CIM_ChassisInRack class

Article
01/06/2021

The CIM_ChassisInRack association represents the "containing" relationship between a rack and a chassis that it contains.

Important

The DMTF (Distributed Management Task Force) CIM (Common Information Model) classes are the parent classes upon which WMI classes are built. WMI currently supports only the CIM 2.x version schemas.

The following syntax is simplified from Managed Object Format (MOF) code and includes all inherited properties. Properties are listed in alphabetic order, not MOF order.

Syntax

[Abstract, UUID("{FAF76B73-798C-11D2-AAD1-006008C78BC7}"), AMENDMENT]
class CIM_ChassisInRack : CIM_Container
{
  string          LocationWithinContainer;
  CIM_Chassis REF PartComponent;
  CIM_Rack    REF GroupComponent;
  uint16          BottomU;
};

Members

The CIM_ChassisInRack class has these types of members:

Properties

Properties

The CIM_ChassisInRack class has these properties.

BottomU

Data type: uint16
Access type: Read-only
Qualifiers: Units ("Us")

Integer that indicates the lowest or bottom "U" in which the chassis is mounted. A "U" is a standard unit of measure for the height of a rack, or rack-mountable component, and is equal to 1.75 inches or 4.445 centimeters.

GroupComponent

Data type: CIM_Rack
Access type: Read-only
Qualifiers: Override ("GroupComponent"), Max (1)

A CIM_Rack that describes the rack that contains the chassis.

LocationWithinContainer

Data type: string
Access type: Read-only

Free-form string that represents the positioning of the physical element within the physical package. Information relative to stationary elements in the container (for example, "second drive bay from the top"), angles, altitudes, and other data can be recorded in this property. This string could supplement or be used in place of instantiating the CIM_Location object.

This property is inherited from CIM_Container.

PartComponent

Data type: CIM_Chassis
Access type: Read-only
Qualifiers: Override ("PartComponent")

A CIM_Chassis that describes the chassis which is mounted in the rack.

Remarks

The CIM_ChassisInRack class is derived from CIM_Container.

WMI does not implement this class.

This documentation is derived from the CIM class descriptions published by the DMTF. Microsoft may have made changes to correct minor errors, conform to Microsoft SDK documentation standards, or provide more information.
