DCIM_AssetAcquisition
Property Description
CostCenter
Identifying information for the accounting unit withinthe purchasing
company that authorized the purchase.
ElementName
The user-friendly name for this instance of SettingData. In addition,
the user-friendly name can be used as an index property for a
search or query.
NOTE: The name does not have to be unique within a
namespace.
InstallationDate
Date the system was put into service by the purchasing company.
InstanceID
Within the scope of the instantiating Namespace, InstanceID
opaquely and uniquely identifies an instance of this class. To ensure
uniqueness within the NameSpace, the value of InstanceID should
be constructed using the following "preferred" algorithm:
<OrgID> : <LocalID>
Where <OrgID> and <LocalID> are separated by a colon (:), and
where <OrgID> must include a copyrighted, trademarked, or
otherwise unique name that is owned by the business entity that is
creating or defining the InstanceID or that is a registered ID
assigned to the business entity by a recognized global authority.
(This requirement is similar to the <Schema Name>_<Class Name>
structure of Schema class names.) In addition, to ensure
uniqueness, <OrgID> must not contain a colon (:). When using this
algorithm, the first colon to appear in InstanceID must appear
between <OrgID> and <LocalID> .<LocalID> is chosen by the
business entity and should not be reused to identify different
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.
