Property Description
• 4 = Shutting Down — Indicates that the
element is in the process of going to a disabled
state.
• 5 = Not Applicable — Indicates the element
does not support being enabled or disabled.
• 6 = Enabled but Offline — Indicates that the
element may be completing commands, and
will drop any new requests.
• 7 = In Test — Indicates that the element is in a

• 32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
For example, shutting down (value = 4) and
starting (value = 10) are transient states between
enabled and disabled.
HealthState
Indicates the current health of the element. This
attribute expresses the health of this element but
not necessarily that of its subcomponents.
Possible values are:
• 0 = Unknown — The implementation cannot
report on HealthState at this time. DMTF has
reserved the unused portion of the continuum
for additional HealthStates in the future.
• 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
