Introduction

This reference guide documents the Dell™ OpenManage™ Server Administrator Common Information Model (CIM) provider contained in the Management Object File (MOF) dccim32.mof.
CIM provides a conceptual model for describing manageable objects in a systems management environment. CIM is a modeling tool rather than a programming language. CIM provides the structure for organizing objects into a model of a managed environment. For modeling a managed environment, CIM makes available a set of abstract and concrete classes of objects. These classes model the basic characteristics of systems, networks, and applications, as well as groupings of management-related data.
For more information about CIM, see the Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF) website at www.dmtf.org and the Microsoft www.microsoft.com.

Server Administrator

Server Administrator 1.0 or later provides a suite of systems management information for keeping track of your networked systems. In addition to providing systems management agents that are independent of the management console, Server Administrator supports these systems management standards: CIM and Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).
In addition to supporting systems management industry standards, Server Administrator provides additional systems management information about the specific components of your Dell™ system.

Documenting CIM Classes and Their Properties

The Dell CIM provider extends support to Dell-specific software and hardware components. The Dell MOF defines the classes for the Dell CIM provider. All of the supported classes and properties in the MOF are documented in this guide.
Introduction 9
The following subsections define some of the basic building blocks of CIM classes that are used in describing the dccim32 provider name. These subsections also explain how the elements used in describing these classes are organized. This section does not document the entire CIM schema, but only those classes and properties supported by the dccim32 provider. The list of properties for each supported class varies greatly.

Base Classes

The classes listed in the Server Administrator CIM provider class hierarchy do not have a parent property. These base classes do not derive from another class. The base classes are:
CIM_ManagedSystemElement
CIM_Dependency
DELL_Esm Log
DELL_PostLog
DELL_CMApplication
DELL_CMDevice
DELL_CMDeviceApplications
DELL_CMInventory
DELL_CMOS
DELL_CMProductInfo
The CIM_ManagedSystemElement class is the base class for the system element hierarchy from which all other CIM classes are derived. As a result, CIM_ManagedSystemElement has no parent. Examples of managed system elements include software components such as files, devices such as hard drives and controllers, and physical subcomponents of devices such as chip sets and cards. For the CIM_ManagedSystemElement properties, see Caption, CreationClassName, Description, Name, and Status in Table 1-2
The Dell-defined classes are not defined in the official schema by the DMTF, the industry group that defines the standards for CIM, and hence do not have parent classes. CIM_Dependency does not have a parent class because it is a relationship or association between two managed system elements.
10 Introduction

Parent Classes

Most classes in the dccim32 provider document both a Class Name and a Parent Class property. The parent class is the class from which any given class
inherits its core properties. For example, the CIM_Controller class has the CIM_LogicalDevice class as its parent, and has various types of controllers (CIM_ParallelController, CIM_SerialController) as its children.

Classes That Describe Relationships

Classes that derive from CIM_Dependency have CIM_Dependency as their parent class, but they are documented in terms of antecedent and dependent elements in a relationship rather than in terms of common properties. Consider the following relationship between two CIM_ManagedSystemElements:
Antecedent CIM_PackageCurrentSensor
Dependent CIM_PhysicalPackage
The CIM_PackageCurrentSensor monitors an entire physical package, such as all the components contained in a given system chassis. The CIM_PhysicalPackage is dependent on the CIM_PackageCurrentSensor for this monitoring function.

Dell-Defined Classes

Server Administrator has extended some CIM classes and has created new classes to assist in managing systems and their components. In the diagrams that appear in the documentation for each class, those classes created and populated by Dell are designated by the gold (lighter gray) triangle icon.
Introduction 11

Typographical Conventions

The following example shows how most of the classes in the Dell CIM provider are documented. Table 1-1 shows a partial class description for the DELL_DMA class. (For a full class description, see Table 3-41)

Common Properties of Classes

Many classes have properties such as Caption, Description, and CreationClassName. Table 1-2 defines properties that have the same
meaning in every class that has this property and are defined more than once in this guide.
Table 1-2. Common Properties of Classes
Property Description Data Type
Caption Describes the object using a short textual
description (one-line 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, this property allows all instances of this class and its subclasses to be uniquely identified.
CSCreationClassName Indicates the computer system’s creation
class name.
CSName Indicates the computer system’s name. string
CurrentReading Indicates the actual current value indicated
by the sensor in amperes.
Description Provides a textual description of the object. string
LowerThresholdNonCritical If current reading is between lower
threshold noncritical and upper threshold noncritical, the current state is normal. See Figure 3-2.
LowerThresholdCritical If the current reading is between upper
threshold critical and upper threshold fatal, the current state is critical. See Figure 3-2.
IsLinear Indicates that the sensor is linear over its
dynamic range.

Property Description Data Type
Manufacturer Provides the name of the organization
responsible for producing the CIM_PhysicalElement or CIM_SoftwareElement. This may be the entity from whom the element is purchased, but not necessarily. Purchase information is contained in the Vendor property of CIM_Product.
Name Defines the label by which the object is
known. When subclassed, the Name property can be overridden to be a Key property.
Status Provides a string indicating how well the
component is functioning—comparable to "health." Status values for operational and nonoperational conditions include:
Operational Status Values:
OK indicates that the object is functioning normally.
Degraded means that the item is functioning, but not optimally.
Stressed indicates that the element is functioning, but needs attention. Examples of Stressed states are overloaded, overheated, and so on.

14 Introduction
Table 1-2. Common Properties of Classes (continued)
Property Description Data Type
UnitModifier Provides the unit multiplier for the values
returned by this sensor. All the values returned by this sensor are represented in units of 10 raised to the power of the unit modifier. If the unit modifier is –6, then the units of the values returned are microvolts. The units apply to all numeric properties of the sensor, unless explicitly overridden by the units’ qualifier.
UpperThresholdCritical If the current reading is between upper
threshold critical and upper threshold fatal, the current status is critical. See Figure 3-2.
UpperThresholdNonCriticalIf the current reading is between lower
threshold noncritical and lower threshold critical, the current status is noncritical. See Figure 3-2.

CIM_PhysicalElement

CIM_PhysicalElement is a CIM-defined class. The CIM_PhysicalElement class contains the subclasses shown in Figure 2-1.

Subclasses of the CIM_PhysicalElement class listed in Table 2-1 define any component of a system that has a distinct physical identity. Physical elements are tangible managed system elements (usually actual hardware items) that have a physical manifestation of some sort. By contrast, processes, files, and logical devices are not classified as physical elements. A managed system element is not necessarily a discrete component. A single card (which is a type of physical element) can host more than one logical device. One card, for example, could implement both a modem and a local area network (LAN) adapter. In this case, the card would be represented by a single physical element associated with multiple logical devices.

string the element’s key. The Ta g property can contain information such as asset tag or serial number data. The key for physical element is placed very high in the object hierarchy in order to identify the hardware/entity independently, regardless of physical placement in or on cabinets, adapters, and so on. For example, a hot­swappable or removable component can be taken from its containing (scoping) package and temporarily unused. The object still continues to exist and may even be inserted into a different scoping container. Therefore, the key for physical element is an arbitrary string that is defined independently of any placement or location-oriented hierarchy.

CIM_PhysicalPackage

CIM_PhysicalPackage
The CIM_PhysicalPackage class listed in Table 2-2 represents physical elements that contain or host other components. Examples are a rack enclosure or an adapter card with multiple functions.

Removable A CIM_PhysicalPackage is removable if it is designed to
be taken in and out of the physical container in which it is normally found without impairing the function of the overall package.
Replaceable A CIM_PhysicalPackage is replaceable if it is possible to
substitute a physically different element for the original element, as in a field replaceable unit (FRU). For example, some computer systems allow the microprocessor to be upgraded to one of a higher clock rating. In this case, the microprocessor is said to be replaceable.

uint16 memory, including check or error correction bits. If there are no error correction bits, the value in this property should match that specified for the DataWidth property.
DataWidth Indicates the data width, in bits, of the physical
uint16 memory. A data width of 0 and a total width of 8 would indicate that the memory is solely used to provide error correction bits.
Speed Indicates the speed of the physical memory, in
uint32 nanoseconds.
SpeedAsString Indicates the accurate speed of the physical
string memory, in string format (with units).
Capacity Indicates the total capacity of this physical
uint64 memory, in bytes.
BankLabel A string identifying the physically labeled bank
string where the memory is located, for example, "Bank 0" or "Bank A."

Class Name: CIM_PhysicalMemory
Parent Class: CIM_Chip
Property Description Data Type
PositionInRow Specifies the position of the physical memory in a
“row.” For example, if it takes two 8-bit memory devices to form a 16-bit row, then a value of 2 means that this memory is the second device. 0 is an invalid value for this property.
InterleavePosition Indicates the position of this physical memory in
an interleave. 0 indicates noninterleaved. 1 indicates the first position, 2 the second position and so on. For example, in a 2:1 interleave, a value of 1 indicates that the memory is in the “even” position.

CIM_PhysicalConnector
The CIM_PhysicalConnector class explained in Table 2-9 includes physical elements such as plugs, jacks, or buses that connect physical elements. Any object that can be used to connect and transmit signals or power between two or more physical elements is a member of this class. For example, slots and D-shell connectors are types of physical connectors. See Table 2-10 for a list of valid connector type values.

Property Description Data Type
ConnectorPinout A free-form string describing the pin
string configuration and signal usage of a physical connector.
ConnectorType An array of integers defining the type of
uint16 physical connector. An array is specified to allow the description of “combinations” of connector information. For example, one array entry could specify RS-232, another DB-25, and a third entry could define the connector as male. See Table 2-10 for the values of the ConnectorType property.
