Class CIM_Service
extends CIM_EnabledLogicalElement

A Service is a LogicalElement that represents the availability of functionality that can be managed. This functionality may be provided by a seperately modeled entity such as a LogicalDevice or a SoftwareFeature, or both. The modeled Service typically provides only functionality required for management of itself or the elements it affects.

Name	Data Type	Default Value	Qualifiers
Name	Data Type	Default Value	Name	Data Type	Value
CreationClassName	string
			Description	string	CreationClassName indicates the name of the class or the subclass that is 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.
			Key	boolean	true
			MaxLen	uint32	256
Name	string
			Description	string	The Name property uniquely identifies the Service and provides an indication of the functionality that is managed. This functionality is described in more detail in the Description property of the object.
			Key	boolean	true
			MaxLen	uint32	256
			Override	string	Name
PrimaryOwnerContact	string
			Description	string	A string that provides information on how the primary owner of the Service can be reached (for example, phone number, e-mail address, and so on).
			MappingStrings	string	MIF.DMTF\|General Information\|001.4
			MaxLen	uint32	256
			Write	boolean	true
PrimaryOwnerName	string
			Description	string	The name of the primary owner for the service, if one is defined. The primary owner is the initial support contact for the Service.
			MappingStrings	string	MIF.DMTF\|General Information\|001.3
			MaxLen	uint32	64
			Write	boolean	true
Started	boolean
Started	boolean		Description	string	Started is a Boolean that indicates whether the Service has been started (TRUE), or stopped (FALSE).
StartMode	string
			Deprecated	string	CIM_Service.EnabledDefault
			Description	string	Note: The use of this element is deprecated in lieu of the EnabledDefault property that is inherited from EnabledLogicalElement. The EnabledLogicalElement addresses the same semantics. The change to a uint16 data type was discussed when CIM V2.0 was defined. However, existing V1.0 implementations used the string property. To remain compatible with those implementations, StartMode was grandfathered into the schema. Use of the deprecated qualifier allows the maintenance of the existing property but also permits an improved, clarified definition using EnabledDefault. Deprecated description: StartMode is a string value that indicates whether the Service is automatically started by a System, an Operating System, and so on, or is started only upon request.
			MaxLen	uint32	10
			ValueMap	string	Automatic, Manual
SystemCreationClassName	string
			Description	string	The CreationClassName of the scoping System.
			Key	boolean	true
			MaxLen	uint32	256
			Propagated	string	CIM_System.CreationClassName
SystemName	string
			Description	string	The Name of the scoping System.
			Key	boolean	true

Class Methods

Local Class Methods

StartService (uint32)

Method Qualifiers (StartService)

Name	Data Type	Value
Description	string	The StartService method places the Service in the started state. Note that the function of this method overlaps with the RequestedState property. RequestedState was added to the model to maintain a record (such as a persisted value) of the last state request. Invoking the StartService method should set the RequestedState property appropriately. The method returns an integer value of 0 if the Service was successfully started, 1 if the request is not supported, and any other number to indicate an error. In a subclass, the set of possible return codes could be specified using a ValueMap qualifier on the method. The strings to which the ValueMap contents are translated can also be specified in the subclass as a Values array qualifier. Note: The semantics of this method overlap with the RequestStateChange method that is inherited from EnabledLogicalElement. This method is maintained because it has been widely implemented, and its simple "start" semantics are convenient to use.

StopService (uint32)

Method Qualifiers (StopService)

Name	Data Type	Value
Description	string	The StopService method places the Service in the stopped state. Note that the function of this method overlaps with the RequestedState property. RequestedState was added to the model to maintain a record (such as a persisted value) of the last state request. Invoking the StopService method should set the RequestedState property appropriately. The method returns an integer value of 0 if the Service was successfully stopped, 1 if the request is not supported, and any other number to indicate an error. In a subclass, the set of possible return codes could be specified using a ValueMap qualifier on the method. The strings to which the ValueMap contents are translated can also be specified in the subclass as a Values array qualifier. Note: The semantics of this method overlap with the RequestStateChange method that is inherited from EnabledLogicalElement. This method is maintained because it has been widely implemented, and its simple "stop" semantics are convenient to use.
