Class CIM_PolicyConditionStructure
extends CIM_PolicyComponent

PolicyConditions may be aggregated into rules and into compound conditions. PolicyConditionStructure is the abstract aggregation class for the structuring of policy conditions. The Conditions aggregated by a PolicyRule or CompoundPolicyCondition are grouped into two levels of lists: either an ORed set of ANDed sets of conditions (DNF, the default) or an ANDed set of ORed sets of conditions (CNF). Individual PolicyConditions in these lists may be negated. The property ConditionListType specifies which of these two grouping schemes applies to a particular PolicyRule or CompoundPolicyCondition instance. One or more PolicyTimePeriodConditions may be among the conditions associated with a PolicyRule or CompoundPolicyCondition via the PolicyConditionStructure subclass association. In this case, the time periods are simply additional Conditions to be evaluated along with any others that are specified.

NameData TypeValue
ConditionNegatedboolean
DescriptionstringIndication of whether the contained PolicyCondition is negated. TRUE indicates that the PolicyCondition IS negated, FALSE indicates that it IS NOT negated.
GroupNumberuint16
DescriptionstringUnsigned integer indicating the group to which the contained PolicyCondition belongs. This integer segments the Conditions into the ANDed sets (when the ConditionListType is "DNF") or, similarly, into the ORed sets (when the ConditionListType is "CNF").
