association CIM_AssociatedProtocolController : CIM_ProtocolControllerForDevice


Description:

This association is used to define a hierarchy relationship between ProtocolControllers. This subclass is provided so that an enumeration of related ProtocolControllers can be performed without retrieving any connected StorageVolumes, MediaAccessDevices or LogicalPorts.

Definition:

Feature Type Class Origin Qualifiers
Antecedent CIM_ProtocolController CIM_Dependency
Override Antecedent
Description The 'upstream', Antecedent ProtocolController.
Key TRUE
Dependent CIM_ProtocolController CIM_Dependency
Override Dependent
Description The 'downstream' Dependent ProtocolController.
Key TRUE
DeviceNumber string CIM_ProtocolControllerForDevice
Description Address of the associated Device in the context of the Antecedent Controller.
AccessPriority uint16 CIM_ProtocolControllerForDevice
Description This property describes the priority given to accesses of the device through this Controller. The highest priority path will have the lowest value for this parameter.
AccessState uint16 CIM_ProtocolControllerForDevice
Description The AccessState property describes the accessibility of the LogicalDevice through the ProtocolController. Unknown (0) indicates the instrumentation does not know whether access is or is not functioning. Active (2) indicates normal access. Inactive (3) indicates the instrumentation knows this path is not active, and one of the other values (below) does not apply. Replication in Progress (4) indicates that the path is temporarily inactive due to a replication activity. Mapping Inconsistency (5) indicates the instrumentation has detected that this path is inactive due to an inconsistency in the DeviceNumber/DeviceAccess configuration.
ValueMap 0, 2, 3, 4, 5
Values "Unknown" [0]
