class CIM_PrioritySchedulingElement : CIM_SchedulingElement

Description:

This class is a subclass of the abstract class SchedulingElement. It indicates that a scheduler is taking packets from a set of inputs using the priority scheduling discipline. As is the case with all subclasses of SchedulingElement, the input associated with an instance of PrioritySchedulingElement is of one of two types: either a queue, or another scheduler. The Priority property represents the priority for an input, relative to the priorities of all the other inputs to which the scheduler (that aggregates this PrioritySchedulingElement) is associated. Inputs to which the scheduler is related via other scheduling disciplines do not figure in this prioritization. Because scheduling of this type is always work conserving, the inherited boolean property, WorkConserving, is restricted to TRUE in this class.

Feature Type Class Origin Qualifiers
InstanceID string CIM_ManagedElement
Key TRUE
Override InstanceID
Description Within the scope of the instantiating Namespace, InstanceID opaquely and uniquely identifies an instance of this class. In order to ensure uniqueness within the NameSpace, the value of InstanceID SHOULD be constructed using the following 'preferred' algorithm: <OrgID>:<LocalID> Where <OrgID> and <LocalID> are separated by a colon ':', and where <OrgID> MUST include a copyrighted, trademarked or otherwise unique name that is owned by the business entity creating/defining the InstanceID, or is a registered ID that is assigned to the business entity by a recognized global authority. (This is similar to the <Schema Name>_<Class Name> structure of Schema class names.) In addition, to ensure uniqueness <OrgID> MUST NOT contain a colon (':'). When using this algorithm, the first colon to appear in InstanceID MUST appear between <OrgID> and <LocalID>. <LocalID> is chosen by the business entity and SHOULD not be re-used to identify different underlying (real-world) elements. If the above 'preferred' algorithm is not used, the defining entity MUST assure that the resultant InstanceID is not re-used across any InstanceIDs produced by this or other providers for this instance's NameSpace. For DMTF defined instances, the 'preferred' algorithm MUST be used with the <OrgID> set to 'CIM'.
Caption string CIM_ManagedElement
Description The Caption property is a short textual description (one- line string) of the object.
MaxLen 64
Description string CIM_ManagedElement
Description The Description property provides a textual description of the object.
ElementName string CIM_ManagedElement
Description A user-friendly name for the object. This property allows each instance to define a user-friendly name in addition to its key properties, identity data, and description information. Note that the Name property of ManagedSystemElement is also defined as a user-friendly name. But, it is often subclassed to be a Key. It is not reasonable that the same property can convey both identity and a user-friendly name, without inconsistencies. Where Name exists and is not a Key (such as for instances of LogicalDevice), the same information can be present in both the Name and ElementName properties.
WorkConserving boolean CIM_SchedulingElement
Override WorkConserving
Write TRUE
Description A boolean property indicating whether the PacketSchedulingService tied to this instance (by the ElementInSchedulingService aggregation) is treating the queue/input tied to this instance, in a work-conserving manner. The queue/input is indicated by either the QueueToSchedule or SchedulingServiceToSchedule association. Note that this property is writeable, indicating that an administrator can change the behavior of the SchedulingElement - but only for those elements that can operate in a non-work conserving mode.
Priority uint16 CIM_PrioritySchedulingElement
Description A 16-bit unsigned integer indicating the priority level of this SchedulingElement's input, relative to the other inputs serviced by the SchedulingElement's aggregating PacketSchedulingService. A larger value represents a higher priority.
