| Name | Data Type | Default Value | Qualifiers |
| Name | Data Type | Value |
| RelativePerformanceOrderDefault | uint16 | |
| Description | string | Indicates the default value of RelativePerformanceOrder for the storage tier -- the smaller the RelativePerformanceOrder, the more performant the storage tier. |
| ModelCorrespondence | string | CIM_StorageTierCapabilities.RelativePerformanceOrderMin, CIM_StorageTierCapabilities.RelativePerformanceOrderMax, CIM_StorageTier.RelativePerformanceOrder |
| RelativePerformanceOrderMax | uint16 | |
| Description | string | Indicates the maxmimum value for RelativePerformanceOrder that this storage tier can have.
The maximum value for RelativePerformanceOrder that this storage tier can have, which represents the lowest level of performance. |
| ModelCorrespondence | string | CIM_StorageTierCapabilities.RelativePerformanceOrderMin, CIM_StorageTierCapabilities.RelativePerformanceOrderDefault, CIM_StorageTier.RelativePerformanceOrder |
| RelativePerformanceOrderMin | uint16 | |
| Description | string | Indicates the minimum value for RelativePerformanceOrder that this storage tier can have.
The minimum value for RelativePerformanceOrder that this storage tier can have, which represents the highest level of performance. |
| ModelCorrespondence | string | CIM_StorageTierCapabilities.RelativePerformanceOrderMax, CIM_StorageTierCapabilities.RelativePerformanceOrderDefault, CIM_StorageTier.RelativePerformanceOrder |
| StorageTierCharacteristics | uint16[] | |
| Description | string | Indicates the storage tier charateristics. Performance generally relates to the underlying technology, for example, Solid State versus Fibre Channel drives. QoS refers to the Quality of Service, for example, RAID protected versus unprotected. |
| ValueMap | string | 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, .., 0x8000.. |
| Values | string | Unknown, Other, BasedOnPerformance Only, BasedOnQOS Only, BasedOnPerformance And BasedOnQOS, DMTF Reserved, Vendor Specific |
| SupportedStorageTierMethodologies | uint16[] | |
| Description | string | An array indicating the supported storage tier methodologies. StorageTierMethodologies are useful for use cases where client wants to place an element in a storage tier without specifying a specific storage tier, and let the implementation select an appropriate storage tier. None: This storage tier should not be considered. |
| ValueMap | string | 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, .., 0x8000.. |
| Values | string | None, Implementation Decides, Highest Performance, Lowest Performance, Highest Availability, Lowest Availability, DMTF Reserved, Vendor Specific |
