CIM_ElementSoftwareIdentity class

ElementSoftwareIdentity allows a Managed Element to report its software related asset information (firmware, drivers, configuration software, and etc.)

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

• Properties

Properties

The CIM_ElementSoftwareIdentity class has these properties.

Antecedent

Data type: CIM_SoftwareIdentity

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Override ("Antecedent")

A LogicalElement's Software Asset.

Dependent

Data type: CIM_ManagedElement

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Override ("Dependent")

The ManagedElement that requires or uses the software.

OtherUpgradeCondition

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_ElementSoftwareIdentity.UpgradeCondition")

Describes the upgrade condition, when UpgradeCondition is set to 1 ("Other").

UpgradeCondition

Data type: uint16

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_ElementSoftwareIdentity.OtherUpgradeCondition")

Indicates the element's ability to upgrade this software asset. 'Resides off element' 2, indicates the persistence of the software is outside of the element. Typically for a element this software is part of the OperatingSystem is typically upgradeable. 'Owner Upgradeable' 3, indicates the persistence of the software is on the element and is upgradeable by the owner. 'FactoryUpgradeable' 4,indicates the persistence of the software is on the element and is upgradeable by the manufacturer. 'Not Upgradeable' 5, indicates the presistence of the software is on the element and is not upgradeable. (i.e. burned into a non replaceable ROM chip.)
