Property Description
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.
Manufacturer
The name of the organization responsible for producing the PhysicalElement.
This organization may be the entity from where 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.
PartNumber
The part number assigned by the organization that is responsible for
producing or manufacturing the PhysicalElement.
SerialNumber
A manufacturer-allocated number used to identify the Physical Element.
SKU
The stock-keeping unit number for this PhysicalElement.
Tag
An arbitrary string that uniquely identifies the Physical Element and serves as
the key of the Element. The Tag property can contain information such as
asset tag or serial number data. The key for PhysicalElement is placed very
high in the object hierarchy to independently identify the hardware or entity,
regardless of physical placement in or on Cabinets, Adapters, and so on.
For example, a hotswappable or removable component can be taken from its
containing (scoping) Package and be temporarily unused. The object still
continues to exist and can even be inserted into a different scoping container.
Therefore, the key for Physical Element is an arbitrary string and is defined
independently of any placement or location-oriented hierarchy.

string) of the object.
