CIM_RedundancyGroup
The CIM_RedundancyGroup class explained in Table 3-42 is a set of components that provide more
instances of a critical component than are required for the system’s operation. The extra components are
used in case of critical component failure. For example, multiple power supplies allow a working power
supply to take over when another power supply has failed.

Class Name: CIM_RedundancyGroup
Parent Class: CIM_LogicalElement
Property Description Data Type
CreationClassName See Table 1-2, "Common Properties of Classes." string
Name Serves as the key for the redundancy group’s instance in an enterprise
environment.
string
RedundancyStatus Provides information on the state of the redundancy group. Values for the
RedundancyStatus property are as follows:
0 Unknown
1
Other
2
Fully redundant. Fully redundant means that all of the configured
redundancy is still available.
3
Degraded redundancy. Degraded redundancy means that some failures
have been experienced but some reduced amount of redundancy is still
available.
4
Redundancy lost. Redundancy lost means that a sufficient number of
failures have occurred so that no redundancy is available and the next
failure experienced will cause overall failure.
