Property Description
• .. = DMTF Reserved
• 32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
NOTE: When EnabledState is set to 5 ("Not Applicable"), then
this property has no meaning. Refer to 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

progress.
• 6 = Offline
• 7 = Test
• 8 = Defer
• 9 = Quiesce

• 11 = Reset
• 12 = Not Applicable - Indicates the implementation does
not support representing ongoing transitions.
