The system boards on Windows devices.
Column | Description |
---|---|
DeviceGuid | The device that the system board belongs to. |
Manufacturer | The name of the organization responsible for producing the physical element. This may be the entity from whom the element is purchased, but this is not necessarily true. The latter information is contained in the Vendor property of CIM_Product. |
Model | The name by which the physical element is generally known. |
Name | The label by which the object is known. |
PartNumber | The part number assigned by the organization responsible for producing or manufacturing the physical element. |
PoweredOn | Indicates if the physical element is powered on (TRUE), or is currently off (FALSE). |
Product | The base board part number defined by the manufacturer. |
Removable | Indicates if a physical package is removable. A physical package is removable if it is designed to be taken in and out of the physical container in which it is normally found, without impairing the function of the overall packaging. A package can still be removable if power must be 'off' in order to perform the removal. If power can be 'on' and the package removed, then the element is removable and can be hot swapped. For example, an extra battery in a laptop is removable, as is a disk drive package inserted using SCA connectors. However, the latter can be hot swapped. A laptop's display is not removable, nor is a non-redundant power supply. Removing these components would impact the function of the overall packaging or is impossible due to the tight integration of the package. |
Replaceable | Indicates if a physical package is replaceable. A physical package is replaceable if it is possible to replace (FRU or upgrade) the element with a physically different one. For example, some computer systems allow the main processor chip to be upgraded to one of a higher clock rating. In this case, the processor is said to be replaceable. Another example is a power supply package mounted on sliding rails. All removable packages are inherently replaceable. |
SerialNumber | A manufacturer-allocated number used to identify the PhysicalElement. |
Status | The current status of the object. Various operational and Non-operational statuses can be defined. Operational statuses include: "OK", "Degraded", and "Pred Fail" (an element, such as a SMART-enabled hard disk drive, may be functioning properly but predicting a failure in the near future). Non-operational statuses include: "Error", "Starting", "Stopping", and "Service". The latter, "Service", could apply during mirror-resilvering of a disk, reload of a user permissions list, or other administrative work. Not all such work is online, yet the managed element is neither "OK" nor in one of the other states. |
Version | Indicates the version of the physical element. |
