Property Description
retrieving the instances of CIM_BaseMetricValue and sorting them
according to their TimeStamp.
Volatile
If true, Volatile indicates that the value for the next point in time may
use the same object and just change its properties (such as the value
or timestamp). If false, the existing objects remain unchanged and a
new object is created for the new point in time.
DCIM_LogEntry
Property Description
CreationTimeStamp
A LogEntry may include a timestamp for the entry.
ElementName
A user-friendly name for the object. This property allows each
instance to define a user-friendly name in addition to its key
properties, identity data, and description information.
NOTE: The Name property of ManagedSystemElement is also
defined as a user-friendly name. But, it is often subclassed to be
a Key. It is not reasonable that the same property can convey
both identity and a user-friendly name, without inconsistencies.
Where Name exists and is not a Key (such as for instances of
LogicalDevice), the same information can be present in both the
Name and ElementName properties.
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.
RecordData
A string containing LogRecord data. If the corresponding
RecordFormat property is <empty>, or cannot be parsed according to
the recommended format, RecordData should be interpreted as a
free-form string. If the RecordFormat property contains parseable
format information (as recommended in the RecordFormat
