Property Description
OperationalStatus
Indicates the current statuses of the element. Various operational
statuses are defined. Many of the enumeration's values are self-
explanatory.
Possible values are:
• 0 = Unknown
• 1 = Other
• 2 = OK
• 3 = Degraded
• 4 = Stressed - Indicates that the element is functioning, but
needs attention. Examples of "Stressed" states are overload,
overheated, and so on.
• 5 = Predictive Failure - Indicates that an element is
functioning nominally but predicting a failure in the near
future.
• 6 = Error
• 7 = Non-Recoverable Error
• 8 = Starting
• 9 = Stopping
• 10 = Stopped - Implies a clean and orderly stop.
• 11 = In Service - Describes an element being configured,
maintained, cleaned, or otherwise administered.
• 12 = No Contact - Indicates that the monitoring system has
knowledge of this element, but has never been able to
establish communications with it.
• 13 = Lost Communication - Indicates that the ManagedSystem
Element is known to exist and has been contacted
successfully in the past, but is currently unreachable.
• 14 = Aborted - Implies an abrupt stop where the state and
configuration of the element may need to be updated.
• 15 = Dormant - Indicates that the element is inactive or
quiesced.
• 16 = Supporting Entity in Error - Indicates that this element
may be "OK" but that another element, on which it is
dependent, is in error. An example is a network service or
endpoint that cannot function due to lower-layer networking
problems.
• 17 = Completed - Indicates that the element has completed its
operation. This value should be combined with either OK,
Error, or Degraded so that a client can tell if the complete
operation Completed with OK (passed), Completed with Error
(failed), or Completed with Degraded (the operation finished,
but it did not complete OK or did not report an error).
• 18 = Power Mode - Indicates that the element has additional
power model information contained in the Associated
PowerManagementService association.
• .. = DMTF Reserved
• 0x8000.. = Vendor Reserved
OperationalStatus replaces the Status property on
ManagedSystemElement to provide a consistent approach to
enumerations, to address implementation needs for an array property,
and to provide a migration path from today's environment to the
future. This change was not made earlier because it required the
deprecated qualifier. Due to the widespread use of the existing Status
