CIM_StorageReplicationCapabilities class

This subclass defines the replication capabilities of a StorageConfigurationService. Multiple instances of StorageReplicationCapabilities may be associated with a StorageConfigurationService using ElementCapabilities. A provider should create one instance for each supported SynchronizationType.

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

Properties

The CIM_StorageReplicationCapabilities class has these properties.

AlternateReplicationServicePointAccess

Data type: uint16

Access type: Read-only

If the primary instance is unavailable, the provider may indicate an alternate instance. Values: None: no alternate exists. Source: invoke to source element service instance. Target: invoke to target element service instance. Proxy: find and invoke alternate proxy service instance.

InstanceID

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Key

Within the scope of the instantiating Namespace, InstanceID opaquely and uniquely identifies an instance of this class. In order 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 creating/defining the InstanceID, or is a registered ID that is assigned to the business entity by a recognized global authority (This 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 assure that the resultant InstanceID is not re-used across any InstanceIDs produced by this or other providers for this instance's NameSpace. For DMTF defined instances, the 'preferred' algorithm MUST be used with the <OrgID> set to 'CIM'.

This property is inherited from CIM_Capabilities.
