The SMS_PropertyDisplayNode Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) class is an SMS Provider server class, in Configuration Manager, that defines the nodes that are displayed in Resource Explorer.

The following syntax is simplified from Managed Object Format (MOF) code and includes all inherited properties.

Class SMS_PropertyDisplayNode : SMS_BaseClass
{
     String ClassDisplayName;
     String ClassName;
     UInt32 Flags;
     UInt32 NodeKey;
     String NodeName;
     UInt32 PaneOrder;
     UInt32 ParentNodeKey;
     String ResourceDisplayName;
     String ResultProperties[];
     String ResultPropertyIDName;
     String ScopePropertyIDName;
     String ScopePropertyNames[];
};

Methods

The SMS_PropertyDisplayNode class does not define any methods.

Properties

ClassDisplayName
Data type: String

Access type: Read/Write

Qualifiers: None

Not used.

ClassName
Data type: String

Access type: Read/Write

Qualifiers: None

Name of the inventory group class, for example, SMS_G_System_CDROM, that is displayed in the scope and details pane. This property is required for leaf nodes. The default value is "".

Flags
Data type: UInt32

Access type: Read/Write

Qualifiers: [bits]

Flags that control the behavior of the node. Possible values are listed below. The default value is Static (0).
- 0
  Static. Create a static node. Static nodes do not contain data.
- 1
  RootNode. Create a root node that exists at the same level as the Hardware node in Resource Explorer.
- 2
  LeafNode. Create a leaf node. Leaf nodes exist as children of user-defined static root nodes or as stand-alone leaf nodes at the top level in Resource Explorer.
- 3
  HasHistory. Not used.
- 6
  UserDefined. Create a user-defined node. This value is set for you by the SMS Provider. Do not set this bit.
Currently, you must use bits 0 and 1 together, which creates a static root node. The bits cannot be used separately. You can create only one static root node.

NodeKey
Data type: UInt32

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: [read, Not_null, key]

Node key that is auto-generated if you do not specify a value, which is the preferred behavior. If you do specify a value, it must be unique and greater than 1000. Values of 1000 and less are reserved for Configuration Manager. The default value is 0.

NodeName
Data type: String

Access type: Read/Write

Qualifiers: None

Name of the node as displayed in Resource Explorer. This is the literal name of the node, unless a parent node exists and it declares a value for ScopePropertyNames. The default value is "".

PaneOrder
Data type: UInt32

Access type: Read/Write

Qualifiers: None

Not used.

ParentNodeKey
Data type: UInt32

Access type: Read/Write

Qualifiers: None

Value of the NodeKey property of the parent node. This property defines the parent-child relationship. Specify a value of 0 to create your node at the top level. The default value is 0.

ResourceDisplayName
Data type: String

Access type: Read/Write

Qualifiers: None

Not used.

ResultProperties
Data type: String Array

Access type: Read/Write

Qualifiers: None

List of the properties from the class specified in ClassName that are displayed in the details pane. The specified property names form the column headings in the details pane.

ResultPropertyIDName
Data type: String

Access type: Read/Write

Qualifiers: None

Not used for user-defined nodes. The name of the property to be used in the WHERE clause of the result query. The default value is "".

This property limits the result instances, shown in the details pane for the selected node, to those with property values that equal the property value of the selected node. For example, the Manufacturer node under Software groups software by the CompanyName property of SMS_G_System_SoftwareProduct Server WMI Class. When a particular manufacturer is selected, the details pane shows the software products for that manufacturer.

ScopePropertyIDName
Data type: String

Access type: Read/Write

Qualifiers: None

Not used for user-defined nodes. The name of a property from the class specified in ClassName. The value of this property is used for the name of child nodes in the scope pane. If the property is blank, the child nodes use the NodeName value. The default value is "".

ScopePropertyNames
Data type: String Array

Access type: Read/Write

Qualifiers: None

Not used for user-defined nodes. The list of property names that are concatenated to form the name of the node in the scope pane. This property has similar functionality to and applies the same rules as the ResultProperties property, except that the result is the name of the node. The concatenation creates a space between value fields. If this property is blank, the child node uses the NodeName value.

Remarks

There are no special class qualifiers for this class. For more information about both the class qualifiers and the property qualifiers included in the Properties section, see Configuration Manager Class and Property Qualifiers.

Resource Explorer uses the following steps to determine the text to use for the column names. Each step is skipped in turn if the qualifier does not exist.

Use the resource string identified by the ResID and ResDLL qualifiers.
Use the string identified by the DisplayName qualifier.
Use the property name itself.
