EnabledState
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

32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
Name The Name property uniquely identifies the Service and provides an indication of the functionality that is managed. This functionality is described in more detail in the Description property of the object.
PendingPowerUtilizationAlgorithm
This property describes the pending requested algorithm to be employed by the service for power utilization.
Possible values are:
0 – Unknown
2 – None
3 – Custom Settings Based
4 – Maximum Performance
5 – Minimum Performance
6 – OS Specific
7 – Active Power Utilization
8 – Not Applicable
PowerUtilizationAlgorithm
Describes the algorithm employed by the service for power utilization. Depending on the performance and power needs of the managed element, the selection could be made for the apropriate algorithm to be deployed for
the power utilization.
Possible values are:
0 = Unknown
2 = None - Indicates that currently the service is not employing any power utilization algorithm. If the property value is 2 ("None"), then the PowerUtilizationMode is equal to 2 ("None").
3 = Custom Settings Based - Indicates that the service is employing power utilzation algorithm based on a specific settings. This settings may be represented by the DCIM_PowerUtilizationSettingData instance associated
4 = Maximum Performance - Indicates that the service is employing a power utilization that yields the maximum performance for the affected managed elements. If the property value is 4 ("Maximum Performance"), then
the PowerUtilizationMode is equal to 4 ("Static").
5 = Minimum Performance - Indicates that the service is employing a power utilization that yields the minimum power consumption for the affected managed elements. If the property value is 5 ("Minimum Performance"),
then the PowerUtilizationMode is equal to 4 ("Static").
6 = OS Specific - Indicates that the service is employing a power utilization defined by the operating system. If the property value is 6 ("OS Specific"), then the PowerUtilizationMode is equal to 3 ("Dynamic").
7 = Active Power Utilization - Indicates that the service is employing a specific algorithm to yield the best power conumption and performance for the affected managed elements. If the property value is 7 ("Active Power
Utilization"), then the PowerUtilizationMode is equal to 3 ("Dynamic").
PowerUtilizationMode
Indicates the current power utilization mode implemented by the service. The mode selection is a generally made infrequently as part of element configuration.
Possible values are:
2 = None - Indicates that no effort is being made to reduce the power consumed by the system below nominal.
3 = Dynamic - Indicates the PowerUtilizationManagementService is actively modifying the configuration of one or more system components in order to reduce the power consumed.
4 = Static - Indicates the system whose power utilization functionality is represented by the PowerUtilizationManagementService is operating with a fixed configuration resulting in a lower level of power consumption than
nominal. Static mode differs from dynamic in that the mode corresponds to a single fixed configuration, while dynamic mode implies frequent changes in system configuration.
.. = DMTF Reserved
32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
RequestedState
An integer enumeration that indicates the last requested or desired state for the element, irrespective of the mechanism through which it was requested. 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.
Possible values are:
0 = Unknown - Indicates the last requested state for the element is unknown.
2 = Enabled
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 - Refers to doing 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
.. = DMTF Reserved
32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
Note: When EnabledState is set to 5 ("Not Applicable"), then this property has no meaning. See 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".
SystemCreationClassName The CreationClassName of the scoping System.
SystemName The 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
