Property Description
• 32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
Note that when EnabledState is set to 5 ("Not Applicable"), then this
property has no meaning. Refer to the EnabledState property description
for explanations of the values in the RequestedState enumeration.
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).
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 property is NULL or has the value 12 "Not
Applicable".
SystemCreationClassName
The CreationClassName of the scoping System.
SystemName
The Name of the scoping System.
TransitioningToState
Indicates the target state to which the instance is transitioning.
Possible values are:
• 0 = Unknown
• 2 = Enabled
• 3 = Disabled
• 4 = Shut Down
• 5 = No Change - Indicates that no transition is in progress.
• 6 = Offline
• 7 = Test
• 8 = Defer
• 9 = Quiesce
• 10 = Reboot
• 11 = Reset
• 12 = Not Applicable - Indicates the implementation does not
support representing ongoing transitions
A value other than 5 or 12 identifies the state to which the element is in
the process of transitioning.
