperationalStatus
Indicates the current statuses of the element. Various operational
statuses are defined. Many of the enumeration's values are self-
explanatory.
Possible values are:
• 0 = Unknown
• 1 = Other
• 2 = OK
• 3 = Degraded
• 4 = Stressed - Indicates that the element is functioning, but needs
attention. Examples of Stressed states are overload, overheated,
and so on.
• 5 = Predictive Failure — Indicates that an element is functioning
nominally but predicting a failure in the near future.
