  • Article

Represents an association between a managed element and its associated setting data. This association also describes whether this is a default or current setting.

Syntax

[Association, Abstract, Version("2.19.1"), UMLPackagePath("CIM::Core::Settings"), AMENDMENT]
class CIM_ElementSettingData
{
  CIM_ManagedElement REF ManagedElement;
  CIM_SettingData    REF SettingData;
  uint16                 IsDefault;
  uint16                 IsCurrent;

Properties

The CIM_ElementSettingData class has these properties.

IsCurrent

Data type: uint16

Access type: Read-only

Indicates whether the referenced setting is currently being used by the element.

Unknown (0)

Is Current (1)

Is Not Current (2)

IsDefault

Data type: uint16

Access type: Read-only

Indicating whether the setting is a default setting for the element.

Unknown (0)

Is Default (1)

Is Not Default (2)

IsNext

Data type: uint16

Access type: Read-only

A flag that indicates when and how often to apply the setting.

For example, the setting could be applied on a re-initialization, reset, reconfiguration request. This could be a permanent setting, or a setting used only one time, as indicated by the flag. If it is a permanent setting then the setting is applied every time the managed element reinitializes, until this flag is manually reset. However, if it is single use, then the flag is automatically cleared after the settings are applied. In addition, if this flag is set to value other than 0 (Unknown), then this takes precedence over a SettingData property that is set to "Default".

If the managed element is a computer system, and the value of this flag is "Is Next", then the setting will be effective next time the system resets. And, unless this flag is changed, it will persist for subsequent system resets. However, if this flag is set to "Is Next For Single Use", then this setting will only be used once and the flag would be reset after that to 2 (Is Not Next). So, in the above example, if the system reboots in a quick succession, the setting will not be used at the second reboot.

Unknown (0)

Is Next (1)

Is Not Next (2)

Is Next For Single Use (3)
