Property Description
NOTE: 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.
PowerChangeCapabilities
An enumeration indicating the specific power-related capabilities of a
managed element. Since this is an array, multiple values may be
specified.
Possible values are:
• 0 = Unknown
• 1 = Other
• 2 = Power Saving Modes Entered Automatically — Indicates that a
managed element can change its power state based on usage or
other criteria
• 3 = Power State Settable — Indicates that the
RequestPowerStateChange method is supported
• 4 = Power Cycling Supported — Indicates that the
RequestPowerStateChange method can be invoked with the
PowerState input variable set to Power Cycle (Off Soft)
• 5 = Timed Power On Supported — Indicates that the
RequestPowerStateChange method can be invoked with the
PowerState input variable set to 'Power On' and the Time
parameter set to a specific date and time, or interval, for power
on.
• 6 = Off Hard Power Cycling Supported
• 7 = HW Reset Supported
• 8 = Graceful Shutdown Supported — Indicates that the managed
element can be sent a hardware signal requesting an orderly
shutdown prior to the requested power state change.
