Property Description
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.
Possible values are:
● 2 = Enabled
● 3 = Disabled
● 5 = Not Applicable
● 6 = Enabled but Offline
● 7 = No Default
● 9 = Quiesce
● .. = DMTF Reserved
● 32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
By default, the element is Enabled (value = 2).
EnabledState An integer enumeration that indicates the enabled and disabled states of an element.
It can also indicate the transitions between these requested states.
Possible values are:
● 0 = Unknown
● 1 = Other
● 2 = Enabled—Indicates that the element is or could be executing commands, will
process any queued commands, and queues new requests.
● 3 = Disabled—Indicates that the element will not run commands and drops any
new requests.
● 4 = Shutting Down—Indicates that the element is in the process of going to a
Disabled state.
● 5 = Not Applicable—Indicates that the element does not support being enabled
or disabled.
● 6 = Enabled but Offline—Indicates that the element may be completing
commands, and drops any new requests.
● 7 = In Test—Indicates that the element is in a test state.
● 8 = Deferred—Indicates that the element may be completing commands, but
queues any new requests.
● 9 = Quiesce—Indicates that the element is enabled but in a restricted mode.
● 10 = Starting—Indicates that the element is in the process of going to an
Enabled state. New requests are queued.
● 11..32767 = DMTF Reserved
● 32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
For example, shutting down (value = 4) and starting (value = 10) are transient states
between enabled and disabled.
RequestedState
An integer enumeration that indicates the last requested or desired state for the
element, irrespective of the mechanism through which it was requested. The actual
state of the element is represented by EnabledState. This property is provided to
compare the last requested and current enabled or disabled states.
Possible values are:
● 0 = Unknown—Indicates the last requested state for the element is unknown.
● 2 = Enabled
● 3 = Disabled
