Host Hardware RAID Controller (Host Elements, Clause 8)
Systems that plug into backplanes or are on mother boards should use this profile.
CIM_ComputerSystem
For each supported subsystem, there must be one top-level CIM_ComputerSystem object in the implementation namespace associated to the Registered Profile (in the interop namespace) through a CIM_ElementConformsToProfile association. All hosted services shall be associated to this top-level Computer System object. Consult the Array Package Diagram in Clause 4 of the SMI-S Block Devices book for more details.
Note Additional Computer System (CS) objects associated to the top-level CS are used when discovering ports. These will be associated to the top-level CS through the CIM_ComponentCS association
