CIM_ManagedSystemElement class
The base class for the System Element hierarchy. Any distinguishable system component is a candidate for inclusion in this class. Examples include software components, such as files; devices, such as disk drives and controllers; and physical components, such as chips and cards.
The following syntax is simplified from Managed Object Format (MOF) code and includes all of the inherited properties.

ElementName
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
Contains 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.
HealthState
-
Data type: uint16
-
Access type: Read-only
Indicates the current health of the element. This attribute expresses the health of this element but not necessarily that of its sub-components.
Unknown (0)
The implementation cannot report on HealthState at this time.
OK (5)
The element is fully functional and is operating within normal operational parameters and without error.
Degraded/Warning (10)
The element is in working order and all functionality is provided. However, the element is not working to the best of its abilities. For example, the element might not be operating at optimal performance or it might be reporting recoverable errors
Minor failure (15)
All functionality is available but some might be degraded.
Major failure (20)
The element is failing. It is possible that some or all of the functionality of this component is degraded or not working.
Critical failure (25)
The element is non-functional and recovery might not be possible.
Non-recoverable error (30)
The element has completely failed, and recovery is not possible. All functionality provided by this element has been lost.
DMTF Reserved
DMTF has reserved the unused portion of the continuum for additional HealthStates values in the future.
InstallDate
-
Data type: datetime
-
Access type: Read-only
Indicates when the object was installed. The lack of a value does not indicate that the object is not installed.
InstanceID
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
Uniquely and opaquely identifies an instance of this class within the scope of the containing Namespace.
[!Important]
In order to ensure uniqueness within the Namespace, the value of InstanceID should be constructed in the following pattern:
OrgID:LocalID
OrgID must include a copyrighted, trademarked or otherwise unique name that is owned by the business entity defining the InstanceID, or be a registered ID that is assigned by a recognized global authority. This is similar to the structure of Schema class names. In addition, to ensure uniqueness the first colon in InstanceID must be between the OrgID andLocalID. Therefore the OrgID must not contain a colon (':').
LocalID is chosen by the business entity and should not be re-used to identify different underlying real-world elements.
If the preceding pattern 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 Namespace.
For Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF) defined instances, the pattern must be used with the OrgID set to CIM.
This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedElement.
Name
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: MaxLen (1024)
Indicates the user-friendly name for this instance of a job. In addition, the user-friendly name can be used as a property for a search or query.
[!Tip]
Name does not have to be unique within a namespace.
OperatingStatus
-
Data type: uint16
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_EnabledLogicalElement.EnabledState")
Indicates the current operational condition of the element. This property can be used to provide more detail about the current state of the element. It can also indicate transitional states. A NULL value indicates that the instrumentation does not support this property.
Unknown (0)
Indicates that the instrumentation cannot report on the OperatingStatus property at this time.
Not Available (1)
Indicates that the instrumentation is capable of reporting this property, but intentionally does not report it for this element.
Servicing (2)
Indicates that the element is in process to be configured, maintained, cleaned, or otherwise administered.
Starting (3)
Indicates that the element is being initialized.
Stopping (4)
Indicates that the element is being brought to an orderly stop.
Stopped (5)
Indicates that the element is intentionally stopped.
Aborted (6)
Indicates that the element stopped in an unexpected way.
Dormant (7)
Indicates that the element is inactive or quiesced.
Completed (8)
Indicates that the element completed its operation. We recommend using a PrimaryStatus property value of OK, Error, or Degraded to indicate success or failure of the operation.
Migrating (9)
Indicates that the element is being moved between host elements.
Emigrating (10)
Indicates that the element is being moved away from the host element.
Immigrating (11)
Indicates that the element is being moved to a new host element.
Snapshotting (12)
Indicates that a snapshot copy of the element is being created.
Shutting Down (13)
Indicates that the element is being brought to an abrupt stop.
In Test (14)
Indicates that the element is performing test functions.
Transitioning (15)
Indicates that the element is between states and is not fully available in either state. Use another value that indicates a more specific transition if one is available.
In Service (16)
Indicates that the element is in service and operational.

OperationalStatus
-
Data type: uint16 array
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: ArrayType ("Indexed"), ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_ManagedSystemElement.StatusDescriptions")
Contains indicators of the current status of the element. The first value of OperationalStatus should contain the primary status for the element.
Note
OperationalStatus replaces the deprecated Status property. Due to the widespread use of the existing Status property in management applications, Microsoft strongly recommends that providers or instrumentation provide both the Status and OperationalStatus properties. When instrumented, Status (because it is single-valued) should also provide the primary status of the element.
Unknown (0)
Indicates the implementation cannot report on OperationalStatus at this time.
Other (1)
Indicates an undefined state.
OK (2)
Indicates full functionality without errors.
Degraded (3)
Indicates the element is working and all functionality is provided. However, the element is not working to the best of its abilities. For example, the element might not be operating at optimal performance or it might be reporting recoverable errors
Stressed (4)
Indicates that the element is functioning, but needs attention. Overload and overheated are examples of Stressed states.
Predictive Failure (5)
Indicates that an element is functioning nominally but predicting a failure in the near future.
Error (6)
Indicates that an error has occurred.
Non-Recoverable Error (7)
A nonrecoverable error has occurred.
Starting (8)
The job is starting.
Stopping (9)
The job is stopping.
Stopped (10)
The element has been intentionally stopped.
In Service (11)
Indicates the element is being configured, maintained, cleaned, or otherwise administered.
No Contact (12)
Indicates that the monitoring system has knowledge of this element, but has never been able to establish communications with it.
Lost Communication (13)
Indicates that the job is known to exist and has been contacted successfully in the past, but is currently unreachable.
Aborted (14)
Indicates the job stopped in an unexpected way. The state and configuration of the job might need to be updated.
Dormant (15)
Indicates that the job is inactive.
Supporting Entity in Error (16)
Indicates that an element on which this job depends is in error. This element may be OK but is unable to function because of the state of a dependent element. An example is a network service or endpoint that cannot function due to lower-layer networking problems.
Completed (17)
Indicates that the job has completed its operation. This value should be combined with either OK, ErrorError, or Degraded so that a client can tell if the complete operation Completed with OK (passed), Completed with Error (failed), or Completed with Degraded (the operation finished, but it did not complete OK or did not report an error).
Power Mode (18)
"Power Mode" indicates that the element has additional power model information contained in the associated PowerManagementService association.
DMTF Reserved
DMTF has reserved this portion of the range for additional OperationalStatus values in the future.
Vendor Reserved
Microsoft has reserved the unused portion of the range for additional OperationalStatus values in the future.

This property is deprecated and replaced by the OperationalStatus property. If you choose to use the Status property for backward compatibility it should be secondary to the OperationalStatus property.
The possible values are.
("OK")
("Error")
("Degraded")
("Unknown")
("Pred Fail")
("Starting")
("Stopping")
("Service")
("Stressed")
("NonRecover")
("No Contact")

-
Data type: string array
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: ArrayType ("Indexed"), ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_ManagedSystemElement.OperationalStatus")
Indicates descriptions of the corresponding values in the OperationalStatus array. For example, if an element in the OperationalStatus property contains the value Stopping, then the element at the same array index in this property might contain an explanation as to why an object is being stopped.
