The CIM_ManagedElement that is associated with this instance of HP_Location would be contained in
slot 1 because array element 0 always applies to the CIM_ManagedElement associated with
HP_Location and described by the ElementLocationTag/ElementLocationTagDesc properties. For
example if these properties contained the values “1:3:1”/’PCI Bus:Device:Function’, the client could
assume the device a slot are PCI. Furthermore, from array element 1 you can determine that this PCI
slot number 1 is contained inside chassis number 2 from the combination of values “Chassis”/”2”. A more
complex example follows:

From this information clients can determine that the CIM_ManagedElement associated directly with
HP_Location is contained in slot number 1. This slot number 1 is contained Chassis Number 3. Chassis
Number 3 is contained in Slot number 2 (a chassis slot in this case). Chassis slot 2 is contained in
Chassis Number 2. This describes a very hypothetical computer that has a chassis that contains chassis
slots. One of the slots contains a chassis with PCI slots and one of those slots contains a
CIM_ManagedElement.
This property is optional because some provider sets build out instances of the physical hierarchy and
wouldn’t need to report the containment using this property pair.
7.1.7 ElementName (mandatory)
The ElementName property is defined as a user displayable name of the object, when Name is used as a
key. This property shall contain the name of the object and its location, in a user displayable format,
using the information in the Location class. See the examples in section 2.
7.1.8 Description (optional)
The Description property is defined as a detailed description of the object. If this property is implemented,
it shall contain the name of the object and its full location, in a user displayable format, using the
information in the Location class. See the examples in section 2.
