CIM_Configuration class

The CIM_Configuration object allows the grouping of parameter sets (defined in CIM_Setting objects) and dependencies for one or more managed system elements. This object represents a certain behavior, or a desired functional state for the managed system elements. The desired functional state is typically driven by external requirements, such as time or location. For example, to connect to a mail system from home, a dependency on a modem exists; whereas, a dependency on a network adapter exists at work. Settings for the pertinent logical devices (in this example, POTS modem and network adapter) can be defined and aggregated by CIM_Configuration. Therefore, two "Connect to Mail" configurations can be defined by grouping the relevant dependencies and CIM_Setting objects.

The following syntax is simplified from Managed Object Format (MOF) code and includes all inherited properties. Properties are listed in alphabetic order, not MOF order.
