Property Description
underlying (real-world) elements. If the above "preferred" algorithm is
not used, the defining entity must assure that the resulting InstanceID
is not reused across any InstanceIDs produced by this or other
providers for the NameSpace of this instance. For DMTF-defined
instances, the "preferred" algorithm must be used with the <OrgID>set
to CIM.
Limit
This property specifies the upper bound, or maximum amount of
resource that will be granted for this allocation. For example, a system
which supports memory paging may support setting the Limit of a
Memory allocation below that of the VirtualQuantity, thus forcing
paging to occur for this allocation.
PowerAllocationSettingPurpose
When power is consumed by or allocated to a
ManagedSystemElement, there may be well-known or meaningful
levels of allocation or consumption for the ManagedSystemElement.
The PowerAllocationSettingPurpose property may be used to identify
the well known level or provide context for the interpretation of the
other values of the PowerAllocationSettingData instance. A value of
"MaxConAuxiliary" indicates the instance provides information about
the maximum power allocated or consumed by the
ManagedSystemElement as currently configured, while the
ManagedSystemElement is turned off and drawing auxiliary power.
Note that an alternate name for "auxiliary power" is "trickle power"
Possible values are:
• 1 = Other
• 2 = MaxConAuxiliary
• 3 = MinWhenOn - Iindicates the instance provides information
about the minimum value for power consumption for which a
configuration of the ManagedSystemElement exists such that
when it is powered on and operating in that configuration, the
power consumption of the ManagedSystemElement is
guaranteed not to exceed the specified amount.
• 4 = MaxAsConfigured - Indicates the instance provides
information about the maximum power that may be allocated
to or consumed by the ManagedSystemElement as currently
configured while powered on. The actual power consumed
may be less.
• 5 = MaxIfAllHotPlug - Indicates the instance provides
information about the maximum power allocated or consumed
by the ManagedSystemElement if all components that could be
added to the ManagedSystemElement without requiring a
power cycle of the ManagedSystemElement were added to the
ManagedSystemElement.
• 6 = MaxIfAllColdPlug - Indicates the instance provides
information about the maximum power allocated or consumed
by the ManagedSystemElement if all components that could be
added to the ManagedSystemElement, including those that
require a power cycle of the ManagedSystemElement, were
added to the ManagedSystemElement.
• 7 = Allocated - Indicates the instance provides information
about the current power allocated to the
ManagedSystemElement.
• 8 = MinWithoutDegradation - Indicates the instance provides
information about the minimum power allocated or consumed
by the ManagedSystemElement with out causing performance
degradation.
• .. = DMTF Reserved
