dcim_numericsensor Where ElementName like '%Temperature Sensor:%’ set
UpperThresholdNonCritical = 70
ValueFormulation Indicates the method used by the sensor to produce its reading. Possible values
are:
● 0 = Unknown
● 2 = Measured - Indicates the value is measured directly by the sensor.
● 3 = Derived - Indicates the value is derived from other measured values that are
not reported discretely by this sensor.
● .. = DMTF Reserved
● 32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved

SupportedThreshold
s
SupportedThresholds property is an array that contains the list of the
implemented thresholds: LowerThresholdNonCritical, UpperThresholdNonCritical,
LowerThresholdCritical, UpperThresholdCritical. When the implementation
does not support any of these threshold properties, the
CIM_NumericSensor.SupportedThresholds property shall be an empty array.
Windows, Linux
SettableThresholds SettableThresholds property is an array that contains the list of the settable
implemented thresholds: LowerThresholdNonCritical, UpperThresholdNonCritical.
The CIM_NumericSensor.SettableThresholds array shall contain the subset
of values in the CIM_NumericSensor.SupportedThresholds array. When the
implementation does not support any of the settable threshold properties, the
CIM_NumericSensor.SettableThresholds property shall be an empty array.

Table 32. Sensor
Property Description
Caption The Caption property is a short textual description (one- line string) of the object.
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.
CurrentState The current state indicated by the Sensor. This is always one of the
PossibleStates.
DeviceID An address or other identifying information used to uniquely name the LogicalDevice.
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.
EnabledDefault An enumerated value indicating an administrator's default or startup configuration
for the Enabled State of an element.
