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.
DeviceID
An address or other identifying information used to uniquely name the
LogicalDevice.
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 subclassed 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.
EnabledDefault
An enumerated value indicating an administrator's default or startup
configuration for the Enabled State of an element.
Possible values are:
• 2 = Enabled
• 3 = Disabled
• 5 = Not Applicable
• 6 = Enabled but Offline
• 7 = No Default
• 9 = Quiesce .. = DMTF Reserved
• 32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
By default, the element is "Enabled" (value=2).
EnabledState
An integer enumeration that indicates the enabled and disabled states
of an element. It can also indicate the transitions between these
requested states. For example, shutting down (value=4) and starting
(value=10) are transient states between enabled and disabled.
Possible values are:
• 0 = Unknown
• 1 = Other
