| Name | Data Type | Default Value | Qualifiers |
| Name | Data Type | Value |
| SupportsAutomaticStoragePoolAllocation | boolean | |
| Description | string | It indicates the system supports the following capability.
When a thinly provisioned storage element subject to storage tiering needs additional storage capacity and the storage pool that the storage element is allocated from is out of free capacity, the system allocates the additional storage capacity from another storage pool in the same tiering policy that is associated to the storage volume. |
| Experimental | boolean | true |
| SupportsTieringPolicies | boolean | false |
| Description | string | Indicates if instrumentation supports policies for storage tiering. |
| PolicyAppliesToElements | uint16[] | |
| Description | string | Enumeration indicating the elements that are associated with a tiering policy. For example, a tiering policy can dictate the space allocation from different tiers for all storage volumes belonging to a DeviceMaskingGroup. |
| ValueMap | string | 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, .., 0x8000.. |
| Values | string | StorageVolume, LogicalDisk, StorageExtent, StoragePool, DeviceMaskingGroup, DMTF Reserved, Vendor Specific |
| SupportedAsynchronousActions | uint16[] | |
| Description | string | Enumeration indicating what operations will be executed as asynchronous jobs. If an operation is included in both this and SupportedSynchronousActions properties then the underlying implementation is indicating that it may or may not create a job. |
| ModelCorrespondence | string | CIM_TierPolicyServiceCapabilities.SupportedSynchronousActions |
| Override | string | SupportedAsynchronousActions |
| ValueMap | string | 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, .., 0x8000.. |
| Values | string | CreateStorageTier, AddToStorageTier, RemoveFromStorageTier, CreateTierDomain, DeleteTierDomain, ModifyStorageTierDomainAssociation, GetStorageTierCandidateObjects, DeleteStorageTier, CreateStorageTierPolicyRule, DeleteStorageTierPolicyRule, ModifyStorageTierPolicyRule, DMTF Reserved, Vendor Specific |
| SupportedDataMovementRates | uint16[] | |
| Description | string | Specifies how fast data should be moved between storage tiers. |
| ModelCorrespondence | string | CIM_TierPolicyRule.DataMovementRate |
| ValueMap | string | 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, .., 0x8000.. |
| Values | string | Very High, High, Medium, Low, Very Low, Implementation Decides, DMTF Reserved, Vendor Specific |
| SupportedPolicyFeatures | uint16[] | |
| Description | string | Enumeration indicating the supported features of the storage tier policy service. "Policy shall account for 100 percent allocation", indicates if an element is associated with a tiering policy, the policy shall account for the element's entire space allocation from various tiers. |
| ValueMap | string | 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, .., 0x8000.. |
| Values | string | System creates policies, Client can create policies, Storage tier can belong to multiple policies, Policy shall account for total allocation, Supports global TierPolicyRule, Supports local TierPolicyRule, DMTF Reserved, Vendor Specific |
| SupportedProvisioningTypes | uint16[] | |
| Description | string | The policy rule applies to elements that have the indicated provisioning. |
| ValueMap | string | 2, 3, 4, 5, .., 0x8000.. |
| Values | string | ThinlyProvisioned, ThicklyProvisioned, CompressedThinlyProvisioned, CompressedThicklyProvisioned, DMTF Reserved, Vendor Specific |
| SupportedRemoteTieringCoordination | uint16[] | |
| Description | string | Indicates if the Automated Storage Tiering subsystem has the capability to coordinate with the remote site the tiering characteristics of the elements involved in remote replication. |
| Experimental | boolean | true |
| ValueMap | string | 2, 3, 4, 5, .., 0x8000.. |
| Values | string | ThinlyProvisioned Mirror, ThicklyProvisioned Mirror, ThinlyProvisioned Clone, ThicklyProvisioned Clone, DMTF Reserved, Vendor Specific |
| SupportedSynchronousActions | uint16[] | |
| Description | string | Enumeration indicating what operations will be executed synchronously -- without the creation of a job. If an operation is included in both this property and SupportedAsynchronousActions then the underlying implementation is indicating that it may or may not create a job. |
| ModelCorrespondence | string | CIM_TierPolicyServiceCapabilities.SupportedAsynchronousActions |
| Override | string | SupportedSynchronousActions |
| ValueMap | string | 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, .., 0x8000.. |
| Values | string | CreateStorageTier, AddToStorageTier, RemoveFromStorageTier, CreateTierDomain, DeleteTierDomain, ModifyStorageTierDomainAssociation, GetStorageTierCandidateObjects, DeleteStorageTier, CreateStorageTierPolicyRule, DeleteStorageTierPolicyRule, ModifyStorageTierPolicyRule, DMTF Reserved, Vendor Specific |
