Persistent Storage Profile 1 Scope The Persistent Storage Profile extends the management capabilities of referencing profiles by adding the capability to represent and manage the partitions on the Virtual flash media on Dell platforms. The information in this specification is intended to be sufficient to manage the Persistent Storage feature using the DMTF CIM Schema and Dell extensions to the CIM schema.

4.9 WBEM Web-Based Enterprise Management 5 Synopsis Profile Name: Persistent Storage Version: 1.0.0 Organization: Dell Inc. CIM Schema Version: 2.26 Experimental Central Class: DCIM_PersistentStorageService Scoping Class: CIM_ComputerSystem The Persistent Storage Profile extends the management capability of the referencing profiles by adding the capability to represent and manage the partitions on the virtual flash media of Dell platforms.
Figure 1 represents the class schema for the Persistent Storage Profile. For simplicity, the prefix CIM_ has been removed from the names of the classes. The vFlash media and its attributes are represented by the DCIM_VFlashView class. Each partition on the vFlash is represented by DCIM_OpaqueManagementData. The DCIM_PersistentStorageService class is used to configure the vFlash and its partitions. The Persistent Storage Profile information is represented with the instance of CIM_RegisteredProfile.
