Class CIM_StorageClientSettingData


CIM_ManagedElement
\_CIM_SettingData


Description

This class models host environment factors that influence the behavior of Storage Systems. For example, a disk array has different SCSI responses for clients (initiators) configured as AIX verses HPUX. Instances of this setting class can be associated via ElementSettingData to a storage system's LogicalPort, ProtocolController, or Volume instances when these elements have host awareness. These associations are created by the management instrumentation provider to reflect the current configuration. A client deletes/creates these associations to request changes in element host-awareness. This settings class can also be associated with StorageHardwareID instances when that HW ID is configured with host information. An instance of this setting may include several ClientType values if the storage system treats them identically. The storage system exposes all supported setting instances to a WBEM Enumerate request; the client uses the returned settings to determine which types are available.

InstanceID string
Within the scope of the instantiating Namespace, InstanceID opaquely and uniquely identifies an instance of this class. To ensure uniqueness within the NameSpace, the value of InstanceID should be constructed using the following"preferred"algorithm:<OrgID>:<LocalID>Where<OrgID>and<LocalID>are separated by a colon (:), and where<OrgID>must include a copyrighted, trademarked, or otherwise unique name that is owned by the business entity that is creating or defining the InstanceID or that is a registered ID assigned to the business entity by a recognized global authority. (This requirement is similar to the<Schema Name>_<Class Name>structure of Schema class names.) In addition, to ensure uniqueness,<OrgID>must not contain a colon (:). When using this algorithm, the first colon to appear in InstanceID must appear between<OrgID>and<LocalID>.<LocalID>is chosen by the business entity and should not be reused to identify different underlying (real-world) elements. If the above"preferred"algorithm is not used, the defining entity must assure thatthe resulting InstanceID is not reused across any InstanceIDs produced by this or other providers for the NameSpace of this instance.For DMTF-defined instances, the"preferred"algorithm must be used with the<OrgID>set to CIM.

This enumeration defines operating system, version, driver, and other host environment factors that influence the behavior exposed by storage systems. Values in this array are combined with data from the OtherClientTypeDescriptions property to provide complete information on the host environment.
OtherClientTypeDescriptions string
When the the corresponding array entry in ClientTypes[]is"Other", this entry provides a string describing the manufacturer and OS/Environment. When the corresponding ClientTypes[]entry is not"Other", this entry allows variations or qualifications of ClientTypes - for example, different versions of Solaris.
