HelpDesk
Name of the help desk that provides technical support for your
system;information provided by the help desk.
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.
