Property Description
InstanceID
Within the scope of the instantiating Namespace, InstanceID opaquely
and uniquely identifies an instance of this class. In order 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 creating/
defining the InstanceID, or is a registered ID that is assigned to the
business entity by a recognized global authority (This 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 re-used to identify different
underlying (real-world) elements. If the above 'preferred' algorithm is not
used, the defining entity MUST assure that the resultant InstanceID is
not re-used across any InstanceIDs produced by this or other providers
for this instance's NameSpace. For DMTF defined instances, the
'preferred' algorithm MUST be used with the <OrgID> set to 'CIM'.
