Property Description

● 26 = PC-98-Hireso
● .. = DMTF Reserved
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. Note that when EnabledState is set to 5
(Not Applicable), then this property has no meaning. Refer
to the EnabledState property description for explanations of
the values in the RequestedState enumeration. Unknown (0)
indicates the last requested state for the element is unknown.
NOTE: The value No Change (5) has been deprecated
instead of indicating the last requested state is Unknown
(0). If the last requested or desired state is unknown,
RequestedState should have the value Unknown (0), but
may have the value No Change (5).Offline (6) indicates
that the element has been requested to transition to the
Enabled but Offline EnabledState. There are two new
values in RequestedState that build on the statuses of
EnabledState. These are Reboot (10) and Reset (11).
Shut Down requests an orderly transition to the Disabled
state, and may involve removing power, to completely
erase any existing state. The Disabled state requests an
immediate disabling of the element, such that it will not
execute or accept any commands or processing requests.
This property is set as the result of a method invocation
(such as Start or StopService on CIM_Service), or can be
overridden and defined as WRITEable in a subclass. The
method approach is considered superior to a WRITEable
property, because it allows an explicit invocation of the
operation and the return of a result code. If knowledge
of the last RequestedState is not supported for the
EnabledLogicalElement, the pro.
Possible values are:
● 0 = Unknown
● 2 = Enabled
● 3 = Disabled
● 4 = Shut Down
● 5 = No Change
● 6 = Offline
● 7 = Test
● 8 = Deferred
● 9 = Quiesce
● 10 = Reboot—Refers to doing a Shut Down and then
moving to an Enabled state.
● 11 = Reset—Indicates that the element is first Disabled
and then Enabled.
● 12 = Not Applicable
● .. = DMTF Reserved
● 32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
