Versionstring2.8.0 CIM_ProtocolControllerForUnit
DescriptionstringThis association is used to define a relationship between a ProtocolController and an exposed Logical Unit (for example a Storage Volume or a MediaAccessDevice such as a tape drive). An example of the use of this association is SCSI, where it link the target controller and Logical Units. This subclass is provided so that an enumeration of related controllers and units can be performed without retrieving any connected ports or other controllers. CIM_ProtocolControllerForUnit
Associationbooleantrue CIM_ProtocolControllerForUnit
DescriptionstringThis association indicates a subclass of LogicalDevice (for example a Storage Volume) is connected through a specific ProtocolController. In many situations (for example storage LUN masking), there may be many of these associations used to relate to different objects. Therefore subclasses have been defined to optimize enumeration of the associations. CIM_ProtocolControllerForDevice
Associationbooleantrue CIM_ProtocolControllerForDevice
Associationbooleantrue CIM_Dependency
DescriptionstringCIM_Dependency is a generic association used to establish dependency relationships between ManagedElements. CIM_Dependency

DescriptionstringAddress of the associated Device in the context of the Antecedent Controller. CIM_ProtocolControllerForDevice

Property AccessPriority Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringThis property describes the priority given to accesses of the device through this Controller. The highest priority path will have the lowest value for this parameter. CIM_ProtocolControllerForDevice

Property AccessState Qualifiers
NameTypeValueFrom Class
DescriptionstringThe State property indicates whether the Controller is actively commanding or accessing the device (value=2) or not (value=3). Also, the value, " Unknown " (0), can be defined. This information is necessary when a LogicalDevice can be commanded by, or accessed through, multiple ProtocolControllers. CIM_ProtocolControllerForDevice
