SensorType

3 = Voltage

4 = Current

5 = Tachometer

6 = Counter

7 = Switch

8 = Lock

9 = Humidity

10 = Smoke Detection

11 = Presence

12 = Air Flow

13 = Power Consumption

14 = Power Production

15 = Pressure

16 = Intrusion

.. = DMTF Reserved

32768..65535 = Vendor 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.

UnitModifier

The unit multiplier for the values returned by this Sensor. All the values returned by this Sensor are represented in the units obtained by (BaseUnits * 10 raised to the power of the UnitModifier).

For example, if BaseUnits is Volts and the Unit Modifier is -6, then the units of the values returned are MicroVolts. However, if the RateUnits property is set to a value other than "None", then the units are further qualified

as rate units.

In the above example, if RateUnits is set to "Per Second", then the values returned by the Sensor are in MicroVolts/Second. The units apply to all numeric properties of the Sensor, unless explicitly overridden by the Units

qualifier.

UpperThresholdCritical

The Sensor's threshold values specify the ranges (min and max values) for determining whether the Sensor is operating under Normal, NonCritical, Critical or Fatal conditions. If the CurrentReading is between

UpperThresholdCritical and Upper ThresholdFatal, then the CurrentState is Critical.

UpperThresholdFatal

UpperThresholdFatal, then the Current State is Fatal.

UpperThresholdNonCritical

LowerThresholdNonCritical and UpperThresholdNonCritical, then the Sensor is reporting a normal value. If the CurrentReading is between UpperThreshold NonCritical and UpperThresholdCritical, then the CurrentState is

NonCritical.

ValueFormulation

Indicates the method used by the sensor to produce its reading.

Possible values are:

0 = Unknown

2 = Measured - Indicates the value is measured directly by the sensor.

3 = Derived - Indicates the value is derived from other measured values that are not reported discretely by this sensor.

.. = DMTF Reserved

32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved

DCIM_Sensor

Caption The Caption property is a short textual description (one- line string) of the object.

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.

CurrentState The current state indicated by the Sensor. This is always one of the "PossibleStates".

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).

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 - 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.
