13 - Overcharged
Values such as "Fully Charged" (value=3) or "Partially Charged" (value=11) can be specified. The value, 10, is not valid in the CIM Schema
because in DMI it represents that no battery is installed. In this case, this object should not be instantiated.
ChargingStatus
Defines status information about the AC line in the notebook.
Possible values are:
1 - Other
2 - Unknown
3 - Off- Line
4 - On-Line
5 - On Backup Power
Chemistry
An enumeration that describes the chemistry of the Battery.
Possible values are:
1 - Other
2 - Unknown
3 - Lead Acid
4 - Nickel Cadmium
5 - Nickel Metal Hydride
6 - Lithium-ion
7 - Zinc air
8 - Lithium Polymer
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.
DesignCapacity The design capacity of the battery in mWatt-hours. If this property is not supported, enter 0.
DesignVoltage The design voltage of the battery in mVolts. If this attribute is not supported, enter 0.
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.
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 - Iindicates 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 execute commands and will drop any new requests.
4 - Shutting Down - Indicates that the element is in the process of going to a Disabled state.
5 - Not Applicable - Indicates the element does not support being enabled or disabled.
6 - Enabled but Offline - Indicates that the element may be completing commands, and will drop 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 will queue 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.
EstimatedChargeRemaining An estimate of the percentage of full charge remaining.
EstimatedRunTime
An estimate in minutes of the time that battery charge depletion will occur under the present load conditions if the utility power is off, or is lost
and remains off, or a Laptop is disconnected from a power source.
HealthState
Indicates the current health of the element. This attribute expresses the health of this element but not necessarily that of its subcomponents.
DMTF has reserved the unused portion of the continuum for additional HealthStates in the future.
Possible values are:
0 - Unknown - The implementation cannot report on HealthState at this time.
5 - OK - The element is fully functional and is operating within normal operational parameters and without error.
10 - Degraded/Warning - The element is in working order and all functionality is provided. However, the element is not working to the best of its
abilities. For example, the element may not be operating at optimal performance or it may be reporting recoverable errors.
15 - Minor failure - All functionality is available but some may be degraded.
20 - Major failure - The element is failing. It is possible that some or all of the functionality of this component is degraded or not working.
25 - Critical failure - The element is non-functional and recovery may not be possible.
30 - Non-recoverable error - The element has completely failed, and recovery is not possible. All functionality provided by this element has been
lost.
.. - DMTF Reserved
IdentifyingDescriptions
An array of free-form strings providing explanations and details behind the entries in the OtherIdentifyingInfo array. Note that each entry of this
array is related to the entry in OtherIdentifyingInfo that is located at the same index.
Name
The Name property defines the label by which the object is known. When subclassed, the Name property can be overridden to be a Key
property.
Indicates the current statuses of the element. Various operational statuses are defined. Many of the enumeration's values are self-explanatory.
Possible values are:
0 - Unknown
1 - Other
2 - OK
3 - Degraded -
4 - Stressed - Indicates that the element is functioning, but needs attention. Examples of "Stressed" states are overload, overheated, and so on.
5 - Predictive Failure - Indicates that an element is functioning nominally but predicting a failure in the near future.
6 - Error
7 - Non-Recoverable Error
8 - Starting
9 - Stopping
10 - Stopped - Implies a clean and orderly stop
11 - In Service - Describes an element being configured, maintained, cleaned, or otherwise administered.
12 - No Contact - Indicates that the monitoring system has knowledge of this element, but has never been able to establish communications
with it.
