__CIMOMIdentification

[This is preliminary documentation and subject to change.]

The __CIMOMIdentification system class describes the particular installation of WBEM and the CIM Object Manager. This is a singleton class; there is only one instance. Users query for the instance to obtain information about the WBEM installation.

[singleton]
class __CIMOMIdentification : __SystemClass
{
    string SetupDate;
    string SetupTime;
    string VersionCurrentlyRunning;
    string VersionUsedToCreateDB;
};
 

Properties

SetupDate
A string indicating the date of installation. This has the form:

mm/dd/yy GMT

Currently, this is always in GMT.

Note:  This will be changed to DMTF format in a future release.

SetupTime
A string indicating the time the setup occurred on the SetupDate. The format is:

HH:MM:SS xx GMT

where xx is AM or PM. The time is always in GMT.

Note:  This will be changed to DMTF format in a future release.

VersionCurrentlyRunning
Indicates the version of the actual Cimom.exe image currently executing. This is of the form:

"1.00.184.0000"

where the first digit is the major version, the next two digits are minor versions, and the next three digits are the build number. The remaining digits are not used.

where the first digit is the major version, the next two digits are minor versions, and the next three digits are the build number. The remaining digits are not used.
