Hi Glen,
CC to WIMS list - as yours is a good question.
The intended element grouping is show below
- based on System versus Admin control of each
of the elements.
[As I said during yesterday's WIMS telecon,
I'll be writing a mostly outline initial draft of
the PWG Power Management Model spec
in the next few weeks (before August F2F).]
For DMTF CIM MOF, PWG XML Schema, and
PWG Power Management MIB, the elements
should be grouped as follows:
Status - all READ-ONLY properties set by System
REQUIRED - Power Monitor Group
(simple state elements)
OPTIONAL - Power Log Group
(table of power-related events)
Capabilities - all READ-ONLY properties set by System
REQUIRED - Power Mode Group
(table of supported states/power usage levels)
REQUIRED - Power Transition Group
(table of supported state transitions/durations)
Settings - all READ-WRITE properties set by Admin
OPTIONAL - Power Policy Group
(table of local site policies for power transitions)
OPTIONAL - Power Request Group
(operation to transition to a new power state)
NOTE: PowerMode.IsAcceptingJobs (a capability)
is NOT settable by the Admin. Instead, each element
XxxService.IsAcceptingJobs is settable by the Admin.
Cheers,
- Ira
