Property Description
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).
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.
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
