Table 21. SerialPort (continued)
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 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.
PortType
PortType is defined to force consistent naming of the type
property in subclasses and to guarantee unique enum values
for all instances of NetworkPort. When set to 1 (Other),
related property OtherPortType contains a string description
of the type of port. A range of values, DMTF_Reserved, has
been defined that allows subclasses to override and define
their specific types of ports.
Possible values are:
● 0 = Unknown
● 1 = Other
● 2 = Not Applicable
● 3..15999 = DMTF Reserved
● 16192 = Parallel Port
● 16193 = Serial Port
● 16194 = Pointing Device
● 16195 = Keyboard
● 16196 = Processor
● 16197 = Memory Device
● 16198 = USB
● 16199 = Monitor
●
16200 = SCSI
● 16201..65535 = Vendor Reserved
PrimaryStatus
Provides a high-level status value, intended to align with Red-
Yellow-Green type representation of status. It should be used
