TargetOperatingSystem
The TargetOperatingSystem property specifies the element's operating system
environment. The value of this property does not ensure that it is binary executable.
Two other pieces of information are needed. First, the version of the OS needs to be
specified using the class, CIM_OSVersion Check. The second piece of information is
the architecture that the OS runs on. This information is verified using
CIM_ArchitectureCheck. The combination of these constructs clearly identifies the
level of OS required for a particular SoftwareElement.
