CIM_SystemSpecificCollection class

Represents a collection of objects that are contained within a system.

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

Properties

The CIM_SystemSpecificCollection class has these properties.

Caption

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MaxLen (64)

The Caption property is a short textual description (one- line string) of the object.

This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedElement.

Description

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

The Description property provides a textual description of the object.

This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedElement.

ElementName

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

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.

This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedElement.

InstanceID

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: key, Override ("InstanceID")

Within 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 unique name. It can be a copyrighted, trademarked, or otherwise unique name that is owned by the business entity that is creating or defining the InstanceID. Or, it could be a registered ID that is 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 re-used to identify different underlying (real-world) elements. If the above \'preferred\' algorithm is not used, the defining entity must ensure that the resulting InstanceID is not re-used as any of 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\'.
