Property Description
• 1 = Correlated
• 2.. = DMTF Reserved
ValueRange
The ValueRange property indicates further semantics on the
interpretation of all non-null, non-key properties of the Component
SettingData. "Minimums", "Maximums", and "Increments", are only
evaluated against non-null, non-key, non-enumerated, non-
boolean, numeric properties of the SettingData instance. Each
property of that set is mathematically comparable to other
instances of that property.
Possible values are:
• 0 = Point - Indicates that this SettingData instance
provides a single set of values.
• 1 = Minimums - Indicates that this SettingData instance
provides minimum values for evaluated properties. When
used with PropertyPolicy = "Independent", only one such
setting per particular SettingData instance is specified for
any Capabilities. Unless restricted by a Maximums on the
same set of properties, all values that compare higher
than the specified values are also considered to be
supported by the associated capabilities instance.
• 2 = Maximums - Indicates that this SettingData instance
provides maximum values for evaluated properties. When
used with PropertyPolicy = "Independent", only one such
setting per particular SettingData instance is specified for
any Capabilities. Unless restricted by a Minimums on the
same set of properties, all values that compare lower than
the specified values are also considered to be supported
by the associated capabilities instance.
• 3 = Increments - Indicates that this SettingData instance
provides increment values for evaluated properties. For
the associated Capabilities, if an evaluated property
currently has no corresponding minimums or maximums,
then the property has no affect. Otherwise, for each
evaluated property: its value x is between the minimum
and maximum, inclusively, and has the property that both
the result of maximum minus x and the result of x minus
minimum are each an integer multiple of the increment. If
either minimum or maximum is not specified and the other
is, then the missing value is respectively assumed to be
the lowest or highest supported value for the property's
data-type. Additionally, if both a minimum and a maximum
are specified for an evaluated property, then the result of
maximum minus minimum is an integer multiple of the
increment.
• 4.. = DMTF Reserved
ValueRole
The ValueRole property indicates further semantics on the
interpretation of the non-null, non-key properties of the
Component SettingData.
Possible values are:
• 0 = Default - Indicates that property values of the
component SettingData instance will be used as default
values, when a new SettingData instance is created for
elements whose capabilities are defined by the
associated Capabilities instance. Across instances of
settingdata, for particular properties having the same
