CIM_CacheMemory class

The CIM_CacheMemory class defines the capabilities and management of cache memory.

Cache memory is the dedicated or allocated RAM where a processor first searches for data. Data in cache memory is quickly delivered to the processor and is usually described by its proximity to the processor (for example, primary or secondary cache). A disk drive that includes RAM allocated for holding the disk's most recently read or adjacent data (to speed up retrieval) is also modeled as cache memory.

Note

Cache memory is not an operating-system or application-level buffer; it is RAM that has been allocated for caching processor data.

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.
