SMS_CIRelation Server WMI Class

  • Article

The SMS_CIRelation Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) class is an SMS Provider server class, in Configuration Manager, that defines the relationship between two configuration items, for example, the superseding of one item by another.

The following syntax is simplified from Managed Object Format (MOF) code and includes all inherited properties.

Syntax

Class SMS_CIRelation : SMS_BaseClass  
{  
    UInt32 FromCIID;  
    Boolean IsBroken;  
    Boolean IsVersionSpecific;  
    UInt32 Priority;  
    UInt32 RelationType;  
    UInt32 ToCIID;  
};

Methods

The SMS_CIRelation class does not define any methods.

Properties

FromCIID
Data type: UInt32

Access type: Read/Write

Qualifiers: [key]

The ID of one of the configuration items. The value of this property usually depends on the value of ToCIID in the context specified by RelationType. For example, this property can represent a child configuration item ID (FROMCIID) that is derived from a parent configuration item ID (TOCIID).

The ID of a configuration item is represented by the CI_ID property of SMS_ConfigurationItemLatestBaseClass Server WMI Class.

IsBroken
Data type: Boolean

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: [read, key]

true if the relation is broken, otherwise the value will be false.

IsVersionSpecific
Data type: Boolean

Access type: Read/Write

Qualifiers: None.

See SMS_ConfigurationItemLatestBaseClass Server WMI Class.

Priority
Data type: UInt32

Access type: Read/Write

Qualifiers: None.

One App to deployment type relation (9) has priority.

RelationType
Data type: UInt32

Access type: Read/Write

Qualifiers: None

Type of relationship between configuration items. Possible values are:

Value Relationship type
1 Bundled
2 Required
3 Prohibited
4 Optional
5 Derived
6 Superseded
7 Self
8 Reference
9 AppToDTReference
10 AppDependence
11 Intention
12 Platform
13 GlobalConditionReference
15 ApplicationSuperSeded
16 ApplicationType
17 ApplicationHost
18 ApplicationInstaller
19 SupersedOrDependent
20 VirtualEnvironmentReference
21 AppDCMReference
22 DeploymentTypeToPolicyTemplateReference
23 CIInheritanceRelation

ToCIID
Data type: UInt32

Access type: Read/Write

Qualifiers: [key]

The ID for the second configuration item that is related to the first item. The value of this property usually depends on the value of FromCIID in the context specified by RelationType. For example, this property can represent a parent configuration item ID (TOCIID) from which a child configuration item ID (FROMCIID) is derived.

The ID of a configuration item is represented by the CI_ID property of SMS_ConfigurationItemLatestBaseClass Server WMI Class.
