Class CIM_RegisteredProfile


CIM_ManagedElement


Description

A RegisteredProfile describes a set of CIM Schema classes with required properties and/or methods, necessary to manage a real-world entity or to support a usage scenario, in an interoperable fashion. RegisteredProfiles can be defined by the DMTF or other standards organizations. Note that this class should not be confused with CIM_Profile, which collects SettingData instances, to be applied as a'configuration profile'for an element.A RegisteredProfile is a named'standard'for CIM-based management of a particular System, subsystem, Service or other entity, for a specified set of uses. It is a complete, standalone definition, as opposed to the subclass RegisteredSubProfile, which requires a scoping profile for context.The uses for a RegisteredProfile or SubProfile MUST be specified in the document that defines the profile. Examples of Profiles are to manage various aspects of an Operating System, Storage Array, or Database. The name of the profile is defined and scoped by its authoring organization.

Key
InstanceID string
Within the scope of the instantiating Namespace, InstanceID opaquely and uniquely identifies an instance of this class. In order 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 creating/defining the InstanceID, or is a registered ID that is assigned to the business entity by a recognized global authority. (This 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 organizational entity and SHOULD not be re-used to identify different underlying (real-world) elements. If the above'preferred'algorithm is not used, the defining entity MUST assure that the resultant InstanceID is not re-used across any InstanceIDs produced by this or other providers for this instance's NameSpace.For DMTF defined instances, the'preferred'algorithm MUST be used with the<OrgID>set to'CIM'.
Read Only
AdvertiseTypeDescriptions string
A free-form string providing additional information related to the AdvertiseType. A description MUST be provided when the AdvertiseType is 1,"Other". An entry in this array corresponds to the entry in the AdvertiseTypes array at the same index. It is not expected that additional descriptions are needed if the Type is set to"Not Advertised"or"SLP". However, as the SLP template expands, or as other advertisement mechanisms are defined, support for additional descriptions may be needed. This array is defined to support this.
AdvertiseTypes uint16
Other1
Not Advertised2
SLP3
This property signifies the advertisement for the profile information. It is used by the advertising services of the WBEM infrastructure to determine what should be advertised, via what mechanisms. The property is an array so that the profile MAY be advertised using several mechanisms. Note: If this property is null/uninitialized, this is equivalent to specifying the value 2,"Not Advertised".
OtherRegisteredOrganization string
Max Length256
A free-form string providing a description of the organization when 1,"Other", is specified for the RegisteredOrganization.
RegisteredName string
Max Length256
The name of this registered profile. Since multiple versions can exist for the same RegisteredName, the combination of RegisteredName, RegisteredOrganization, and RegisteredVersion MUST uniquely identify the registered profile within the scope of the organization.

RegisteredVersion string
The version of this profile. The string representing the version MUST be in the form:M +"."+ N +"."+ UWhere:M - The major version (in numeric form) describing the profile's creation or last modification.N - The minor version (in numeric form) describing the profile's creation or last modification.U - The update (e.g. errata, patch, ..., in numeric form) describing the profile's creation or last modification.
