Figure 2 – Location Full Containment Implemented
Figure 3 shows the same system but with an implementation that does not build out the physical side of
containment hierarchy. In this case, the provider has associated the instance of HP_Fan with an
HP_Location instance that fully describes the containment of the fan using the LocationInformation and
LocationInformationDesc property arrays. From this info, the client can determine and provide the same
location string as defined for the previous instance:
“Fan 3 is plugged into Slot 1 which is contained in Chassis 3 which is plugged into Slot 2 which is
contained in Chassis 2 which is contained in the Main System chassis.”
This example is for illustrative purposes to show this mechanism could be used to describe complex
containment. It is recommended that systems with complex containment relationships such as those
shown in Figure 2 build out the physical side of the model.
