General Information:
Controller is a superclass for grouping the
miscellaneous control-related Devices that provide a classic bus master
interface. Examples of Controllers are USBControllers, SerialControllers, and so
on. The Controller class is an abstraction for Devices with a single protocol
stack, which exist to control communications (data, control, and reset) to
downstream devices. Note that a new abstract class (ProtocolController) has been
created to model more complex interface controllers such as
SCSI.

MaxQuiesceTime
public uint64 MaxQuiesceTime
- General Information:
The MaxQuiesceTime property has been
deprecated. When evaluating the use of Quiesce, it was determine that this
single property is not adequate for describing when a device will
automatically exit a quiescent state. In fact, the most likely scenario for a
device to exit a quiescent state was determined to be based on the number of
outstanding requests queued rather than on a maximum time. This will be
re-evaluated and repositioned later.
Maximum time in milliseconds, that a
Device can run in a "Quiesced" state. A Device's state is defined in its
Availability and AdditionalAvailability properties, where "Quiesced" is
conveyed by the value 21. What occurs at the end of the time limit is
device-specific. The Device may unquiesce, may offline or take other action. A
value of 0 indicates that a Device can remain quiesced
indefinitely.

AdditionalAvailability
public uint16[] AdditionalAvailability
- General Information:
Additional availability and status of the
Device, beyond that specified in the Availability property. The Availability
property denotes the primary status and availability of the Device. In some
cases, this will not be sufficient to denote the complete status of the
Device. In those cases, the AdditionalAvailability property can be used to
provide further information. For example, a Device's primary Availability may
be "Off line" (value=8), but it may also be in a low power state
(AdditonalAvailability value=14), or the Device could be running Diagnostics
(AdditionalAvailability value=5, "In
Test").

StatusInfo
public uint16 StatusInfo
- General Information:
The StatusInfo property indicates whether
the Logical Device is in an enabled (value = 3), disabled (value = 4) or some
other (1) or unknown (2) state. If this property does not apply to the
LogicalDevice, the value, 5 ("Not Applicable"), should be used. StatusInfo has
been deprecated in lieu of a more clearly named property with additional
enumerated values (EnabledState), that is inherited from ManagedSystemElement.
If a Device is ("Enabled")(value=3), it has been powered up, and is
configured and operational. The Device may or may not be functionally active,
depending on whether its Availability (or AdditionalAvailability) indicate
that it is ("Running/Full Power")(value=3) or ("Off line") (value=8). In an
enabled but offline mode, a Device may be performing out-of-band requests,
such as running Diagnostics. If ("Disabled") StatusInfo value=4), a Device can
only be "enabled" or powered off. In a personal computer environment,
("Disabled") means that the Device's driver is not available in the stack. In
other environments, a Device can be disabled by removing its configuration
file. A disabled device is physically present in a System and consuming
resources, but can not be communicated with until a load of a driver, a load
of a configuration file or some other "enabling" activity has
occurred.

Availability
public uint16 Availability
- General Information:
The primary availability and status of the
Device. (Additional status information can be specified using the Additional
Availability array property.) For example, the Availability property indicates
that the Device is running and has full power (value=3), or is in a warning
(4), test (5), degraded (10) or power save state (values 13-15 and 17).
Regarding the Power Save states, these are defined as follows: Value 13
("Power Save - Unknown") indicates that the Device is known to be in a power
save mode, but its exact status in this mode is unknown; 14 ("Power Save - Low
Power Mode") indicates that the Device is in a power save state but still
functioning, and may exhibit degraded performance; 15 ("Power Save - Standby")
describes that the Device is not functioning but could be brought to full
power 'quickly'; and value 17 ("Power Save - Warning") indicates that the
Device is in a warning state, though also in a power save
mode.

Note that
the Name property of ManagedSystemElement is also defined as a user-friendly

same property can convey both identity and a user-friendly name, without
inconsistencies. Where Name exists and is not a Key (such as for instances of
LogicalDevice), the same information can be present in both the Name and
ElementName properties. Note that if there is an associated instance of

OperationalStatus
public uint16[] OperationalStatus
- General Information:
Indicates the current statuses of the
element. Various operational statuses are defined. Many of the enumeration's
values are self-explanatory. However, a few are not and are described here in
more detail.
"Stressed" indicates that the element is functioning, but
needs attention. Examples of "Stressed" states are overload, overheated, and
so on.
"Predictive Failure" indicates that an element is functioning
nominally but predicting a failure in the near future.
"In Service"
describes an element being configured, maintained, cleaned, or otherwise
administered.
"No Contact" indicates that the monitoring system has
knowledge of this element, but has never been able to establish communications
with it.
"Lost Communication" indicates that the ManagedSystem Element is
known to exist and has been contacted successfully in the past, but is
currently unreachable.
"Stopped" and "Aborted" are similar, although the
former implies a clean and orderly stop, while the latter implies an abrupt
stop where the state and configuration of the element might need to be
updated.
"Dormant" indicates that the element is inactive or quiesced.
"Supporting Entity in Error" indicates that this element might be "OK" but
that another element, on which it is dependent, is in error. An example is a
network service or endpoint that cannot function due to lower-layer networking
problems.
"Completed" indicates that the element has completed its
operation. This value should be combined with either OK, Error, or Degraded so
that a client can tell if the complete operation Completed with OK (passed),
Completed with Error (failed), or Completed with Degraded (the operation
finished, but it did not complete OK or did not report an error).
"Power
Mode" indicates that the element has additional power model information
contained in the Associated PowerManagementService association.
"Relocating" indicates the element is being
relocated.
OperationalStatus replaces the Status property on
ManagedSystemElement to provide a consistent approach to enumerations, to
address implementation needs for an array property, and to provide a migration
path from today's environment to the future. This change was not made earlier
because it required the deprecated qualifier. Due to the widespread use of the
existing Status property in management applications, it is strongly
recommended that providers or instrumentation provide both the Status and
OperationalStatus properties. Further, the first value of OperationalStatus
should contain the primary status for the element. When instrumented, Status
(because it is single-valued) should also provide the primary status of the
element.

Status
public string Status
- General Information:
A string indicating the current status of
the object. Various operational and non-operational statuses are defined. This
property is deprecated in lieu of OperationalStatus, which includes the same
semantics in its enumeration. This change is made for 3 reasons:
1) Status
is more correctly defined as an array. This definition overcomes the
limitation of describing status using a single value, when it is really a
multi-valued property (for example, an element might be OK AND Stopped.
2)
A MaxLen of 10 is too restrictive and leads to unclear enumerated values.
3) The change to a uint16 data type was discussed when CIM V2.0 was
defined. However, existing V1.0 implementations used the string property and
did not want to modify their code. Therefore, Status was grandfathered into
the Schema. Use of the deprecated qualifier allows the maintenance of the
existing property, but also permits an improved definition using
OperationalStatus.

HealthState
public uint16 HealthState
- General Information:
Indicates the current health of the
element. This attribute expresses the health of this element but not
necessarily that of its subcomponents. The possible values are 0 to 30, where
5 means the element is entirely healthy and 30 means the element is completely
non-functional. The following continuum is defined:
"Non-recoverable
Error" (30) - The element has completely failed, and recovery is not possible.
All functionality provided by this element has been lost.
"Critical
Failure" (25) - The element is non-functional and recovery might not be
possible.
"Major Failure" (20) - The element is failing. It is possible
that some or all of the functionality of this component is degraded or not
working.
"Minor Failure" (15) - All functionality is available but some
might be degraded.
"Degraded/Warning" (10) - The element is in working
order and all functionality is provided. However, the element is not working
to the best of its abilities. For example, the element might not be operating
at optimal performance or it might be reporting recoverable errors.
"OK"
(5) - The element is fully functional and is operating within normal
operational parameters and without error.
"Unknown" (0) - The
implementation cannot report on HealthState at this time.

EnabledState
public uint16 EnabledState
- General Information:
EnabledState is an integer enumeration that
indicates the enabled and disabled states of an element. It can also indicate
the transitions between these requested states. For example, shutting down
(value=4) and starting (value=10) are transient states between enabled and
disabled. The following text briefly summarizes the various enabled and
disabled states:
Enabled (2) indicates that the element is or could be
executing commands, will process any queued commands, and queues new requests.
Disabled (3) indicates that the element will not execute commands and will
drop any new requests.
Shutting Down (4) indicates that the element is in
the process of going to a Disabled state.
Not Applicable (5) indicates the
element does not support being enabled or disabled.
Enabled but Offline
(6) indicates that the element might be completing commands, and will drop any
new requests.
Test (7) indicates that the element is in a test state.
Deferred (8) indicates that the element might be completing commands, but
will queue any new requests.
Quiesce (9) indicates that the element is
enabled but in a restricted mode.
Starting (10) indicates that the element
is in the process of going to an Enabled state. New requests are
queued.

RequestedState
public uint16 RequestedState
- General Information:
RequestedState is an integer enumeration
that indicates the last requested or desired state for the element,
irrespective of the mechanism through which it was requested. The actual state
of the element is represented by EnabledState. This property is provided to
compare the last requested and current enabled or disabled states. Note that
when EnabledState is set to 5 ("Not Applicable"), then this property has no
meaning. Refer to the EnabledState property description for explanations of
the values in the RequestedState enumeration.
"Unknown" (0) indicates the
last requested state for the element is unknown.
Note that the value "No
Change" (5) has been deprecated in lieu of indicating the last requested state
is "Unknown" (0). If the last requested or desired state is unknown,
RequestedState should have the value "Unknown" (0), but may have the value "No
Change" (5).Offline (6) indicates that the element has been requested to
transition to the Enabled but Offline EnabledState.
It should be noted
that there are two new values in RequestedState that build on the statuses of
EnabledState. These are "Reboot" (10) and "Reset" (11). Reboot refers to doing
a "Shut Down" and then moving to an "Enabled" state. Reset indicates that the
element is first "Disabled" and then "Enabled". The distinction between
requesting "Shut Down" and "Disabled" should also be noted. Shut Down requests
an orderly transition to the Disabled state, and might involve removing power,
to completely erase any existing state. The Disabled state requests an
immediate disabling of the element, such that it will not execute or accept
any commands or processing requests.
This property is set as the
result of a method invocation (such as Start or StopService on CIM_Service),
or can be overridden and defined as WRITEable in a subclass. The method
approach is considered superior to a WRITEable property, because it allows an
explicit invocation of the operation and the return of a result code.
If knowledge of the last RequestedState is not supported for the
EnabledLogicalElement, the property shall be NULL or have the value 12 "Not
Applicable".

RestoreProperties
public uint32 RestoreProperties()
- Permission Information:
No permissions defined
General
Information:
Requests that the Device re-establish its configuration,
setup and/or state information from a backing store. The intent is to capture
this information at an earlier time (via the SaveProperties method), and use
it to return a Device to this earlier "condition". This method may not be
supported by all Devices. The method should return 0 if successful, 1 if the
request is not supported, and some other value if any other error occurred. In
a subclass, the set of possible return codes could be specified, using a
ValueMap qualifier on the method. The strings to which the ValueMap contents
are 'translated' may also be specified in the subclass as a Values array
qualifier.
SaveProperties
public uint32 SaveProperties()
- Permission Information:
No permissions defined
General
Information:
Requests that the Device capture its current
configuration, setup and/or state information in a backing store. The goal
would be to use this information at a later time (via the RestoreProperties
method), to return a Device to its present "condition". This method may not be
supported by all Devices. The method should return 0 if successful, 1 if the
request is not supported, and some other value if any other error occurred. In
a subclass, the set of possible return codes could be specified, using a
ValueMap qualifier on the method. The strings to which the ValueMap contents
are 'translated' may also be specified in the subclass as a Values array
qualifier.
QuiesceDevice
public uint32 QuiesceDevice([IN]boolean Quiesce)
- Permission Information:
No permissions defined
General
Information:
The QuiesceDevice method has been deprecated in lieu of
the more general RequestStateChange method that directly overlaps with the
functionality provided by this method.
Requests that the LogicalDevice
cleanly cease all current activity ("Quiesce" input parameter = TRUE) or
resume activity (= FALSE). For this method to quiesce a Device, that Device
should have an Availability (or Additional Availability) of "Running/Full
Power" (value=3) and an EnabledStatus/StatusInfo of "Enabled". For example, if
quiesced, a Device may then be offlined for diagnostics, or disabled for power
off and hot swap. For the method to "unquiesce" a Device, that Device should
have an Availability (or AdditionalAvailability) of "Quiesced" (value=21) and
an EnabledStatus/StatusInfo of "Enabled". In this case, the Device would be
returned to an "Enabled" and "Running/Full Power" status.
The method's
return code should indicate the success or failure of the quiesce. It should
return 0 if successful, 1 if the request is not supported at all, 2 if the
request is not supported due to the current state of the Device, and some
other value if any other error occurred. In a subclass, the set of possible
return codes could be specified, using a ValueMap qualifier on the method. The
strings to which the ValueMap contents are 'translated' may also be specified
in the subclass as a Values array
qualifier.
Qualifiers:

Deprecated={CIM_EnabledLogicalElement.RequestStateChange}
Parameters:
--------------
- Quiesce
- General Information:
If set to TRUE then cleanly cease all
activity, if FALSE resume
activity.

OnlineDevice
public uint32 OnlineDevice([IN]boolean Online)
- Permission Information:
No permissions defined
General
Information:
The OnlineDevice method has been deprecated in lieu of the
more general RequestStateChange method that directly overlaps with the
functionality provided by this method.
Requests that the LogicalDevice be
brought online ("Online" input parameter = TRUE) or taken offline (= FALSE).
"Online" indicates that the Device is ready to accept requests, and is
operational and fully functioning. In this case, the Device's Availability
property would be set to a value of 3 ("Running/Full Power"). "Offline"
indicates that a Device is powered up and operational, but not processing
functional requests. In an offline state, a Device may be capable of running
diagnostics or generating operational alerts. For example, when the "Offline"
button is pushed on a Printer, the Device is no longer available to process
print jobs, but could be available for diagnostics or maintenance.
If this
method is successful, the Device's Availability and AdditionalAvailability
properties should reflect the updated status. If a failure occurs trying to
bring the Device online or offline, it should remain in its current state. IE,
the request, if unsuccessful, should not leave the Device in an indeterminate
state. When bringing a Device back "Online", from an "Offline" mode, the
Device should be restored to its last "Online" state, if at all possible. Only
a Device that has an EnabledState/StatusInfo of "Enabled" and has been
configured can be brought online or taken offline.
OnlineDevice should
return 0 if successful, 1 if the request is not supported at all, 2 if the
request is not supported due to the current state of the Device, and some
other value if any other error occurred. In a subclass, the set of possible
return codes could be specified, using a ValueMap qualifier on the method. The
strings to which the ValueMap contents are 'translated' may also be specified
in the subclass as a Values array qualifier.
Note that this method's
function overlaps with the RequestedState property. RequestedState was added
to the model to maintain a record (i.e., a persisted value) of the last state
request. Invoking the OnlineDevice method should set the RequestedState
property
appropriately.
Qualifiers:

Deprecated={CIM_EnabledLogicalElement.RequestStateChange}
Parameters:
--------------
- Online
- General Information:
If TRUE, take the device online, if
FALSE, take the device
OFFLINE.

EnableDevice
public uint32 EnableDevice([IN]boolean Enabled)
- Permission Information:
No permissions defined
General
Information:
The EnableDevice method has been deprecated in lieu of the
more general RequestStateChange method that directly overlaps with the
functionality provided by this method.
Requests that the LogicalDevice be
enabled ("Enabled" input parameter = TRUE) or disabled (= FALSE). If
successful, the Device's StatusInfo/EnabledState properties should reflect the
desired state (enabled/disabled). Note that this method's function overlaps
with the RequestedState property. RequestedState was added to the model to
maintain a record (i.e., a persisted value) of the last state request.
Invoking the EnableDevice method should set the RequestedState property
appropriately.
The return code should be 0 if the request was successfully
executed, 1 if the request is not supported and some other value if an error
occurred. In a subclass, the set of possible return codes could be specified,
using a ValueMap qualifier on the method. The strings to which the ValueMap
contents are 'translated' may also be specified in the subclass as a Values
array
qualifier.

General
Information:
Requests a reset of the LogicalDevice. The return value
should be 0 if the request was successfully executed, 1 if the request is not
supported and some other value if an error occurred. In a subclass, the set of
possible return codes could be specified, using a ValueMap qualifier on the
method. The strings to which the ValueMap contents are 'translated' may also
be specified in the subclass as a Values array qualifier.

RequestStateChange
public uint32 RequestStateChange([IN]uint16 RequestedState, [OUT]REF CIM_ConcreteJob Job, [IN]datetime TimeoutPeriod)
- Permission Information:
No permissions defined
General
Information:
Requests that the state of the element be changed to the
value specified in the RequestedState parameter. When the requested state
change takes place, the EnabledState and RequestedState of the element will be
the same. Invoking the RequestStateChange method multiple times could result
in earlier requests being overwritten or lost.
A return code of 0 shall
indicate the state change was successfully initiated.
A return code of 3
shall indicate that the state transition cannot complete within the interval
specified by the TimeoutPeriod parameter.
A return code of 4096 (0x1000)
shall indicate the state change was successfully initiated, a ConcreteJob has
been created, and its reference returned in the output parameter Job. Any
other return code indicates an error
condition.

OUT
- TimeoutPeriod
- General Information:
A timeout period that specifies the
maximum amount of time that the client expects the transition to the new
state to take. The interval format must be used to specify the
TimeoutPeriod. A value of 0 or a null parameter indicates that the client
has no time requirements for the transition.
If this property does not
contain 0 or null and the implementation does not support this parameter, a
return code of 'Use Of Timeout Parameter Not Supported' shall be
returned.
