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).
Reboot refers to doing a "Shut Down" and then moving to
an "Enabled" state. Reset indicates that the element is first
"Disabled" and then "Enabled". 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 property is NULL or has the
value 12 "Not Applicable".
