Class CIM_SCSIMultipathSettings


  extends CIM_SettingData
A class derived from CIM_SettingData describing settings related to management of multiple paths to SCSI devices. It is associated to one of more instances of subclasses of LogicalDevice that represent SCSI logical units. If a LogicalDevice instance is associated to an instance of SCSIPathConfigurationService and is not associated to an instance of this class, the the default values for properties below and the polling values from the associated CIM_SCSIMultipathConfigurationCapabilities instance apply.

ChangeableTypeuint16
DescriptionstringEnumeration indicating the type of setting. 0 "Not Changeable - Persistent" indicates the instance of SettingData represents primordial settings and shall not be modifiable. 1 "Changeable - Transient" indicates the SettingData represents modifiable settings that are not persisted. Establishing persistent settings from transient settings may be supported. 2 "Changeable - Persistent" indicates the SettingData represents a persistent configuration that may be modified. 3 "Not Changeable - Transient" indicates the SettingData represents a snapshot of the settings of the associated ManagedElement and is not persistent.None TRANSLATABLE= true

ConfigurationNamestring
DescriptionstringAn instance of CIM_SettingData may correspond to a well-known configuration that exists for an associated CIM_ManagedElement. If the ConfigurationName property is non-NULL, the instance of CIM_SettingData shall correspond to a well-known configuration for a Managed Element, the value of the ConfigurationName property shall be the name of the configuration, and the ChangeableType property shall have the value 0 or 2. A value of NULL for the ConfigurationName property shall mean that the instance of CIM_SettingData does not correspond to a well-known configuration for a Managed Element or that this information is unknown.None TRANSLATABLE= true

CurrentPollingRateuint32
DescriptionstringThe current polling rate (in seconds) for auto-failback. This cannot exceed PollingRateMax. If this property and the service-wide Capabilities instance CurrentPollingRate are non-zero, this value has precedence for the associated logical units. The instrumentation should not instantiate this property if the value from CIM_SCSIMultipathConfigurationCapabilities is used for the associated logical units.None TRANSLATABLE= true

RequiredbooleantrueNone OVERRIDABLE= false
Generationuint64
DescriptionstringGeneration is an optional, monotonically increasing property that may be used to identify a particular generation of the resource represented by this class. If Generation is supported by the implementation, its value shall not be null. Except as otherwise specified, a value (including null) of Generation specified at creation time shall be replaced by null if Generation is not supported by the implementation or shall be a, (possibly different), non-null value if the implementation does support Generation. After creation and if supported, Generation shall be updated, at least once per access, whenever the represented resource is modified, regardless of the source of the modification. Note: the Generation value only needs to be updated once between references, even if the resource is updated many times. The key point is to assure that it will be different if there have been updates, not to count each update. Note: unless otherwise specified, the value of Generation within one instance is not required to be coordinated with the value of Generation in any other instance. Note:the semantics of the instance, (as defined by its creation class), define the underlying resource. That underlying resource may be a collection or aggregation of resources. And, in that case, the semantics of the instance further define when updates to constituent resources also require updates to the Generation of the collective resource. Default behavior of composite aggregations should be to update the Generation of the composite whenever the Generation of a component is updated. Subclasses may define additional requirements for updates on some or all of related instances. For a particular instance, the value of Generation may wrap through zero, but the elapsed time between wraps shall be greater than 10's of years. This class does not require Generation to be unique across instances of other classes nor across instances of the same class that have different keys. Generation shall be different across power cycles, resets, or reboots if any of those actions results in an update. Generation may be different across power cycles, resets, or reboots if those actions do not result in an update. If the Generation property of an instance is non-null, and if any attempt to update the instance includes the Generation property, then if it doesn't match the current value, the update shall fail. The usage of this property is intended to be further specified by applicable management profiles. Typically, a client will read the value of this property and then supply that value as input to an operation that modifies the instance in some means. This may be via an explicit parameter in an extrinsic method or via an embedded value in an extrinsic method or intrinsic operation. For example: a profile may require that an intrinsic instance modification supply the Generation property and that it must match for the modification to succeed.None TRANSLATABLE= true
ExperimentalbooleantrueTOSUBCLASS= falseNone
InstanceIDstring
DescriptionstringWithin the scope of the instantiating Namespace, InstanceID opaquely and uniquely identifies an instance of this class. To ensure uniqueness within the NameSpace, the value of InstanceID should be constructed using the following "preferred" algorithm: <OrgID>:<LocalID> Where <OrgID> and <LocalID> are separated by a colon (:), and where <OrgID> must include a copyrighted, trademarked, or otherwise unique name that is owned by the business entity that is creating or defining the InstanceID or that is a registered ID assigned to the business entity by a recognized global authority. (This requirement is similar to the <Schema Name>_<Class Name> structure of Schema class names.) In addition, to ensure uniqueness, <OrgID> must not contain a colon (:). When using this algorithm, the first colon to appear in InstanceID must appear between <OrgID> and <LocalID>. <LocalID> is chosen by the business entity and should not be reused to identify different underlying (real-world) elements. If the above "preferred" algorithm is not used, the defining entity must assure that the resulting InstanceID is not reused across any InstanceIDs produced by this or other providers for the NameSpace of this instance. For DMTF-defined instances, the "preferred" algorithm must be used with the <OrgID> set to CIM.None TRANSLATABLE= true

OtherCurrentLoadBalanceTypestring
DescriptionstringA string describing the current load balance algorithm if CurrentLoadBalanceType is 1 ('Other'). This string MUST be identical to one of the strings from CIM_SCSIMultipathConfigurationCapabilities OtherSupportedLoadBalanceAlgorithmNames.None TRANSLATABLE= true

PollingRateMaxuint32
DescriptionstringThe maximum polling rate (in seconds) supported by the driver if different from the service-wide max from the capabilities instance. Zero (0) indicates the driver either does not poll for autofailback or has not provided an interface to set the polling rate for multipath logical units. If this property and the service PollingRateMax are non-zero, this value has precedence for the associate logical units. The instrumentation should not instantiate this property if the value from CIM_SCSIMultipathConfigurationCapabilities is used for the associated logical units.None TRANSLATABLE= true
