CIM_FileSystem class
The CIM_FileSystem class represents a file or data set local to a computer system or remotely mounted from a file server.
Important
The DMTF (Distributed Management Task Force) CIM (Common Information Model) classes are the parent classes upon which WMI classes are built. WMI currently supports only the CIM 2.x version schemas.
The following syntax is simplified from Managed Object Format (MOF) code and includes all inherited properties. Properties are listed in alphabetic order, not MOF order.

Properties
The CIM_FileSystem class has these properties.
-
AvailableSpace
-
-
Data type: uint64
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: MappingStrings ("MIF.DMTF|Partition|002.4"), Units ("bytes")
Amount of free space, in bytes, for the file system. If unknown, enter 0.
For more information about using uint64 values in scripts, see Scripting in WMI.
-
-
BlockSize
-
-
Data type: uint64
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: Units ("bytes")
Block size of the file system for data storage and retrieval.
For more information about using uint64 values in scripts, see Scripting in WMI.
-
-
Caption
-
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: MaxLen (64), DisplayName ("Caption")
A short textual description of the object.
This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.
-
-
CasePreserved
-
-
Data type: boolean
-
Access type: Read-only
If TRUE, the case of file names are preserved.
-
-
CaseSensitive
-
-
Data type: boolean
-
Access type: Read-only
If TRUE, case-sensitive file names are supported.
-
-
CodeSet
-
-
Data type: uint16 array
-
Access type: Read-only
Array that defines the character sets or encoding supported by the file system.

Unicode (3)
-
ISO2022 (4)

-
UCS-2 (8)
CompressionMethod
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: MappingStrings ("MIF.DMTF|Partition|002.7")
Free-form string that indicates the algorithm or tool used to compress the logical file. If the compression scheme is unknown or not described, use "Unknown". If the logical file is compressed, but the compression scheme is unknown or not described, use "Compressed". If the logical file is not compressed, use "Not Compressed".
CreationClassName
Name of the class or subclass used in the creation of an instance. When used with other key properties of the class, this property allows all instances of the class and its subclasses to be uniquely identified.
CSCreationClassName
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: Key, MaxLen (256), Propagated ("CIM_ComputerSystem.CreationClassName")
Scoping computer system's creation class name.
CSName
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: Key, MaxLen (256), Propagated ("CIM_ComputerSystem.Name")
Scoping computer system's name.
Description
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: DisplayName ("Description")
A textual description of the object.
This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.
EncryptionMethod
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: MappingStrings ("MIF.DMTF|Partition|002.8")
Free-form string that identifies the algorithm or tool used to encrypt a logical file. If the encryption scheme is not indulged (for security reasons, for example), use "Unknown". If the file is encrypted, but either its encryption scheme is unknown or not disclosed, use "Encrypted". If the logical file is not encrypted, use "Not Encrypted".
FileSystemSize
-
Data type: uint64
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: Units ("bytes")
Size of the file system, in bytes. If unknown, enter 0 (zero).
For more information about using uint64 values in scripts, see Scripting in WMI.
InstallDate
-
Data type: datetime
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: MappingStrings ("MIF.DMTF|ComponentID|001.5"), DisplayName ("Install Date")
Indicates when the object was installed. Lack of a value does not indicate that the object is not installed.
This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.
MaxFileNameLength
-
Data type: uint32
-
Access type: Read-only
Maximum length of a file name within the file system. A value of 0 (zero) indicates that there is no limit to the file name length.
Name
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: DisplayName ("Name")
Label by which the object is known. When subclassed, this property can be overridden to be a key property.
This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.
ReadOnly
-
Data type: boolean
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: MappingStrings ("MIB.IETF|HOST-RESOURCES-MIB.hrFSAccess")
If TRUE, the file system is designated as read only.
Root
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: MappingStrings ("MIB.IETF|HOST-RESOURCES-MIB.hrFSMountPoint")
Path name or other information that defines the root of the file system.
Status
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: MaxLen (10), DisplayName ("Status")
String that indicates the current status of the object. Operational and non-operational status can be defined. Operational status can include "OK", "Degraded", and "Pred Fail". "Pred Fail" indicates that an element is functioning properly, but is predicting a failure (for example, a SMART-enabled hard disk drive).
Non-operational status can include "Error", "Starting", "Stopping", and "Service". "Service" can apply during disk mirror-resilvering, reloading a user permissions list, or other administrative work. Not all such work is online, but the managed element is neither "OK" nor in one of the other states.
This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.
Values include the following:
OK ("OK")
Error ("Error")
Degraded ("Degraded")
Unknown ("Unknown")
Pred Fail ("Pred Fail")
Starting ("Starting")
Stopping ("Stopping")
Service ("Service")
Stressed ("Stressed")
NonRecover ("NonRecover")
No Contact ("No Contact")
Lost Comm ("Lost Comm")
Remarks
The CIM_FileSystem class is derived from CIM_LogicalElement.
WMI does not implement this class.
This documentation is derived from the CIM class descriptions published by the DMTF. Microsoft may have made changes to correct minor errors, conform to Microsoft SDK documentation standards, or provide more information.
