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.
