VendorCompatibilityStrings
An array of strings that identifies the compatibility of the elements within the configuration capacity. This allows vendors to provide information
to the system administrators by providing sufficient information to request the appropriate hardware that can populate the configuration. In
order to ensure uniqueness within the NameSpace, each value defined by the vendor for use in the VendorCompatibilityStrings property SHOULD
be constructed using the following 'preferred' algorithm:
<OrgID>:<LocalID>
Where <OrgID> and <LocalID> are separated by a colon ':', and where <OrgID> MUST include a copyrighted, trademarked or otherwise unique
name that is owned by the business entity creating/defining the InstanceID, or is a registered ID that is assigned to the business entity by a
recognized global authority (This is similar to the <Schema Name>_<Class Name> structure of Schema class names.)
In addition, to ensure uniqueness <OrgID> MUST NOT contain a colon (':'). When using this algorithm, the first colon to appear in InstanceID
MUST appear between <OrgID> and <LocalID>.
<LocalID> is chosen by the business entity and SHOULD not be re-used to identify different underlying (real-world) elements.
DCIM_Location
Address Address is a free-form string indicating a street, building, or other type of address for the location of the PhysicalElement.
Altitude The altitude at which the managed resource is located .
Building Free form string identifying the building in which the managed element resides.
Campus Free form string identifying the campus in which the managed element resides.
ChangeableType
Enumeration indicating intended usage of the DCIM_Location instance.
Possible values are:
0 - Not Changeable - Persistent - Indicates the instance of DCIM_Location reports read only location information and is not modifiable.
1 - Changeable - Transient - Indicates the DCIM_Location reports location information that may be modified by the client but is not persisted.
2 - Changeable - Persistent - Indicates the DCIM_Location reports location information that may be modified by the client that is persisted.
3 - Not Changeable - Transient - Indicates the instance of DCIM_Location reports read only location information and is not modifiable.
City Free form string identifying the city in which the managed element resides.
Country Free form string identifying the Countryin which the managed element resides.
ElementName Human user oriented identifier for this instance.
Floor Free form string identifying the floor in which the managed element resides.
GPSLatitude The latitude at which the managed resource is located.
GPSLongitude The longitude at which the managed resource is located.
MaxStringLength If ChangeableType has the value 1 or 2, MaxStringLength specifies the maximum length for any property that may be modified by a client.
Name Name is a free-form string defining a label for the Location. It is a part of the key for the object.
PhysicalPosition
Position is a free-form string that indicates the placement of a PhysicalElement. It can specify slot information on a HostingBoard, mounting site
in a Cabinet, or latitude and longitude information, for example, from a GPS. It is part of the key of the Location object.
PostalCode Free form string specifying postal code in which the managed element resides.
Province Free form string identifying the province in which the managed element resides.
Rack Free form string identifying the rack in which the managed element resides.
RackCluster Free form string identifying the rack cluster in which the managed element resides.
RackTheta Free form string identifying the rack theta.
RackUnit
A rack unit is a standard measurement of height used to denote the amount of space a physical component occupies in a rack. Rack capacity
may be expressed in terms rack units. When used to indicate location, rack units indicate an offset from the bottom of rack. Thus RackUnit
identifies a particular offset from the bottom of the rack that is occupied by the managed resource. It is implementation specific whether the rack
unit reported is the highest, lowest, or intermediate rack unit occuppied by the managed resource.
Room Free form string identifying the room in which the managed element resides.
Row Free form string identifying the row in which the managed element resides.
State Free form string identifying the state in which the managed element resides.
StreetAddressOne Free form string for the first line of a street address.
StreetAddressTwo
Free form string for the second line of a street address. Uses of this property include consistency with form based address entry, or if the
number of characters in the street address exceed MaxStringLength.
DCIM_BIOSEnumeration
AttributeName
A string identifying the structured element name for a BIOS attribute using the format "<OrgID>:<identifier>" in which <OrgID>, does contain a
colon (":"). The value of <OrgID> is a copyrighted, trademarked or otherwise unique name that is owned by the entity defining the <identifier>,
or is a registered ID that is assigned to the entity by a recognized global authority. For DMTF defined identifiers, the <OrgID> is set to 'DMTF'
and the <identifier> is specified in the BIOS Attribute Registry.
CurrentValue An array of strings representing the current value or values of the BIOS Attribute.
InstanceID
Within the scope of the instantiating Namespace, InstanceID opaquely and uniquely identifies an instance of this class. To ensure uniqueness
within the NameSpace, the value of InstanceID SHOULD be constructed using the following 'preferred' algorithm:
<OrgID>:<LocalID>
Where <OrgID> and <LocalID> are separated by a colon ':', and where <OrgID> MUST include a copyrighted, trademarked or
otherwise unique name that is owned by the business entity creating/defining the InstanceID, or is a registered ID that is assigned to the
business entity by a recognized global authority (this is similar to the <Schema Name>_<Class Name> structure of Schema class names.)
In addition, to ensure uniqueness, <OrgID> MUST NOT contain a colon (':'). When using this algorithm, the first colon to appear in
InstanceID MUST appear between <OrgID> and <LocalID>. <LocalID> is chosen by the business entity and SHOULD not be re-used to identify
different underlying (real-world) elements. If the above 'preferred' algorithm is not used, the defining entity MUST assure that the
resultant InstanceID is not re-used across any InstanceIDs produced by this or other providers for this instance's NameSpace.
For DMTF defined instances, the 'preferred' algorithm MUST be used with the <OrgID> set to 'CIM'.
IsReadOnly
Specifies if the underlying system BIOS or BIOSService will not allow the Attribute to be modified through calls tothe methods
CIM_BIOSService.SetBIOSAttribute or CIM_BIOSService.SetBIOSDefaults. This does not mean the Attribute can not be modified through other
means. Only that the CIM interfaceis not capable of making a change.
PossibleValues
An array of strings containing possible value definitions for the Attribute. The first element SHOULD not be NULL and there SHOULD be no NULL
or empty string elements intermixed with populated array element values. A Value of NULL indicates an element's value is unknown.
PossibleValuesDescription
An array of free-form strings providing explanations and details behind the entries in the CIM_BIOSEnumeration.PossibleValues array. Note that
each entry of this array is related to the entry in PossibleValues array that is located at the same index.
