Name | Data Type | Value | Scope | Flavors |
Caption | string |
Description | string | The Caption property is a short textual description (one- line string) of the object. | None | TRANSLATABLE= true |
MaxLen | uint32 | 64 | None | None |
CreationClassName | string |
Description | string | CreationClassName indicates the name of the class or the subclass used in the creation of an instance. When used with the other key properties of this class, this property allows all instances of this class and its subclasses to be uniquely identified. | None | TRANSLATABLE= true |
Key | boolean | true | None | OVERRIDABLE= false

MaxLen | uint32 | 256 | None | None |
Description | string |
Description | string | The Description property provides a textual description of the object. | None | TRANSLATABLE= true |

MaxLen | uint32 | 64 | None | None |
Propagated | string | CIM_LogicalDevice.DeviceID | None | OVERRIDABLE= false
|
ElementName | string |
Description | string | A user-friendly name for the object. This property allows each instance to define a user-friendly name in addition to its key properties, identity data, and description information.
Note that the Name property of ManagedSystemElement is also defined as a user-friendly name. But, it is often subclassed to be a Key. It is not reasonable that the same property can convey both identity and a user-friendly name, without inconsistencies. Where Name exists and is not a Key (such as for instances of LogicalDevice), the same information can be present in both the Name and ElementName properties. Note that if there is an associated instance of CIM_EnabledLogicalElementCapabilities, restrictions on this properties may exist as defined in ElementNameMask and MaxElementNameLen properties defined in that class. | None | TRANSLATABLE= true |
InstanceID | string |
Description | string | InstanceID is an optional property that may be used to opaquely and uniquely identify an instance of this class within the scope of the instantiating Namespace. Various subclasses of this class may override this property to make it required, or a key. Such subclasses may also modify the preferred algorithms for ensuring uniqueness that are defined below.
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 not null and 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.
If not set to null for DMTF-defined instances, the "preferred" algorithm must be used with the <OrgID> set to CIM. | None | TRANSLATABLE= true |

Method Name | Return Type | Qualifiers |

ResetCounter() | uint32 |
Description | string | Method to reset the statistical counters. The method takes one parameter as input - an integer indicating which counter to reset. For this input parameter, 0 indicates all, 1-2 and 5 reset the 'read operation'-related counters, 3-4 and 6 reset the 'write operation'-related counters, and 7-8 reset the seek-related counters. The method returns 0 if successful, 1 if not supported, and any other value if an error occurred. A method is specified so that the Device's instrumentation can also reset its internal processing and counters.
In a subclass, the set of possible return codes should be specified in a ValueMap qualifier on the method. The strings to which the ValueMap contents are 'translated' can be specified as a Values array qualifier. | None | TRANSLATABLE= true |
