Property Description
CanBeFRUed
Boolean that indicates whether this PhysicalElement can be
FRUed (TRUE) or not (FALSE).
CreationClassName
Indicates the name of the class or the subclass used in the
creation of an instance. When used with the other key
properties of this class, this property allows all instances of
this class and its subclasses to be uniquely identified.
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 sub
classed 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.
Manufacturer
The name of the organization responsible for producing the
PhysicalElement. This organization may be the entity from
where the Element is purchased, but this is not necessarily
true. The latter information is contained in the Vendor
property of CIM_Product.
Model
The name by which the PhysicalElement is generally known.
PartNumber
The part number assigned by the organization that is
responsible for producing or manufacturing the
PhysicalElement.
SerialNumber
A manufacturer-allocated number used to identify the
Physical Element.
SKU
The stock-keeping unit number for this PhysicalElement.
Tag
An arbitrary string that uniquely identifies the Physical
Element and serves as the key of the Element. The Tag
property can contain information such as asset tag or serial
number data. The key for PhysicalElement is placed very high
in the object hierarchy to independently identify the hardware
or entity, regardless of physical placement in or on Cabinets,
Adapters, and so on.
For example, a hotswappable or removable component can be
taken from its containing (scoping) Package and be
temporarily unused. The object still continues to exist and can
