  • Service Processor

Table 115 Attributes for Oracle_ComputerSystem

Property
Data Type
Description
Oracle ILOM Value
CreationClassName
string
The CreationClassName property is a mandatory key property.

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, this property allows all instances of this class and its subclasses to be uniquely identified.

Set value to: Oracle_ComputerSystem.
Name
string
The Name attribute is a mandatory key CIM property.

The inherited Name serves as the key of a system instance in an enterprise environment.

Implementation-dependent value representing unique ID of the ComputerSystem.
Dedicated[]
string
The Dedicated[] property enumerates the purposes to which the ComputerSystem is dedicated, if any, and what functionality is provided.

Functionality definitions can include any of the following:

{Not Dedicated, Unknown, Other, Storage, Router, Switch, Layer 3 Switch, Central Office Switch, Hub, Access Server, Firewall, Print, I/O, Web Caching, Management, Block Server, File Server, Mobile User Device, Repeater, Bridge/Extender, Gateway, Storage Virtualizer, Media Library, ExtenderNode, NAS Head, Self-contained NAS, UPS, IP Phone, Management Controller, Chassis Manager, Host-based RAID controller, Storage Device Enclosure, Desktop, Laptop, Virtual Tape Library, Virtual Library System, DMTF Reserved, Vendor Reserved}

Values for these functionality definitions are as follows:

{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36..32567, 32568..65535}

For ComputerSystem instance representing the controller, the Dedicated[0] value will be set to 28 (Management Controller).

For ComputerSystem instance representing the controllee, Dedicated[0] to 0 (Not Dedicated).

ElementName
string
The ElementName property is a user-friendly name.

This property allows each instance to define a user-friendly name in addition to its key properties, identity data, and description information.


Note - 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.


For ComputerSystem instance representing the controller, the ElementName will be set to the controller or host name.

For ComputerSystem instance representing the controllee, the ElementName will be set to the host product name.

EnabledDefault
string
The EnabledDefault property is an enumerated value indicating an administrator's default or startup configuration for the enabled state of an element. By default, the element is Enabled (value=2).

Element definitions include any of the following:

{Enabled, Disabled, Not Applicable, Enabled but Offline, No Default, Quiesce, DMTF Reserved, Vendor Reserved}

Values for the element definitions are as follows:

{2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, .., 32768..65535}

EnabledDefault will be set to default value 2 (Enabled).
EnabledState
uint16[]
EnabledState is an integer enumeration that indicates the enabled and disabled states of an element. It can also indicate the transitions between these requested states. For example, Shutting Down (value=4) and Starting (value=10) are transient states between enabled and disabled. The following text briefly summarizes the various enabled and disabled states:
  • Enabled (2) indicates that the element is or could be executing commands, will process any queued commands, and queues new requests.

  • Disabled (3) indicates that the element will not execute commands and will drop any new requests.

  • Shutting Down (4) indicates that the element is in the process of going to a disabled state.

  • Not Applicable (5) indicates that the element does not support being enabled or disabled.

  • Enabled but Offline (6) indicates that the element might be completing commands, and will drop any new requests.

  • Test (7) indicates that the element is in a test state.

  • Deferred (8) indicates that the element might be completing commands, but will queue any new requests.

  • Quiesce (9) indicates that the element is enabled but in a restricted mode.

  • Starting (10) indicates that the element is in the process of going to an enabled state. New requests are queued.

The following values apply: {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11..32767, 32768..65535}

Value definitions include: {Unknown, Other, Enabled, Disabled, Shutting Down, Not Applicable, Enabled but Offline, In Test, Deferred, Quiesce, Starting, DMTF Reserved, Vendor Reserved}

For ComputerSystem instance representing the controller, the EnabledState value will be set to 2 (Enabled).

For ComputerSystem instance representing the controllee, the EnabledState value will be set to appropriate value depending on the power state of the controllee.

HealthState
uint16[]
Indicates the current health of the element. This attribute expresses the health of this element but not necessarily that of its subcomponents. The following values apply:
  • 0 (Unknown) - The implementation cannot report on HealthState at this time.

  • 5 (OK) - The element is fully functional and is operating within normal operational parameters and without error.

  • 10 (Degraded/Warning) - The element is in working order, and all functionality is provided. However, the element is not working to the best of its abilities. For example, the element might not be operating at optimal performance, or it might be reporting recoverable errors.

  • 15 (Minor Failure) - All functionality is available, but some might be degraded.

  • 20 (Major Failure) - The element is failing. It is possible that some or all of the functionality of this component is degraded or not working.

  • 25 (Critical Failure) - The element is nonfunctional, and recovery might not be possible.

  • 30 (Non-Recoverable Error) - The element has completely failed, and recovery is not possible. All functionality provided by this element has been lost.

DMTF has reserved the unused portion of the continuum for additional health states in the future.

For ComputerSystem instance representing the controller EnabledState will be set to 5 (OK).

For ComputerSystem instance representing the controllee HealthState will be set to appropriate value depending on the value of OperationalStatus property.

IdentifyingDescriptions
string
The IdentifyingDescriptions property is an array of free-form strings providing explanations and details behind the entries in the OtherIdentifyingInfo array.

Note - Each entry of this array is related to the entry in OtherIdentifyingInfo that is located at the same index.


For ComputerSystem instance representing the controller, the IdentifyingDescriptions will not be set.

For ComputerSystem instance representing the controllee, the IdentifyingDescriptions will be set to the following value: CIM:Model:SerialNumber

OperationalStatus
uint16[]
The OperationalStatus indicates the current statuses of the element. Various operational statuses are defined. Many of the enumeration's values are self-explanatory. However, a few are not and are described here in more detail in the CIM_ComputerSystem.mof described in the DMTF CIM schema v2.18.1.

Element definitions include any of the following:

{Unknown, Other, OK, Degraded, Stressed, Predictive Failure, Error, Non-Recoverable Error, Starting, Stopping, Stopped, In Service, No Contact, Lost Communication, Aborted, Dormant, Supporting Entity in Error, Completed, Power Mode, DMTF Reserved, Vendor Reserved}

Values for the above definitions are:

{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, .., 0x8000..}

For ComputerSystem instance representing the controller, the OperationalStatus[0] will be set to 2 (OK).

For ComputerSystem instance representing the controllee, the OperationalStatus[0] will be set to appropriate value depending on the power status (starting, stopping) or whether the host has incurred an error or is unknown.

OtherEnabledState
string
The OtherEnabledState property is a string that describes the enabled or disabled state of the element when the EnabledState property is set to 1 (Other). This property must be set to null when EnabledState is any value other than 1.
Will be set to empty string.
OtherIdentifyingInfo
string[]
The OtherIdentifyingInfo property captures additional data, beyond system name information, that could be used to identify a ComputerSystem. One example would be to hold the Fibre Channel World-Wide Name (WWN) of a node. Note that if only the Fibre Channel name is available and is unique (able to be used as the system key), then this property would be NULL and the WWN would become the system key, its data placed in the Name property.
For ComputerSystem instance representing the controller, the OtherIdentifyingInfo will not be set.

For ComputerSystem instance representing the controllee, the OtherIdentifyingInfo[0] will be set to the following value:

<product-name>:<SerialNumber>

For more details, refer to the DMTF Base Server profile.

RequestedState
uint16[]
The RequestedState property is an integer enumeration that indicates the last requested or desired state for the element, irrespective of the mechanism through which it was requested. The actual state of the element is represented by EnabledState. This property is provided to compare the last requested and current enabled or disabled states.

Element definitions include any of the following:

{Unknown, Enabled, Disabled, Shut Down, No Change, Offline, Test, Deferred, Quiesce, Reboot, Reset, Not Applicable, DMTF Reserved, Vendor Reserved}

Values for these definitions are as follows:

{0, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, .., 32768..65535}


Note - When EnabledState is set to 5 (Not Applicable), then this property has no meaning.


Set to “Not Applicable” if there has not been any invocation of RequestStateChange() method.

Set to the correct value of the incoming argument of RequestStateChange().

RequestStateChange()
uint32
Method for client to request state change.

The following state change operations are as follows:

{2 , 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, .., 32768..65535"}

Definitions for these values are as follows:

{Enabled, Disabled, Shut Down, Offline,Test, Defer, Quiesce, eboot, Reset, DMTF Reserved, Vendor Reserved}

For ComputerSystem instance representing the controller, will support 11 (Reset).

For ComputerSystem instance representing the controllee, will support 2 (Enabled), 3 (Disabled), 4 (Shut Down).

This operation is supported only if the user has Admin role.
