class CIM_VirtualSystemSnapshotCapabilities : CIM_Capabilities

Description:

The CIM_VirtualSystemSnapshotCapabilities class defines the properties that describe the capabilities of a virtual system with respect to snapshots, like for example the set of snapshot operations that it enabled for a virtual system.

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
Required TRUE
Override ElementName
Description The user friendly name for this instance of Capabilities. In addition, the user friendly name can be used as a index property for a search of query. (Note: Name does not have to be unique within a namespace.)
SnapshotTypesEnabled uint16[] CIM_VirtualSystemSnapshotCapabilities
Description Enumeration of snapshot type identifiers each designating a snapshot type that is presently enabled for the virtual system that is referenced via the CIM_ElementCapabilities association.
ValueMap 2, 3, .., 32768..65535
Values "Full Snapshot" [2]
"Disk Snapshot" [3]
"DMTF Reserved" [..]
"Vendor Specific" [32768..65535]
ModelCorrespondence CIM_VirtualSystemSnapshotService.CreateSnapshot(SnapshotType), CIM_VirtualSystemSnapshotServiceCapabilities.SnapshotTypesSupported
GuestOSNotificationEnabled boolean CIM_VirtualSystemSnapshotCapabilities
Description Boolean flag indicating the capability of the snapshot service to notify the guest operation system that runs within the virtual system about the imminent snapshot operation.
