Property Description
• 26 = CompactPCI
• 27 = AdvancedTCA
• 28 = Blade Enclosure
• .. = DMTF Reserved
• 0x8000..0xFFFF = Vendor Reserved
This property may have a value when the PackageType property
contains the value 3 "Chassis Frame". A value of 28 "Blade
Enclosure" indicates that the Chassis is designed to contain one
or more PhysicalPackage(s) of PackageType 16 "Blade" or
PackageType 17 "Blade Expansion".
ChassisTypeDescription
A string providing more information on the ChassisPackageType.
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.
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 sub-classed
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.
LockPresent
Boolean indicating whether the Frame is protected with a lock.
Manufacturer
The name of the organization responsible for producing the
PhysicalElement. This organization may be the entity from whom
the Element is purchased, but this is not necessarily true. The
latter information is contained in the Vendor property of
CIM_Product.
Model
The name by which the PhysicalElement is generally known.
Name
The Name property defines the label by which the object is
known. When sub-classed, the Name property can be overridden
to be a Key property.
PackageType
Enumeration defining the type of the PhysicalPackage.
Possible values are:
• 0 = Unknown - Indicates that the package type is not
known.
• 1 = Other - The package type does not correspond to an
existing enumerated value. The value is specified using
the OtherPackageType property.
• 2 = Rack
• 3 = Chassis/Frame
• 4 = Cross Connect/Backplane
• 5 = Container/Frame Slot
• 6 = Power Supply
