Property Description
● 16 = Supporting Entity in Error — Indicates that this
element may be OK but that another element, on which it
is dependent, is in error. An example is a network service
or endpoint that cannot function due to lower-layer
networking problems.
● 17 = Completed — Indicates that the element has
completed its operation. This value should be combined
with either OK, Error, or Degraded so that a client can tell
if the complete operation Completed with OK (passed),
Completed with Error (failed), or Completed with
Degraded (the operation finished, but it did not complete
OK or did not report an error).
● 18 = Power Mode — Indicates that the element has
additional power model information contained in the
Associated PowerManagementService association.
● .. = DMTF Reserved
● 0x8000.. = Vendor Reserved
OperationalStatus replaces the Status property on
ManagedSystemElement to provide a consistent approach to
enumerations, to address implementation needs for an array
property, and to provide a migration path from today's
environment to the future. This change was not made earlier
because it required the deprecated qualifier. Due to the
widespread use of the existing Status property in
management applications, it is strongly recommended that
providers or instrumentation provide both the Status and
OperationalStatus properties. Further, the first value of
OperationalStatus should contain the primary status for the
element. When instrumented, Status (because it is single-
valued) should also provide the primary status of the element.
OtherIdentifyingInfo
Captures data, in addition to DeviceID information, that could
be used to identify a LogicalDevice. For example, you could
use this property to hold the operating system's user-friendly
name for the Device.
PrimaryStatus
Provides a high level status value, intended to align with Red-
Yellow-Green type representation of status. It should be used
in conjunction with DetailedStatus to provide high level and
detailed health status of the ManagedElement and its
subcomponents.
Possible values are:
● 0 = Unknown — Indicates the implementation is in general
capable of returning this property, but is unable to do so at
this time.
● 1 = OK — Indicates the ManagedElement is functioning
normally.
● 2 = Degraded — Indicates the ManagedElement is
functioning below normal.
● 3 = Error — Indicates the ManagedElement is in an Error
condition.
● .. = DMTF Reserved
● 0x8000.. = Vendor Reserved
Primordial
If true, Primordial indicates that the containing System does
not have the ability to create or delete this operational
element. This is important because StorageExtents are
assembled into higher-level abstractions using the BasedOn
