Versionstring2.6.0 CIM_Configuration
DescriptionstringThe Configuration object allows the grouping of sets of parameters (defined in Setting objects) and dependencies for one or more ManagedSystemElements. It represents a certain behavior, or a desired functional state for the ManagedSystem Elements. Note that the CIM_Profile class uses simplified naming/identity and collection algorithms as compared to CIM_Configuration. The desired functional state of the Configuration 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, but a dependency on a network adapter exists at ’ work ’ . Settings for the pertinent LogicalDevices (in this example, POTSModem and NetworkAdapter) can be defined and aggregated by the Configuration. Therefore, two ’ Connect to Mail ’ Configurations may be defined grouping the relevant dependencies and Setting objects. CIM_Configuration
DescriptionstringManagedElement is an abstract class that provides a common superclass (or top of the inheritance tree) for the non-association classes in the CIM Schema. CIM_ManagedElement

Property Description Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringThe Description property provides a textual description of the object. CIM_ManagedElement

Property ElementName Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringA 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. Note that ManagedSystemElement ’ s Name property is also defined as a user-friendly name. But, it is often subclassed to be a Key. It is not reasonable that the same property can convey both identity and a user friendly name, without inconsistencies. Where Name exists and is not a Key (such as for instances of LogicalDevice), the same information MAY be present in both the Name and ElementName properties. CIM_ManagedElement
