Property Description
• 2 = Measured - Indicates the value is measured
directly by the sensor.
• 3 = Derived - Indicates the value is derived from
other measured values that are not reported
discretely by this sensor.
• .. = DMTF Reserved
• 32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
SupportedThresholds
SupportedThresholds property is an array that contains
the list of the implemented thresholds:
LowerThresholdNonCritical, UpperThresholdNonCritical,
LowerThresholdCritical, UpperThresholdCritical. When
the implementation does not support any of these
threshold properties, the
CIM_NumericSensor.SupportedThresholds property shall
be an empty array.
SettableThresholds
SettableThresholds property is an array that contains the
list of the settable implemented thresholds:
LowerThresholdNonCritical, UpperThresholdNonCritical.
The CIM_NumericSensor.SettableThresholds array shall
contain the subset of values in the
CIM_NumericSensor.SupportedThresholds array. When
the implementation does not support any of the settable
threshold properties, the
CIM_NumericSensor.SettableThresholds property shall
be an empty array.
DCIM_Sensor
Property Description
Caption
The Caption property is a short textual description (one- line string) of the object.
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.
CurrentState
The current state indicated by the Sensor. This is always one of the
"PossibleStates".
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.
