Name | Data Type | Value |
IsInUse | boolean | |
Deprecated | string | CIM_Service.Started |
Description | string | This property is being deprecated. The boolean Started property inherited from CIM_Service should be used instead.
If this test is currently being performed, the InUse property is set to TRUE. To determine which ManagedSystem Element is being tested, query the DiagnosticResult objects associated with this test (query DiagnosticResultForTest), and for which the TestState equals 4 ("In Progress"). The DiagnosticResult object is associated with the System Element under test, using DiagnosticResultForMSE. |
OtherCharacteristicDescription | string | |
Deprecated | string | CIM_DiagnosticTest.OtherCharacteristicsDescriptions |
Description | string | Provides additional information for the Characteristic when its value is set to 1 ("Other"). |
ModelCorrespondence | string | CIM_DiagnosticTest.Characteristics |
Characteristics | uint16[] | |
Description | string | The descriptions for each Characteristic are below:
* "Is Exclusive" (value=2) is specified for the test module only if the diagnostic cannot run more than one test at a time, regardless of how many SystemElements are supported. Typically, this occurs when hardware or software constraints prevent the test from running as multiple, concurrent instances. If the diagnostic can be run against multiple SystemElements, but only once per Element, then set the IsExclusiveForMSE boolean property on the appropriate instances of DiagnosticTestForMSE.
* If "Is Interactive" (value=3) is set, then the diagnostic displays a message either before, during or after testing.
* Set "Is Destructive" (value=4) if the diagnostic will destroy data, or reconfigure the Element that is being tested.
* "Is Risky" (value=5) indicates that data loss may occur if the test is interrupted. Some tests make copies of data, perform the test, and restore the data returning the tested entity to its previous configuration. If the test is interrupted, then loss of data or reconfiguration of the tested ManagedSystemElement may occur.
* If "Is Package" (value=6) is set, this test is actually a set of lower level diagnostics, that are packaged together by the test. This packaging is implemented by the diagnostic test, not aggregated by CIM. Information and results associated with the individual tests in the package may be requested by using the "Subtests" value in the DiagnosticSetting.LogOptions array.
(value=7) was "Supports PercentOfTestCoverage" in Version 2.6. Value = 7 is being deprecated. Instead, it should be described in DiagnosticServiceCapabilities.
"Is Synchronous" (value=8) indicates that this diagnostic service will complete before the RunDiagnostic method returns to the caller. A Job is still created that can be accessed by the client for accounting purposes, but the ability to track progress and status of the Job are lost. Additionally, in certain environments, the client may be "blocked" from further action until the service completes.
"Media Required" (value=9) indicates that this diagnostic service requires that media be inserted into the device in order to perform the service. "Additional Hardware Required" (value=10) indicates that this diagnostic service requires that some additional hardware is installed (e.g., wrap plug) in order to perform the service. |

Description | string | OtherTestTypesDescriptions is an array that contains an element with additional information for each TestTypes element with a value of 1 ("Other"). |

ResourcesUsed | uint16[] | |
Deprecated | string | CIM_ServiceAffectsElement |
Description | string | This property is being deprecated and replaced with a more general method for indicating Managed Elements that are affected by this Test. The DiagnosticService parent has a ServiceAffectsElement association to a Managed Element for this purpose.
The "Expensive" qualifier can be applied to this class and its RunTest method. If so, the ResourcesUsed property describes the resources that are capitalized, based on a default setup for the test. Multiple resources can be specified since the property is an array. |

TestTypes | uint16[] | |
ArrayType | string | Indexed |
Description | string | The descriptions for each test type are below:
* If "Functional" (value=2) is set, this tests one, more or all the functionality of the element.
* If "Stress" (value=3) is set, this test is a stress test or exerciser for the element.
* If "Health Check" (value=4) is set, this test validates the current health of the element.
* If "Access Test" (value=5) is set, this test verifies the element is accessible to the system and user. This would include access through the OS as a user would access the element.
* If "Media Verify" (value=6) is set, this test verifies the media for the element. This does not validate that specific data is correctly written on the media or even if data can be written to the media, but verifies that the media itself has no faults. |
