Class CIM_SCSIInterface


  extends CIM_ControlledBy (Association)
Note: The use of this class is deprecated in lieu of ProtocolControllerForUnit, because the SCSIController class involved in this association is itself deprecated. The protocol-related aspects of SCSI are better reflected in the new classes and associations. Deprecated description: SCSIInterface is a ControlledBy relationship that indicates which Devices are accessed through a SCSIController and describes the characteristics of this access.

NameData TypeQualifiers
NameData TypeValueScopeFlavors
AccessModeuint16
DescriptionstringThis property describes the accessibility of the device through the antecedent controller.None TRANSLATABLE= true
ValueMapstring2, 3, 4None None
ValuesstringReadWrite, ReadOnly, NoAccessNone TRANSLATABLE= true
AccessPriorityuint16
DescriptionstringThe property describes the priority given to accesses of the device through this controller. The highest priority path will have the lowest value for this parameter.None TRANSLATABLE= true
AccessStateuint16
DescriptionstringThe State property indicates whether the Controller is actively commanding or accessing the Device (value=1) or not (value=2). Also, the value, "Unknown" (0), can be defined. This information is necessary when a LogicalDevice can be commanded by, or accessed through, multiple Controllers.None TRANSLATABLE= true
ValueMapstring0, 1, 2None None
ValuesstringUnknown, Active, InactiveNone TRANSLATABLE= true
DeviceNumberstring
DescriptionstringAddress of associated Device in context of the antecedent Controller.None TRANSLATABLE= true
InitiatorIduint32
DeprecatedstringNo ValueTOSUBCLASS= falseNone
DescriptionstringNote: The use of this method is deprecated. Deprecated description: The SCSI Initiator ID.None TRANSLATABLE= true
MappingStringsstringMIF.DMTF|Bus Port|004.5None None
MaxQueueDepthuint32
DeprecatedstringNo ValueTOSUBCLASS= falseNone
DescriptionstringNote: The use of this method is deprecated. Deprecated description: Maximum number of Command Descriptor Blocks (CDBs) that can be supported by the target. This data cannot be obtained under all circumstances.None TRANSLATABLE= true
NegotiatedDataWidthuint32
DescriptionstringWhen several bus and connection data widths are possible, the NegotiatedDataWidth property defines the one that is in use between the Devices. Data width is specified in bits. If data width is not negotiated, or if this information is not available or not important to Device management, the property should be set to 0.None TRANSLATABLE= true
MappingStringsstringMIF.DMTF|Bus Port Association|001.3None None
PUnitstringbitNone None
UnitsstringBitsNone TRANSLATABLE= true
NegotiatedSpeeduint64
DescriptionstringWhen several bus and connection speeds are possible, the NegotiatedSpeed property defines the one that is in use between the Devices. Speed is specified in bits per second. If connection or bus speeds are not negotiated, or if this information is not available or not important to Device management, the property should be set to 0.None TRANSLATABLE= true
MappingStringsstringMIF.DMTF|Bus Port Association|001.2None None
PUnitstringbit / secondNone None
UnitsstringBits per SecondNone TRANSLATABLE= true
NumberOfHardResetsuint32
CounterbooleantrueNone None
DescriptionstringNumber of hard resets issued by the Controller. A hard reset returns the Device to its initialization or boot-up state. All internal Device state information and data are lost.None TRANSLATABLE= true
NumberOfSoftResetsuint32
CounterbooleantrueNone None
DescriptionstringNumber of soft resets issued by the Controller. A soft reset does not completely clear current Device state or data. Exact semantics are dependent on the Device and on the protocols and mechanisms used to communicate with the Device.None TRANSLATABLE= true
QueueDepthLimituint32
DeprecatedstringNo ValueTOSUBCLASS= falseNone
DescriptionstringNote: The use of this method is deprecated. Deprecated description: The maximum number of concurrent Command Descriptor Blocks (CDBs) that the initiator will send to the target. This value should never be greater than MaxQueueDepth.None TRANSLATABLE= true

DeprecatedstringNo ValueTOSUBCLASS= falseNone
DescriptionstringNote: The use of this method is deprecated. Deprecated description: SCSIReservation indicates the type of SCSI reservation that currently exists between the source and destination.None TRANSLATABLE= true
ValueMapstring0, 1, 2, 3None None
ValuesstringUnknown, None, Simple, PersistentNone TRANSLATABLE= true
SCSIRetriesuint32
CounterbooleantrueNone None
DeprecatedstringNo ValueTOSUBCLASS= falseNone
DescriptionstringNote: The use of this method is deprecated. Deprecated description: Number of SCSI retries that have occurred since the last hard or soft reset that is related to the controlled Device. The time of last reset is indicated in the TimeOfDeviceReset property, inherited from the ControlledBy association.None TRANSLATABLE= true
MappingStringsstringMIF.DMTF|Mass Storage Statistics|001.18None None
SCSISignaluint16
DeprecatedstringNo ValueTOSUBCLASS= falseNone
DescriptionstringNote: The use of this method is deprecated. Deprecated description: The SCSI signal characteristics being used for this connection. The value listed here must also be listed in the SignalCapabilities field of the SCSIController.None TRANSLATABLE= true
