CIM_Setting class

The CIM_Setting class represents a configuration or an operational parameter for one or more managed system elements.

The following syntax is simplified from Managed Object Format (MOF) code and includes all of the inherited properties.

Syntax

class CIM_Setting : CIM_ManagedElement
{
  string InstanceID;
  string Caption;
  string Description;
  string ElementName;
  string SettingID;
};

Method Description
ApplyIncrementalChangeToCollection Applies the subset of the properties in the setting to a collection of managed system elements.

ApplyToMSE Applies the setting to a managed system element.
VerifyOKToApplyIncrementalChangeToCollection Indicates whether a subset of the properties in the setting can be applied to the collection of managed systems element during the specified time or time interval.
VerifyOKToApplyIncrementalChangeToMSE Indicates whether a subset of the properties in the setting can be applied to the managed system element during the specified time or time interval.
VerifyOKToApplyToCollection Indicates whether the setting can be applied to the specified collection of managed system elements during the specified time or time interval..
VerifyOKToApplyToMSE Indicates whether the setting can be applied to the specified managed system element during the specified time or time interval.

Properties

The CIM_Setting class has these properties.

Caption

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MaxLen (64)

The Caption property is a short textual description (one- line string) of the object.

This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedElement.

Description

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

The Description property provides a textual description of the object.

This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedElement.

ElementName

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

A user-friendly name for the object. This property allows each instance to define a user-friendly name in addition to its key properties, identity data, and description information.

This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedElement.

InstanceID

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

An optional property that may be used to opaquely and uniquely identify an instance of this class within the scope of the instantiating Namespace. Various subclasses of this class may override this property to make it required, or a key. Such subclasses may also modify the preferred algorithms for ensuring uniqueness that are defined below.

To ensure uniqueness within the namespace, the value of InstanceID should be constructed using the following "preferred" algorithm:

<OrgID>:<LocalID>

Where <OrgID> and <LocalID> are separated by a colon (:), and where <OrgID> must include a copyrighted, trademarked, or otherwise unique name that is owned by the business entity that is creating or defining the InstanceID or that is a registered ID assigned to the business entity by a recognized global authority. (This requirement is similar to the <Schema Name>_<Class Name> structure of schema class names.) In addition, to ensure uniqueness, <OrgID> must not contain a colon (:). When using this algorithm, the first colon to appear in InstanceID must appear between <OrgID> and <LocalID>.

<LocalID> is chosen by the business entity and should not be reused to identify different underlying (real-world) elements. If not null and the above "preferred" algorithm is not used, the defining entity must assure that the resulting InstanceID is not reused across any InstanceIDs produced by this or other providers for the namespace of this instance.

If not set to null for DMTF-defined instances, the "preferred" algorithm must be used with the <OrgID> set to CIM.

This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedElement.

SettingID

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MaxLen (256)

The ID of the setting.
