CIM_IndicationFilter Superclass: CIM_ManagedElement
CIM_IndicationFilter defines the criteria for generating an Indication and what data should be returned in the Indication. It is derived from CIM_ManagedElement to allow modeling the dependency of the filter on a specific service.
Qualifiers:Version ( "2.11.0" )
Parameters (local in grey)
MaxLen ( 256 )
Key
string SystemName ;
A System's Name. The Filter is defined in the context of a CIM_System, where it is hosted or to which it applies. In a future release, a weak relationship will be explicitly added to the model. This is not done now to allow further refinement of the Filter definition and its inheritance tree. Keys are defined now to allow the class to be instantiated.
Required
ModelCorrespondence { "CIM_IndicationFilter.QueryLanguage" }
string Query ;
A query expression that defines the condition(s) under which Indications will be generated. For some Indication classes, the query expression may also define the instance properties to be copied to the CIM_InstIndication's SourceInstance and PreviousInstance properties. Query language semantics include projection (e.g., Select), range (e.g., From) and predicate (e.g., Where).
When used with QueryLanguage set to CQL or CQLT, the FROM clause shall contain at least one subclass of Indication and may contain any number of other classes or subqueries. If only one subclass of Indication is named, it defines the Indication that this Instance of IndicationFilter will produce. If more than one subclass of Indication is named, then one of them must be named explicitly in the select-list.
The select-list must refer explicitly or implicitly to exactly one Indication subclass. In addition, it shall conform to one of several options:
1) only a '*': This may only be used if the Indication subclass is the only entry on the FROM list.
2) only a '<Indicationclass or alias>.*': This form may be used if the FROM clause contains more than one Indication subclass.
3) a list of the form '<propertyname>*[','[<literal> AS ]<propertyname>]': This form may only be used if the Indication subclass is the only entry on the FROM list. In this form, the literal is assigned to the named property of the selected Indication subclass
4) a list of the form '<Indicationname>.<propertyname> *[',' [<Indicationname>.<propertyname> |'': <literal> AS <propertyname> | <fromname>.<propertyname> AS <propertyname> ] ]' : The first term selects the appropriate Indication subclass to produce. Subsequent terms allow other properties of that indication, or allow a literal or property of another class to be assigned to the output as one of the properties of the selected Indication subclass.
Note that in all cases, only the property names of the selected Indication subclass may be referred to in the select-list.
Key
string Name ;
The name of the filter.
Required
ModelCorrespondence { "CIM_IndicationFilter.Query" }
string QueryLanguage ;
The language in which the query is expressed.
The value 'DMTF:CQL' refers to the CIM Query Language defined by DSP0200.
MaxLen ( 256 )
Key
string SystemCreationClassName ;
A System's CreationClassName. The Filter is defined in the context of a CIM_System, where it is hosted or to which it applies. In a future release, a weak relationship will be explicitly added to the model. This is not done now to allow further refinement of the Filter definition and its inheritance tree. Keys are defined now to allow the class to be instantiated.
string SourceNamespace ;
The path to a local namespace where the Indications originate. If NULL, the namespace of the Filter registration is assumed.
MaxLen ( 256 )
Key
string CreationClassName ;
Indicates the name of the class or the subclass used in the creation of an instance. When used with the other key properties of this class, it allows all instances of this class and its subclasses to be uniquely identified.
MaxLen ( 64 )
string Caption ;
The Caption property is a short textual description (one- line string) of the object.
string Description ;
The Description property provides a textual description of the object.
string ElementName ;
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.
Note that the Name property of ManagedSystemElement 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 can be present in both the Name and ElementName properties.
