Property Description
NOTE: The value "No Change" (5) has been deprecated instead of
indicating the last requested state is "Unknown" (0). If the last
requested or desired state is unknown, RequestedState should
have the value "Unknown" (0), but may have the value "No Change"
(5).Offline (6) indicates that the element has been requested to
transition to the Enabled but Offline EnabledState. There are two
new values in RequestedState that build on the statuses of
EnabledState. These are "Reboot" (10) and "Reset" (11). Shut Down
requests an orderly transition to the Disabled state, and may
involve removing power, to completely erase any existing state.
The Disabled state requests an immediate disabling of the
element, such that it will not execute or accept any commands or
processing requests. This property is set as the result of a method
invocation (such as Start or StopService on CIM_Service), or can
be overridden and defined as WRITEable in a subclass. The
method approach is considered superior to a WRITEable property,
because it allows an explicit invocation of the operation and the
return of a result code. If knowledge of the last RequestedState is
not supported for the EnabledLogicalElement, the pro
