The minimum value in the normal range for the numeric sensor.

OperationalStatus

Data type: uint16 array

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: ArrayType ("Indexed"), ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_ManagedSystemElement.StatusDescriptions")

Indicates the current status of the element. Various operational statuses are defined. Many of the enumeration's values are self- explanatory.

OperationalStatus replaces the Status property to provide a consistent approach to enumerations, to address implementation needs for an array property, and to provide a migration path from today's environment to the future. Due to the widespread use of the existing Status property in management applications, it is strongly recommended that providers/instrumentation provide both the Status and OperationalStatus properties. Further, the first value of OperationalStatus should contain the primary status for the element. When instrumented, Status should also provide the primary status of the element since it is single-valued.

Unknown (0)

Other (1)

OK (2)

Degraded (3)

Stressed (4)

Supporting Entity in Error (16)

This element may be OK but another element on which it is dependent, is in error. An example is a network service or endpoint that cannot function due to lower layer networking problems.

Completed (17)

The element has completed its operation. This value should be combined with either OK, Error, or Degraded so that a client can tell if the complete operation succeeded or not. Completed with Degraded would imply the operation finished, but did not complete OK or report an error.

Power Mode (18)

The element has additional power model information contained in the Associated PowerManagementService association.

Data type: sint32

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MappingStrings ("MIF.DMTF|Temperature Probe|002.14", "MIF.DMTF|Electrical Current Probe|001.14", "MIF.DMTF|Voltage Probe|001.14")

If the CurrentReading is between UpperThresholdCritical and UpperThresholdFatal, then the CurrentState is Critical.

The threshold values collectively specify the CurrentReading value ranges corresponding to the CurrentState values.

UpperThresholdFatal

Data type: sint32

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MappingStrings ("MIF.DMTF|Temperature Probe|002.16", "MIF.DMTF|Electrical Current Probe|001.16", "MIF.DMTF|Voltage Probe|001.16")

If the CurrentReading is above UpperThresholdFatal, then the CurrentState is Fatal.

The threshold values collectively specify the CurrentReading value ranges corresponding to the CurrentState values.

UpperThresholdNonCritical

Data type: sint32

Access type: Read/write

Qualifiers: MappingStrings ("MIF.DMTF|Temperature Probe|002.12", "MIF.DMTF|Electrical Current Probe|001.12", "MIF.DMTF|Voltage Probe|001.12")

If the CurrentReading is between LowerThresholdNonCritical and UpperThresholdNonCritical, then the CurrentState is Normal. If the CurrentReading is between UpperThresholdNonCritical and UpperThresholdCritical, then the CurrentState is NonCritical.

The threshold values collectively specify the CurrentReading value ranges corresponding to the CurrentState values.
