Class CIM_BootSourceSetting
extends CIM_SettingData

A class derived from SettingData that provides the information necessary to describe a boot source. This may be optionally associated to a bootable logical device, such as a hard disk partition, or a network device. The information from this class instance is used by the boot manager, such as BIOS/EFI or OS Loader to initiate the boot process, when this instance appears in a BootConfigSetting collection.

BIOSBootString	string
BIOSBootString	string		Description	string	A string identifying the boot source which corresponds to the string used by the BIOS to uniquely name the boot source. For example, in systems which implement the BIOS Boot Specification, the string could correspond to the descString string for entries in the IPL Table or BCV Table.
BootString	string
BootString	string		Description	string	A string identifying the boot source. It is typically used by the instrumentation to pass to the boot manager as a selection string. This could be a string identifying the bootable device, such as "CDROM 1", or could be an implementation specific address of a bootable partition, such as the following. "fd(64)unix root=hd(40) swap=hd(41)", or "multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional"".
FailThroughSupported	uint16
			Description	string	An enumeration indicating the behavior when the attempt to boot using the boot source fails (no media, timeout). The current values in the enumeration are: 0 = Unknown 1 = Is Supported 2 = Is Not Supported. A value of 1 (Is Supported) indicates that next boot source the boot order is used. A value of 2 (Is Not Supported) indicates that the boot order is terminated and no other boot sources associated to the same CIM_BootConfigSetting are used). The default is 1 (Is Supported)
			ValueMap	string	0, 1, 2
			Values	string	Unknown, Is Supported, Not Supported
StructuredBootString	string
StructuredBootString	string		Description	string	A string identifying the boot source using the format "<OrgID>:<identifier>:<index>", in which neither <OrgID>, <identifier> or <index> contains a colon (":"). The value of <OrgID> is a copyrighted, trademarked or otherwise unique name that is owned by the entity defining the <identifier>, or is a registered ID that is assigned to the entity by a recognized global authority. For DMTF defined identifiers, the <OrgID> is set to 'CIM'. The <identifiers> are "Floppy", "Hard-Disk", "CD/DVD", "Network", "PCMCIA", "USB". The value of <index> shall be a non-zero integer.
