CIM_LogicalElement 87
CIM_RedundancyGroup
The CIM_RedundancyGroup class described in Table 3-39 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.

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
causes overall failure.
