CIM_SystemSpecificCollection class

A base class for collections that are scoped or contained by a system. Such a collection only has meaning in the context of the containing system.

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

Properties

The CIM_SystemSpecificCollection class has these properties.

Caption

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MaxLen (64)

A short textual description of the object.

This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedElement.

Description

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

A textual description of the object.

This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedElement.

ElementName

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

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.

This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedElement.

InstanceID

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Key

Opaquely and uniquely identifies an instance of this class within the scope of the instantiating Namespace. To ensure uniqueness within the NameSpace, the value of InstanceID should be constructed using the following format:

<OrgID>:<LocalID>

<OrgID> must include a copyrighted, trademarked or otherwise unique name that is owned by the business entity creating the InstanceID, or is a registered ID that is assigned to the business entity by a recognized global authority. <OrgID> must not contain a colon (":"). The first colon to appear in InstanceID must be between <OrgID> and <LocalID>.

<LocalID> is chosen by the business entity and should not be re-used to identify different underlying elements.

If the above format is not used, the defining entity must assure that the resultant InstanceID is not re-used by this or other providers for this instance's NameSpace.

For DMTF defined instances, the format must have <OrgID> set to "CIM".
