Remarks

The DS is essentially a hierarchical store of objects. Those objects that can appear at a nonleaf level in the hierarchy are called "containers". The structure of this hierarchy is further controlled by the Poss-Superiors and System-Poss-Superiors properties of a class in the schema. These, taken together, specify the set of classes whose instances can be contained within an instance of a container class. This specification can be modeled as a CIM association in the following way as instances of the static association class DS_LDAP_Class_Containment.

The association class provider supports the GetObjectAsync and CreateClassEnumAsync methods.
