2- Fully redundant. Fully redundant - all of 
the congured redundancy is still available.
3 - Degraded redundancy. Degraded 
redundancy - that some failures have been 
experienced but some reduced amount of 
redundancy is still available.
4 - Redundancy lost. Redundancy lost - that 
a sucient number of failures have occurred 
so that no redundancy is available and the 
next failure experienced causes overall 
failure.
CIM_ExtraCapacityGroup
The CIM_ExtraCapacityGroup class described in below properties Table applies to systems that have more capability and components than 
are required for normal operation, for example, systems that have extra fans or power supplies.
Table 53. CIM_ExtraCapacityGroup Properties
Class Name:
CIM_ExtraCapacityGroup
Parent Class:
CIM_RedundancyGroup
Property  Description  Data Type
MinNumberNeeded Species the smallest number of elements 
that must be operational in order to have 
redundancy. For example, in an N+1 
redundancy relationship, the 
MinNumberNeeded property should be set 
to N.

DELL_PSRedundancyGroup
The DELL_PSRedundancyGroup described in Table below is a Dell-specic extension of the CIM_ExtraCapacityGroup class. The 
DELL_PSRedundancyGroup class denes what constitutes power supply redundancy in a system.
