Property Description
NOTE: It is assumed that the semantics of each
property of this set are designed to be compared
mathematically. When IsMinimum = "Is Miniumum",
this property indicates that the affected property
values specified in the associated SettingData
instance defines desired minimum setting values. The
operational minimum values should be modeled as a
properties of the CIM_ManagedElement instance.
When IsMinimum = "Is Not Miniumum", this property
indicates that the affected property values specified
in the associated SettingData instance does not
define desired minimum setting values. When
IsMinimum = "Unknown", this property indicates that
the affected property values specified in the
associated SettingData instance may correspond to
minimum desired setting values. When IsMinimum =
"Not Applicable", this property indicates that the
affected property values specified in the associated
SettingData instance is not interpreted with respect
to whether each defines a desired minimum.
Possible values are:
• 0 = Unknown
• 1 = Not Applicable
• 2 = Is Minimum
• 3 = Is Not Minimum
IsNext
An enumerated integer indicating whether or not the
referenced setting is the next setting to be applied. For
example, the application could take place on a re-
initialization, reset, reconfiguration request. This could be
a permanent setting, or a setting used only one time, as
indicated by the flag. If it is a permanent setting then the
setting is applied every time the managed element
reinitializes, until this flag is manually reset. However, if it
is single use, then the flag is automatically cleared after
the settings are applied. Also note that if this flag is
specified (i.e. set to value other than "Unknown"), then this
takes precedence over any SettingData that may have
been specified as Default. For example: If the managed
element is a computer system, and the value of this flag is
"Is Next", then the setting will be effective next time the
system resets. And, unless this flag is changed, it will
persist for subsequent system resets. However, if this flag
is set to "Is Next For Single Use", then this setting will only
be used once and the flag would be reset after that to "Is
Not Next". So, in the above example, if the system reboots
in a quick succession, the setting will not be used at the
second reboot.
Possible values are:
• 0 = Unknown
• 1 = Is Next
• 2 = Is Not Next
