class CIM_SettingData : CIM_ManagedElement
{
  string Caption;
  string Description;

Properties

The CIM_SettingData 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

Qualifiers: Required, Override ("ElementName")

The user-friendly name for an instance of this class. In addition, the user-friendly name can be used as an index for a search or query. The name does not have to be unique within a namespace.

InstanceID

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Key

Uniquely identifies an instance of this class within the scope of the containing namespace.

[!Important]

In order to ensure uniqueness within the namespace, the value of the InstanceID property should be constructed in the following pattern: OrgID:LocalID

  • OrgID must include a copyrighted, trademarked or otherwise unique name that is owned by the business entity that defines the InstanceID property, or be a registered ID that is assigned by a recognized global authority.
  • OrgID must not contain a colon. The first colon in InstanceID must be between the OrgID andLocalID.
  • LocalID is chosen by the business entity and should not be re-used to identify different underlying real-world elements.
  • If the above pattern is not used, the defining entity must assure that the resultant InstanceID value is not re-used across any InstanceID properties that are produced by this provider or other providers for this namespace.
  • For DMTF defined instances, the pattern must be used with the OrgID set to "CIM".
