Class CIM_LimitedAccessPort
extends CIM_MediaTransferDevice

LimitedAccessPorts represent hardware that transports Physical Media into or out of a System, such as a StorageLibrary. They are identified as 'limited' since these Ports do not provide access to ALL the PhysicalMedia or StorageMediaLocations in a Library, but only to a subset.

DescriptionstringAn enumeration expressing whether the Port is used for import into the Library/System which scopes and names it (value=1), export from the Library/System (value=2), or both (value=3).
ValueMapstring0, 1, 2, 3
ValuesstringUnknown, Import, Export, Both Import and Export
ExportCountuint64
Counterbooleantrue
DescriptionstringThe number of times that the LimitedAccessPort was used to move a PhysicalMedia out of the System/StorageLibrary.
Extendedboolean
DescriptionstringWhen a Port is 'Extended' or 'open' (value=TRUE), its Storage MediaLocations are accessible to a human operator. If not extended (value=FALSE), the Locations are accessible to a PickerElement.
ExtendTimeoutuint32
DescriptionstringWhen a LimitedAccessPort is 'Extended', all related media- transfer componentry may be stopped. The ExtendTimeout property provides a mechanism to event on a Port left open for a period of time (in seconds) exceeding the property's value.
PUnitstringsecond
UnitsstringSeconds
ImportCountuint64
Counterbooleantrue
DescriptionstringThe number of times that the LimitedAccessPort was used to move a PhysicalMedia into the System/StorageLibrary.
LastExtendeddatetime
DescriptionstringDate and time that the Port was last extended.
Lockedboolean
DescriptionstringBoolean indicating that the Port is 'locked' (TRUE) or 'unlocked' (FALSE). When the Port is locked, access its Media Locations is prevented without the use of a physical key, front panel activity or the issuance of a software unlock command.
