RequestedState
3 - Disabled
4 - Shut Down
5 - No Change
6 - Offline - Indicates that the element has been requested to transition to the Enabled but Offline EnabledState.
7 - Test
8 - Deferred
9 - Quiesce
10 - Reboot - Indicates 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

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.
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).
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 property is NULL or has the value 12 "Not
Applicable".
TransitioningToState
Indicates the target state to which the instance is transitioning.
Possible values are:
0 - Unknown
2 - Enabled
3 - Disabled
4 - Shut Down
5 - No Change - Indicates that no transition is in progress.
6 - Offline
7 - Test
8 - Defer
9 - Quiesce
10 - Reboot
11 - Reset
12 - Not Applicable - Indicates the implementation does not support representing ongoing transitions.
A value other than 5 or 12 identifies the state to which the element is in the process of transitioning.
DCIM_OperatingSystem
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.
CSCreationClassName The scoping ComputerSystem's CreationClassName.
CSName The scoping ComputerSystem's Name.
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. For example, shutting down (value=4) and starting (value=10) are transient states between enabled and disabled.
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 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.
