SMS_CIRelation Server WMI Class

 

Applies To: System Center 2012 Configuration Manager, System Center 2012 Configuration Manager SP1, System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager

The SMS_CIRelation Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) class is an SMS Provider server class, in System Center 2012 R2 Configuration Manager, that defines the relationship between two configuration items, for example, the superseding of one item by another.

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

Syntax

Class SMS_CIRelation : SMS_BaseClass
{
    UInt32 FromCIID;
    Boolean IsBroken;
    Boolean IsVersionSpecific;
    UInt32 Priority;
    UInt32 RelationType;
    UInt32 ToCIID;
};

Methods

The SMS_CIRelation class does not define any methods.

Properties

  • FromCIID
    Data type: UInt32

    Access type: Read/Write

    Qualifiers: [key]

    The ID of one of the configuration items. The value of this property usually depends on the value of ToCIID in the context specified by RelationType. For example, this property can represent a child configuration item ID (FROMCIID) that is derived from a parent configuration item ID (TOCIID).

    The ID of a configuration item is represented by the CI_ID property of SMS_ConfigurationItemLatestBaseClass Server WMI Class.

  • IsBroken
    Data type: Boolean

    Access type: Read-only

    Qualifiers: [read, key]

    true if the relation is broken, otherwise the value will be false.

  • IsVersionSpecific
    Data type: Boolean

    Access type: Read/Write

    Qualifiers: None.

    See SMS_ConfigurationItemLatestBaseClass Server WMI Class.

  • Priority
    Data type: UInt32

    Access type: Read/Write

    Qualifiers: None.

    One App to deployment type relation (9) has priority.

  • RelationType
    Data type: UInt32

    Access type: Read/Write

    Qualifiers: None

    Type of relationship between configuration items. Possible values are:

    1

    Bundled

    2

    Required

    3

    Prohibited

    4

    Optional

    5

    Derived

    6

    Superseded

  • ToCIID
    Data type: UInt32

    Access type: Read/Write

    Qualifiers: [key]

    The ID for the second configuration item that is related to the first item. The value of this property usually depends on the value of FromCIID in the context specified by RelationType. For example, this property can represent a parent configuration item ID (TOCIID) from which a child configuration item ID (FROMCIID) is derived.

    The ID of a configuration item is represented by the CI_ID property of SMS_ConfigurationItemLatestBaseClass Server WMI Class.
