Property Description
• 12 = Not Applicable
• .. = DMTF Reserved
• 32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
The actual state of the element is represented by EnabledState. This property is provided
to compare the last requested and current enabled or disabled states. Note that when
EnabledState is set to 5 (Not Applicable), then this property has no meaning. Refer to the
EnabledState property description for explanations of the values in the RequestedState
enumeration.
NOTE: The value No Change (5) has been deprecated instead of indicating the
last requested state is Unknown (0). If the last requested or desired state is
unknown, RequestedState should have the value Unknown (0), but may have
the value No Change (5).
There are two new values in RequestedState that build on the statuses of EnabledState.
These are Reboot (10) and Reset (11).
Shut Down requests an orderly transition to the Disabled state, and may involve removing
power, to completely erase any existing state. The Disabled state requests an immediate
disabling of the element, such that it will not execute or accept any commands or
processing requests.
This property is set as the result of a method invocation (such as Start or StopService on
CIM_Service), or can be overridden and defined as WRITEable in a subclass. The method
approach is considered superior to a WRITEable property, because it allows an explicit
invocation of the operation and the return of a result code.
If knowledge of the last RequestedState is not supported for the EnabledLogicalElement,
the property is NULL or has the value 12 (Not Applicable).
TransitioningToState
Indicates the target state to which the instance is transitioning.
Possible values are:
• 0 = Unknown
• 2 = Enabled
• 3 = Disabled
• 4 = Shut Down
• 5 = No Change — Indicates that no transition is in progress.
• 6 = Offline
• 7 = Test
• 8 = Defer
• 9 = Quiesce
• 10 = Reboot
• 11 = Reset
• 12 = Not Applicable — Indicates the implementation does not support representing
ongoing transitions.
