DCIM_PowerAllocationSettingData
Property Description
ElementName
The user-friendly name for this instance of SettingData. In addition, the
user-friendly name can be used as an index property for a search or
query.
NOTE: The name does not have to be unique within a namespace.
InstanceID
Within the scope of the instantiating Namespace, InstanceID opaquely
and uniquely identifies an instance of this class. To ensure uniqueness
within the NameSpace, the value of InstanceID should be constructed
using the following "preferred" algorithm:
<OrgID> : <LocalID>
Where <OrgID> and <LocalID> are separated by a colon (:), and where
<OrgID> must include a copyrighted, trademarked, or otherwise unique
name that is owned by the business entity that is creating or defining
the InstanceID or that is a registered ID assigned to the business entity
by a recognized global authority. (This requirement is similar to the
<Schema Name>_<Class Name> structure of Schema class names.) In
addition, to ensure uniqueness, <OrgID> must not contain a colon (:).
When using this algorithm, the first colon to appear in InstanceID must
appear between <OrgID> and <LocalID> . <LocalID> is chosen by the
business entity and should not be reused to identify different
underlying (real-world) elements. If the above "preferred" algorithm is
not used, the defining entity must assure that the resulting InstanceID
is not reused across any InstanceIDs produced by this or other
providers for the NameSpace of this instance. For DMTF-defined
instances, the "preferred" algorithm must be used with the <OrgID>set
to CIM.
Limit
This property specifies the upper bound, or maximum amount of
resource that will be granted for this allocation. For example, a system
which supports memory paging may support setting the Limit of a
Memory allocation below that of the VirtualQuantity, thus forcing
paging to occur for this allocation.
PowerAllocationSettingPurpose
When power is consumed by or allocated to a
ManagedSystemElement, there may be well-known or meaningful
levels of allocation or consumption for the ManagedSystemElement.
The PowerAllocationSettingPurpose property may be used to identify
the well known level or provide context for the interpretation of the
other values of the PowerAllocationSettingData instance. A value of
"MaxConAuxiliary" indicates the instance provides information about
the maximum power allocated or consumed by the
ManagedSystemElement as currently configured, while the
ManagedSystemElement is turned off and drawing auxiliary power.
Note that an alternate name for "auxiliary power" is "trickle power"
Possible values are:
• 1 = Other
• 2 = MaxConAuxiliary
• 3 = MinWhenOn - Iindicates the instance provides information
about the minimum value for power consumption for which a
