Properties

The Msvm_TerminalConnection class has these properties.

AvailableRequestedStates

Data type: uint16 array
Access type: Read-only

Indicates the possible values for the RequestedState parameter of the RequestStateChange method. This property is inherited from CIM_EnabledLogicalElement, and it is always set to Null.

Caption

Data type: string
Access type: Read-only

A short description of the object. This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedElement.

CommunicationStatus

Data type: uint16
Access type: Read-only

Indicates the ability of the instrumentation to communicate with the underlying managed element. A Null value indicates that this property is not implemented. This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.

Unknown (0)
Not Available (1)
Communication OK (2)
Lost Communication (3)
No Contact (4)
DMTF Reserved (..)
Vendor Reserved (0x8000.. )

ConnectionID

Data type: string
Access type: Read-only
Qualifiers: Key

The unique identifier for an instance of the terminal connection object. The identifier is of the form "Microsoft:VMID\Index". For example, "Microsoft:67A5D397-A02D-11DB-AC13-001676AA34F0\0".

Description

Data type: string
Access type: Read-only

A description of the object. This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedElement.

DetailedStatus

Data type: uint16
Access type: Read-only

Compliments the PrimaryStatus property with additional status detail. A Null value indicates that this property is not implemented. This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.

Not Available (0)
No Additional Information (1)
Stressed (2)
Predictive Failure (3)
Non-Recoverable Error (4)
Supporting Entity in Error (5)
DMTF Reserved (..)
Vendor Reserved (0x8000.. )

ElementName

Data type: string
Access type: Read-only

A display name for the object. This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedElement.

EnabledDefault

Data type: uint16
Access type: Read-only

An administrator's default or startup configuration for the enabled state of an element. This property is inherited from CIM_EnabledLogicalElement.

Value	Meaning
2	Enabled
3	Disabled

EnabledState

Data type: uint16
Access type: Read-only

The enabled and disabled states of an element. It can also indicate the transitions between these requested states. This property is inherited from CIM_EnabledLogicalElement.

Value	Meaning
2	Enabled
3	Disabled
5	Not Applicable

HealthState

Data type: uint16
Access type: Read-only

The current health of the element. This attribute expresses the health of this element but not necessarily that of its subcomponents. The possible values are 0 to 30, where 5 means the element is entirely healthy and 30 means the element is completely nonfunctional. This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement, and it is always set to 5 (OK).

InstallDate

Data type: datetime
Access type: Read-only

The date and time the virtual machine configuration was created. This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.

InstanceID

Data type: string
Access type: Read-only
Qualifiers: Key

Uniquely identifies an instance of this class. This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedElement.

Name

Data type: string
Access type: Read-only

The label by which the object is known. This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement, and it is the same as the ElementName property.

OperatingStatus

Data type: uint16
Access type: Read-only

Provides current status information for the operational condition of the element and can be used for providing more detail with respect to the value of the EnabledState property. A Null value indicates that this property is not implemented. This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.

Unknown (0)
Not Available (1)
Servicing (2)
Starting (3)
Stopping (4)
Stopped (5)
Aborted (6)

OperationalStatus

Data type: uint16 array
Access type: Read-only

The current statuses of the object. This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.

OtherEnabledState

Data type: string
Access type: Read-only

A string that describes the enabled or disabled state of the element when the EnabledState property is set to 1 (Other). This property must be set to Null when EnabledState is any value other than 1. This property is inherited from CIM_EnabledLogicalElement, and it is always set to Null.

PrimaryStatus

Data type: uint16
Access type: Read-only

Provides high level status information. This property should be used in conjunction with the DetailedStatus property to provide high level and detailed health status of the element and its subcomponents. A Null value indicates that this property is not implemented. This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.

Unknown (0)
OK (1)
Degraded (2)
Error (3)
DMTF Reserved (..)
Vendor Reserved (0x8000.. )

RequestedState

Data type: uint16
Access type: Read-only

The last requested or desired state for the element. The actual state of the element is represented by EnabledState. This property is provided to compare the last requested and current enabled or disabled states. A particular instance of CIM_EnabledLogicalElement might not support RequestStateChange. If this occurs, the value 12 is used. This property is inherited from CIM_EnabledLogicalElement.

Value	Meaning
12	Not Applicable

Status

Data type: string
Access type: Read-only

The current status of the object. This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement, but it is not used.

StatusDescriptions

Data type: string array
Access type: Read-only

Strings that describe the various OperationalStatus array values. This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.

TimeOfLastStateChange

Data type: datetime
Access type: Read-only

The date or time when the enabled state of the element last changed. This property is inherited from CIM_EnabledLogicalElement, and it is always set to Null.

TransitioningToState

Data type: uint16
Access type: Read-only

Indicates the target state to which the instance is transitioning. This property is inherited from CIM_EnabledLogicalElement.

Value	Meaning
12	Not Applicable

Remarks

Access to the Msvm_TerminalConnection class might be restricted by UAC Filtering. For more information, see User Account Control and WMI.
