Version 1.1.0 5
CPU Profile
1 Scope
The DCIM CPU Profile describes the properties and interfaces for executing system management tasks
related to the management of processors within a system. The profile standardizes and aggregates the
description for the CPU properties into a CPU view representation as well as provides static methodology
for the clients to query the CPU views without substantial traversal of the model.
