DeviceCurrentlyAttached
Defines the name of the device currently attached to this bay .
DeviceSupported
Defines a string containing a list of devices supported in this bay separated by
commas.
Name
The Name property defines the label by which the object is known. When subclassed,
the Name property can be overridden to be a Key property.
Tag
An arbitrary string that uniquely identifies the physical element and serves as the
Element's key. The Tag property can contain information such as asset tag or serial
number data. The key for physical element is placed very high in the object hierarchy
in order to independently identify the hardware/entity, regardless of physical
placement in or on Cabinets, Adapters, etc. For example, a hot swappable or
removable component may be taken from its containing (scoping) Package and be
temporarily unused. The object still continues to exist - and may even be inserted into
a different scoping container. Therefore, the key for physical element is an arbitrary
string and is defined independently of any placement or location-oriented hierarchy.
