business entity and is not reused to identify different underlying (real-world) behaviors. If the behavior specified for the LED adheres to a standard or proprietary specification, <Pattern> is a uniquely assigned value
identifying the behavior. If the behavior for the LED is described using a standard or proprietary grammar, <Pattern> is prefixed with a uniquely assigned identifier for the grammar.
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.
DefaultActivationState
Indicates the default state of an LED. See ActivationState for a description of the values.
Possible values are:
2 = Lit
3 = Blinking
4 = Off
5 = Control Pattern
.. = DMTF Reserved
32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
DeviceID An address or other identifying information used to uniquely name the LogicalDevice.
ElementName
Specifies an identifier for the LED. The value of ElementName is constructed using the following "preferred" algorithm: <OrgID>::<LocalID>
Where <OrgID> and <LocalID> are separated by two colons (::), and where <OrgID> includes a copyrighted, trademarked, or otherwise unique name that is owned by the business entity that is creating or defining the
ControlPattern or that is a registered ID assigned to the business entity by a recognized global authority. <LocalID> is chosen by the business entity and should not be reused to identify different underlying (real-world)
elements.
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
It is 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.
11..32767 = DMTF Reserved
32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
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
SystemCreationClassName The CreationClassName of the scoping system.
SystemName The System Name of the scoping system.
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_PowerSupply
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.
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-
