Property Description
IdentifyingDescriptions 
An array of free-form strings providing explanations and details 
behind the entries in the OtherIdentifyingInfo array. Note that each 
entry of this array is related to the entry in OtherIdentifyingInfo 
that is located at the same index.
RequestedState
An integer enumeration that indicates the last requested or desired 
state for the element, irrespective of the mechanism through 
which it was requested. The actual state of the element is 
represented by EnabledState. This property is provided to compare 
the last requested and current enabled or disabled states. Note 
that when EnabledState is set to 5 (Not Applicable), then this 
property has no meaning. Refer to the EnabledState property 
description for explanations of the values in the RequestedState 
enumeration. 
Unknown (0) indicates the last requested state for 
the element is unknown.
NOTE: The value No Change (5) has been deprecated 
instead of indicating the last requested state is Unknown 
(0). If the last requested or desired state is unknown, 
RequestedState should have the value Unknown (0), but 
may have the value No Change (5).
There are two new values in RequestedState that build on the 
statuses of EnabledState. These are 
Reboot (10) and Reset (11).
Shut Down requests an orderly transition to the Disabled state, and 
may involve removing power, to completely erase any existing 
state. The Disabled state requests an immediate disabling of the 
element, such that it will not execute or accept any commands or 
processing requests. This property is set as the result of a method 
invocation (such as Start or StopService on CIM_Service), or can 
be overridden and defined as WRITEable in a subclass. The method 
approach is considered superior to a WRITEable property, because 
it allows an explicit invocation of the operation and the return of a 
result code. If knowledge of the last RequestedState is not 
supported for the EnabledLogicalElement, the property is NULL or 
has the value 12 
Not Applicable.
Possible values are:
• 0 = Unknown
• 2 = Enabled
• 3 = Disabled
• 4 = Shut Down
• 5 = No Change
• 6 = Offline — Indicates that the element has been requested to 
transition to the Enabled but Offline EnabledState.
• 7 = Test
• 8 = Deferred
• 9 = Quiesce
• 10 = Reboot — Refers to doing a Shut Down and then moving 
to an Enabled state.
• 11 = Reset — Indicates that the element is first Disabled and 
then Enabled.
• 12 = Not Applicable
• .. = DMTF Reserved
• 32768..65535 = Vendor Reserved
