Proles
Dell Command | Monitor running on Microsoft Windows operating system uses industry standard proles to represent the
management data provided. These proles are implemented either as dened or in some cases have Dell-specic extensions.
The following is a list of proles that are implemented for Dell Command | Monitor for Windows:
Non-extended proles:
•Base Metrics — The Base Metrics Prole is a component prole that denes the minimum object model needed to provide
dynamic metrics associated to existing managed element s and related associations.
•Battery — The Battery Prole extends the management capabilities of referencing proles by adding the capability to represent
batteries for manageability. The battery as a logical device is modeled as referencing the battery physical package for physical
asset information, the sensor for sensor-reading information, and the prole registration for the schema implementation version
information.
•BIOS Management — The BIOS Management Prole extends the management capabilities of referencing proles by adding the
capability to represent and congure BIOS settings, such as a Network Controller or IDE Controller. The individual BIOS settings’
relationship with a respective device is also described.
•Boot Control — The Boot Control Prole describes the classes, associations, properties, and methods used to manage the boot
control congurations of a physical or virtual computer system.
•CPU — The CPU Prole extends the management capability of referencing proles by adding the capability to represent CPUs
or processors in a managed system . CPU cache memory and associations with CPU physical aspects, as well as prole
implementation version information, are modeled in this prole.
•Fan — The Fan Prole extends the management capabilities of referencing proles by adding the capability to represent fans for
manageability and describe fans in a redundant conguration. The fan as a logical device is modeled as referencing the fan
physical package for physical asset information, a sensor for sensor reading information.
•Indications — The Indications Proledenes the CIM elements that are used to subscribe for indications of unsolicited events, to
advertise the possible indications, and to represent indications used to report events in a managed system.
•IP Interface — The IP Interface Prole extends the management capability of referencing proles by adding the capability to
represent an IP interface of a managed system.
•OS Status — The OS Status Prole extends the management capabilities of referencing proles by adding the capability to
perform basic management of operating systems installed on a system.
•PCI Device — The PCI Device Prole extends the management capabilities of referencing proles by adding the capability to
represent PCI devices for manageability, including PCI, PCI-X, PCI Express, bridge and switch devices.
•Physical Asset — The Physical Asset Prole extends the management capability of the referencing proles by adding the
capability to describe the physical aspects of logical elements that the implementation is instantiating.
•Power State Management — The Power State Management Prole describes the classes, associations, properties, and methods
used to manage the power of a computer system.
•Prole Registration — The Prole Registration extends the management capability of the referencing proles by adding the
capability to describe the registration and versioning of CIM proles that are implemented by CIM based system and component
management instrumentations.
•RecordLog — The Record Log Prole is an autonomous prole that provides the management capabilities to represent logs of a
managed system element.
•Sensors — The Sensors Prole extends the management capabilities of referencing proles by adding the capability to represent
sensors.
•Software Inventory — The Software Inventory Prole describes the CIM schema elements required to provide an inventory of
installed BIOS, rmware, drivers, and related software in a managed system.
•Device Tray — The Device Tray Prole is a component prole for modeling a device tray of a modular system.
•Software Update — The Software Update Prole describes the classes, associations, properties, and methods used to support
the installation and update of BIOS, rmware, drivers and related software on a managed element within a managed system.

AlertType
The identifying information of the entity (that is, the instance) for which this Indication is
generated. The property contains the path of an instance, encoded as a string parameter —
if the instance is modeled in the CIM Schema. If it is not a CIM instance, the property
contains some identifying string that names the entity for which the Alert is generated. The
path or identifying string is formatted per the AlertingElementFormat property.
Primary classication of the Indication.
Possible values are:
•1 = Other — The Indication's OtherAlertType property conveys its classication. Use of
Other in an enumeration is a standard CIM convention. It means that the current
Indication does not t into the categories described by this enumeration.
•2 = Communications Alert — An Indication of this type is principally associated with the
procedures and/or processes required to convey information from one point to another.
•3 = Quality of Service Alert — An Indication of this type is principally associated with a
degradation or errors in the performance or function of an entity.
•4 = Processing Error — An Indication of this type is principally associated with a
software or processing fault.
•5 = Device Alert — An Indication of this type is principally associated with an equipment
or hardware fault.
•6 = Environmental Alert — An Indication of this type is principally associated with a
condition relating to an enclosure in which the hardware resides, or other environmental
considerations.
•7 = Model Change — The Indication addresses changes in the Information Model. For
example, it may embed a Lifecycle Indication to convey the specic model change being
alerted.
•8 = Security Alert — An Indication of this type is associated with security violations,
detection of viruses, and similar issues.

EventID
IndicationI
dentier
An instrumentation or provider-specic value that describes the underlying real-world event
represented by the Indication. Two Indications with the same, non NULL EventID value are
considered, by the creating entity, to represent the same event. The comparison of two
EventID values is only dened for Alert Indications with identical, non NULL values of
SystemCreateClassName, SystemName, and ProviderName.
An identier for the Indication. This property is similar to a key value in that it can be used for
identication, when correlating Indications (see the CorrelatedIndications array). Its value
SHOULD be unique as long as correlations are reported, but MAY be reused or left NULL if
no future Indications will reference it in their CorrelatedIndications array. To ensure
uniqueness, the value of IndicationIdentier 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 dening the IndicationIdentier or that is a recognized ID that is 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 must not contain a colon (:). When using this algorithm, the rst colon to appear
in IndicationIdentier must appear between <OrgID>and <LocalID> is chosen by the business
entity and should not be re-used to identify dierent underlying (real-world) elements. If the
preferred algorithm is not used, the dening entity should assure that the resulting

DCIM_BaseMetricDenition
PropertyDescription
Caption
The Caption property is a short textual description (one- line string) of the
object.
Description
ElementName
Accuracy
AccuracyUnits
BreakdownDimensions
The Description property provides a textual description of the object.
A user-friendly name for the object. This property allows each instance to
dene a user-friendly name in addition to its key properties, identity data,
and description information.
NOTE: The Name property of ManagedSystemElement is also
dened 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.
Indicates the accuracy of the values reported for this metric.
The accuracy is expressed as the value of theAccuracy property in the
units specied by the AccuracyUnits property.
Denes one or more strings that can be used to rene (break down)
queries against the BaseMetricValues along a certain dimension. An
example is a transaction name, allowing the break down of the total value
for all transactions into a set of values, one for each transaction name.
Other examples might be application system or user group name. The
strings are free format and should be meaningful to the end users of the
metric data. The strings indicate which break down dimensions are
supported for this metric denition, by the underlying instrumentation.
Calculable
ChangeType
An enumerated value that describes the characteristics of the metric, for
purposes of performing calculations.
Possible values are:
•1 = Non-calculable
•2 = Summable
•3 = Non-summable
ChangeType indicates how the metric value changes, in the form of typical
combinations of ner grain attributes such as direction change, minimum
and maximum values, and wrapping semantics.

PropertyDescription
CanBeFRUed
CreationClassName
ElementName
Boolean that indicates whether this PhysicalElement can be
FRUed (TRUE) or not (FALSE).
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 identied.
A user-friendly name for the object. This property allows each
instance to dene a user-friendly name in addition to its key
properties, identity data, and description information.
NOTE: The Name property of ManagedSystemElement
is also dened 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 userfriendly 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.
HostingBoard
Manufacturer
Model
PackageType
Boolean indicating that this Card is a Motherboard or, more
generically, a baseboard in a Chassis.
The name of the organization responsible for producing the
PhysicalElement. This organization may be the entity from
whom the Element is purchased, but it is not necessarily true.
The latter information is contained in the Vendor property of
CIM_Product.
The name by which the PhysicalElement is known.
Enumeration dening the type of the PhysicalPackage.
Possible values are:
•0 = Unknown — Indicates that the package type is not
known.
•1 = Other — The package type does not correspond to an
existing enumerated value. The value is specied using the
OtherPackageType property.
•2 = Rack
•3 = Chassis/Frame
•4 = Cross Connect/Backplane

PropertyDescription
•8 = Sensor
•9 = Module/Card
•10 = Port/Connector
•11 = Battery
•12 = Processor
•13 = Memory
•14 = Power Source/Generator
•15 = Storage Media Package (e.g., Disk or Tape Drive)
•16 = Blade
•17 = Blade Expansion
NOTE: This enumeration expands on the list in the Entity
MIB (the attribute, entPhysicalClass). The numeric
values are consistent with CIM's enum numbering
guidelines, but are slightly dierent than the MIB's
values.
The values Rack through Port/Connector are dened per the
Entity-MIB (where the semantics of rack are equivalent to the
MIB's stack value). The other values (for battery, processor,
memory, power source/generator and storage media package)
are self-explanatory. A value of Blade should be used when the
PhysicalPackage contains the operational hardware aspects of a
ComputerSystem, without the supporting mechanicals such as
power and cooling. For example, a Blade Server includes
processor(s) and memory, and relies on the containing chassis to
supply power and cooling. In many respects, a Blade can be
considered a
inventory systems and diers in terms of service philosophy. For
example, a Blade is intended to be hot-plugged into a hosting
enclosure without requiring additional cabling, and does not
require a cover to be removed from the enclosure for installation.
Similarly, a Blade Expansion has characteristics of a Blade and a
Module/Card. However, it is distinct from both due to inventory
tracking and service philosophy, and because of its hardware
dependence on a Blade. A Blade Expansion must be attached to
a Blade prior to inserting the resultant assembly into an
enclosure.
Module/Card. However, it is tracked dierently by
PartNumber
SKU
Tag
The part number assigned by the organization that is responsible
for producing or manufacturing the PhysicalElement.
The stock-keeping unit number for this PhysicalElement.
An arbitrary string that uniquely identies the Physical Element
and serves as the key of the Element. The Tag property can
contain information such as asset tag or serial number data. The
key for PhysicalElement is placed very high in the object
hierarchy to independently identify the hardware or entity,
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 be temporarily unused. The object still continues to exist and
can even be inserted into a dierent scoping container.
Therefore, the key for Physical Element is an arbitrary string and
is dened independently of any placement or location-oriented
hierarchy.

A string providing more information on the ChassisPackageType.
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 identied.
A user-friendly name for the object. This property allows each
instance to dene a user-friendly name in addition to its key
properties, identity data, and description information.
NOTE: The Name property of ManagedSystemElement
is also dened as a user-friendly name. But, it is often
sub-classed to be a Key. It is not reasonable that the
same property can convey both identity and a userfriendly 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.
Boolean indicating whether the Frame is protected with a lock.

PhysicalElement. This organization may be the entity from
whom the Element is purchased, but this is not necessarily true.
The latter information is contained in the Vendor property of
CIM_Product.

NOTE: This enumeration expands on the list in the Entity
MIB (the attribute, entPhysicalClass). The numeric
values are consistent with CIM's enum numbering
guidelines, but are slightly dierent than the MIB's
values.
The values Rack through Port/Connector are dened per the
Entity-MIB (where the semantics of rack are equivalent to the
MIB's stack value).
The other values (for battery, processor, memory, power
source/generator and storage media package) are selfexplanatory. A value of Blade should be used when the
PhysicalPackage contains the operational hardware aspects of a
ComputerSystem, without the supporting mechanicals such as
power and cooling. For example, a Blade Server includes
processor(s) and memory, and relies on the containing chassis to
supply power and cooling.
In many respects, a Blade can be considered a Module/Card.
However, it is tracked dierently by inventory systems and diers in terms of service philosophy. For example, a Blade is
intended to be hot-plugged into a hosting enclosure without
requiring additional cabling, and does not require a cover to be
removed from the enclosure for installation. Similarly, a Blade Expansion has characteristics of a Blade and a Module/Card.
However, it is distinct from both due to inventory tracking and
service philosophy, and because of its hardware dependence on
a Blade. A Blade Expansion must be attached to a Blade prior to
inserting the resultant assembly into an enclosure.

PropertyDescription
key for PhysicalElement is placed very high in the object
hierarchy in order to independently identify the hardware or
entity, 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 be temporarily unused. The object still continues to exist and
can even be inserted into a dierent scoping container.
Therefore, the key for Physical Element is an arbitrary string and
is dened independently of any placement or location-oriented
hierarchy.

ElementName
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 identied.
A user-friendly name for the object. This property allows each
instance to dene a user-friendly name in addition to its key
properties, identity data, and description information.
NOTE: The Name property of ManagedSystemElement
is also dened as a user-friendly name. But, it is often
sub classed to be a Key. It is not reasonable that the
same property can convey both identity and a userfriendly 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.
