Properties
Component
Data type: String
Access type: Read
Qualifiers: None
Name of the component that created the message. For user-defined messages, this name comes from the ApplicationName context qualifier that you must set before calling a raise status message method.
MachineName
Data type: String
Access type: Read
Qualifiers: None
Name of the computer that created the message. For user-defined messages, this name comes from the MachineName context qualifier that you must set before calling a raise status message method.
MessageID
Data type: UInt32
Access type: Read
Qualifiers: [Range("0-65535")]
Unique ID of message text in a message DLL. This property is set to the associated value when your application calls a method listed in the following table.
MessageType
Data type: UInt32
Access type: Read
Qualifiers: None
Type of message. Possible values are:
| Value | Message type |
|---|---|
| 256 | Milestone. Use this type at the end of an operation to indicate the operation's success or failure. If the operation was successful, use the Milestone type in an informational message. If the operation failed, use a milestone message type in a warning or error message. |
| 512 | Detail. Use this type to illustrate the steps in a complex operation. Often, detail messages are meaningful only within the context of the sequence of status messages representing a complex operation. |
| 768 | Audit. Use this type for informational messages that provides a trail of actions taken by the Configuration Manager administrator. An audit message also depicts an operation that results in objects being added, modified, or deleted. You do not need to create audit messages; the provider automatically generates these messages for you. |
| 1024 | NTEvent. |
ModuleName
Data type: String
Access type: Read
Qualifiers: None
The DLL that is associated with the status message. This is not the name of the DLL itself, but a display string corresponding to the ModuleName property value defined in the SMS_StatMsgModuleNames Server WMI Class class. You use the ModuleName value to get the DLL name.
PerClient
Data type: UInt32
Access type: Read
Qualifiers: None
Value indicating whether the status message was generated by a client component. Possible values are listed below. Messages generated on a per-client basis tend to be quite numerous. Thus, this property provides an easy way to filter them out.
