Figure 1 – Location Class Diagram
Figure 1 shows the class diagram for the Location Profile. Providers associate an instance of
HP_Location to any managed element that they want to report location information for using the
HP_ElementLocation association.
HP_Location provides a mechanism for providers to supply 2 separate but related bits of information
about the location of a managed element. The first is the ability to supply a well defined element tag that
is used to identify the location of the instance of the element inside its containment. This is supported by
the ElementLocationTag/ElementLocationTagDesc property pair. Secondly, HP_Location provides the
ability to fully describe the location path of the containment hierarchy of the managed element associated
with HP_Location. This is supported by the LocationInformation/LocationInfoDesc property pair.
