associations and check if an associated ComputerSystem instance has the Dedicated property set to 2
(Other) and the OtherDedicatedProperty set to “Multi-node”. If there are no CIM_HostedDependency
associations, follow the SystemComponent associations directly from the top-level computer system and
check if an associated ComputerSystem instance has the Dedicated property set to 2 (other) and the
OtherDedicatedProperty set to “Multi-node”
