2.2.11 WBEMSTATUS Enumeration

Article
06/24/2021

The WBEMSTATUS enumeration gives information about the status of an operation. If the server encounters an error condition for which this protocol does not explicitly state an error value, the server can return any HRESULT to indicate failure by setting the Severity (S bit) of the HRESULT, as defined in [MS-ERREF] section 2.1.

The statuses of operations that are not explicitly called out in this document but are part of the associated IDL are deemed to be local-only and are implementation-specific.

WBEM_S_NO_ERROR: The operation completed successfully.

WBEM_S_FALSE: Either no more CIM objects are available, the number of returned CIM objects is less than the number requested, or this is the end of an enumeration. This error code is returned from the IEnumWbemClassObject and IWbemWCOSmartEnum interface methods.

WBEM_E_CANNOT_BE_ABSTRACT: The CIM class on the server had the abstract qualifier set to true, while its parent class does not have the abstract qualifier set to false.
