Property Description
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.
SupportedAsynchronousAction
s
Enumeration indicating what operations will be executed as
asynchronous jobs. If an operation is included in both this and
SupportedSynchronousActions then the underlying implementation is
indicating that it may or may not create a job. If a Job is created, then
the methods in SoftwareInstallationService return a reference to that
Job as the Job parameter.
Possible values are:
• 2 = Defer target/system reset
• 3 = Force installation
• 4 = Install
• 5 = Update
• 6 = Repair
• 7 = Reboot
• 8 = Password
• 9 = Uninstall
• 10 = Log
• 11 = SilentMode
• 12 = AdministrativeMode
• .. = DMTF Reserved
• 32768..65535 = Vendor Specific
SupportedInstallOptions
An enumeration indicating the specific install related
optionssupported by this service. Since this is an array, multiple values
may be specified. See the InstallOptions parameter of
theSoftwareInstallationService.InstallFromSoftwareIdentity method
for the description of these values.
Possible values are:
• 2 = Defer target/system reset
• 3 = Force installation
• 4 = Install
• 5 = Update
• 6 = Repair
• 7 = Reboot
• 8 = Password
