CIM_Namespace class
Namespace provides a domain (in other words, a container), in which the instances [of a class] are guaranteed to be unique per the KEY qualifier definitions. It is named relative to the CIM_ObjectManager implementation that provides such a domain.
The following syntax is simplified from Managed Object Format (MOF) code and includes all of the inherited properties.

Members
The CIM_Namespace class has these types of members:
Properties
The CIM_Namespace class has these properties.
-
Caption
-
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: MaxLen (64)
The Caption property is a short textual description (one- line string) of the object.
This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedElement.
-
-
ClassInfo
-
-
Data type: uint16
-
Access type: Read/write
-
Qualifiers: Deprecated ("CIM_Namespace.ClassType"), Required, ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_Namespace.DescriptionOfClassInfo")
Enumeration indicating the organization/schema of the Namespace's objects. For example, they may be instances of classes of a specific CIM version.

ClassType
-
Data type: uint16
-
Access type: Read/write
-
Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_Namespace.DescriptionOfClassType", "CIM_Namespace.ClassTypeVersion")
Enumeration indicating the schema of the Namespace's objects. For example, they may be instances of classes of a specific CIM version or a mapping from another standard, such as SNMP. If 'Other' is selected, the DescriptionOfClassType property MUST be populated.

CMIP Recast (202)
ClassTypeVersion
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read/write
-
Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_Namespace.DescriptionOfClassType", "CIM_Namespace.ClassType")
The version of the objects in this namespace. The string representing the version MUST be in the form:
M + "." + N + "." + U
Where:
M - The major version (in numeric form)
N - The minor version (in numeric form)
U - The update (e.g. errata, patch, ..., in numeric form)
CreationClassName
CreationClassName indicates the name of the class or the subclass used in the creation of an instance. When used with the other key properties of this class, this property allows all instances of this class and its subclasses to be uniquely identified.
Description
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
Contains a textual description of the object.
This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedElement.
DescriptionOfClassInfo
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read/write
-
Qualifiers: Deprecated ("CIM_Namespace.DescriptionOfClassType"), ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_Namespace.ClassInfo")
A string providing more detail (beyond the general classification in ClassInfo) for the object hierarchy of the Namespace.
DescriptionOfClassType
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read/write
-
Qualifiers: ModelCorrespondence ("CIM_Namespace.ClassType", "CIM_Namespace.ClassTypeVersion")
A string providing more detail (beyond the general classification in ClassInfo) for the object hierarchy of the Namespace.
ElementName
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
Contains a user-friendly name for the object. This property allows each instance to define a user-friendly name in addition to its key properties, identity data, and description information.
This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedElement.
Name
A string to uniquely identify the Namespace within the ObjectManager.
ObjectManagerCreationClassName
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: Key, Propagated ("CIM_ObjectManager.CreationClassName"), MaxLen (256)
The scoping ObjectManager's CreationClassName.
ObjectManagerName
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: Key, Propagated ("CIM_ObjectManager.Name"), MaxLen (256)
The scoping ObjectManager's Name.
SystemCreationClassName
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: Key, Propagated ("CIM_ObjectManager.SystemCreationClassName"), MaxLen (256)
The scoping System's CreationClassName.
SystemName
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: Key, Propagated ("CIM_ObjectManager.SystemName"), MaxLen (256)
The scoping System's Name.
