CIM_ManagedElement class
ManagedElement is an abstract class that provides a common superclass (or top of the inheritance tree) for the non-association classes in the CIM Schema.
The following syntax is simplified from Managed Object Format (MOF) code and includes all of the inherited properties.
[Abstract, UMLPackagePath("CIM::Core::CoreElements"), Version("2.19.0"), AMENDMENT]
class CIM_ManagedElement
{
string InstanceID;
string Caption;
string Description;
string ElementName;
};
The CIM_ManagedElement class has these types of members:
The CIM_ManagedElement class has these properties.
-
Caption
-
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: MaxLen (64)
Contains a short textual description of the object.
-
-
Description
-
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
Provides a textual description of the object.
-
-
ElementName
-
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
Contains 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.
-
-
InstanceID
-
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
Uniquely and opaquely identifies an instance of this class within the scope of the containing Namespace.
[!Important]
In order to ensure uniqueness within the Namespace, the value of InstanceID should be constructed in the following pattern:
OrgID:LocalID
OrgID must include a copyrighted, trademarked or otherwise unique name that is owned by the business entity defining the InstanceID, or be a registered ID that is assigned by a recognized global authority. This is similar to the structure of Schema class names. In addition, to ensure uniqueness the first colon in InstanceID must be between the OrgID andLocalID. Therefore the OrgID must not contain a colon (':').
LocalID is chosen by the business entity and should not be re-used to identify different underlying real-world elements.
If the preceding pattern is not used, the defining entity must assure that the resultant InstanceID is not re-used across any InstanceIDs produced by this or other providers for this Namespace.
For Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF) defined instances, the pattern must be used with the OrgID set to CIM.
