Property Description Data Type
LowerThresholdNonCritical If current reading is between lower threshold
noncritical and upper threshold noncritical,
the current state is normal. See Figure 3‑2.
sint32
LowerThresholdCritical If the current reading is between upper
threshold critical and upper threshold fatal,
the current state is critical. See Figure 3‑2.

IsLinear Indicates that the sensor is linear over its
dynamic range.
Boolean
Manufacturer Provides the name of the organization
responsible for producing the
CIM_PhysicalElement or
CIM_SoftwareElement. This may be the
entity from whom the element is purchased,
but not necessarily. Purchase information is
contained in the vendor property of
CIM_Product.
string
Name Denes the label by which the object is
known. When subclassed, the Name
property can be overridden to be a Key
property.
string
Status Provides a string indicating the status of the
component. Status values include:
Operational Status Values:
• OK indicates that the object is
functioning normally.
• Degraded means that the item is
functioning, but not optimally.
• Stressed indicates that the element is
functioning, but needs attention.
Examples of Stressed states are
overloaded, overheated, and so on.
Nonoperational Status Values:
• Non-recover means that a
nonrecoverable error has occurred.
• Error means that an element has
encountered an operational condition
that is severe as compared to its normal
mode of operation.
string
SystemCreationClassName Indicates the system’s creation class name. string
UnitModier Provides the unit multiplier for the values
returned by this sensor. All the values
returned by this sensor are represented in
units of 10 raised to the power of the unit
modier. If the unit modier is –6, then the
units of the values returned are microvolts.
The units apply to all numeric properties of
the sensor, unless explicitly overridden by
the units’ qualier.
