AvailableSpaceuint64
DescriptionstringAvailableSpace indicates the total amount of free space for the FileSystem, in bytes. If unknown, enter 0.None TRANSLATABLE= true
GaugebooleantrueNone None
MappingStringsstringMIF.DMTF|Host File System|001.14, MIF.DMTF|Partition|002.4None None
UnitsstringBytesNone TRANSLATABLE= true
BlockSizeuint64
DescriptionstringFileSystems can read/write data in blocks which are defined independently of the underlying StorageExtents. This property captures the FileSystem's block size for data storage and retrieval.None TRANSLATABLE= true
UnitsstringBytesNone TRANSLATABLE= true
CasePreservedboolean
DescriptionstringIndicates that the case of file names are preserved.None TRANSLATABLE= true
CaseSensitiveboolean
DescriptionstringIndicates that case sensitive file names are supported.None TRANSLATABLE= true
ClusterSizeuint32
DescriptionstringThe minimum file allocation size (an integral number of blocks), imposed by the FileSystem. (The size of a block is specified in the BlockSize property for the FileSystem.) Minimum allocation size is the smallest amount of storage allocated to a LogicalFile by the FileSystem. This is not a mandatory minimum allocation for all FileSystems. Under stress conditions, some FileSystems may allocate storage in amounts smaller than the ClusterSize.None TRANSLATABLE= true
CompressionMethodstring
DescriptionstringA free form string indicating the algorithm or tool used to compress the FileSystem. If it is not possible or not desired to describe the compression scheme (perhaps because it is not known), recommend using the following words: "Unknown" to represent that it is not known whether the FileSystem is compressed or not, "Compressed" to represent that the FileSystem is compressed but either its compression scheme is not known or not disclosed, and "Not Compressed" to represent that the FileSystem is not compressed.None TRANSLATABLE= true

CreationClassNamestring
DescriptionstringCreationClassName 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.None TRANSLATABLE= true

EncryptionMethodstring
DescriptionstringA free form string indicating the algorithm or tool used to encrypt the FileSystem. If it is not possible or not desired to describe the encryption scheme (perhaps for security reasons), recommend using the following words: "Unknown" to represent that it is not known whether the FileSystem is encrypted or not, "Encrypted" to represent that the FileSystem is encrypted but either its encryption scheme is not known or not disclosed, and "Not Encrypted" to represent that the FileSystem is not encrypted.None TRANSLATABLE= true
MappingStringsstringMIF.DMTF|Partition|002.8None None
FileSystemSizeuint64
DescriptionstringThe FileSystemSize property stores the total size of the FileSystem in bytes. If unknown, enter 0.None TRANSLATABLE= true
MappingStringsstringMIF.DMTF|Host File System|001.13None None
UnitsstringBytesNone TRANSLATABLE= true
FileSystemTypestring
DescriptionstringString describing the type of FileSystem and therefore, its conventions. For example, "NTFS" or "S5" may be listed as well as any additional information on the FileSystem's implementation. Since various flavors of FileSystems (like S5) exist, this property is defined as a string.None TRANSLATABLE= true
MappingStringsstringMIF.DMTF|Partition|002.6, MIF.DMTF|Host File System|001.4None None
MaxFileNameLengthuint32
DescriptionstringInteger indicating the maximum length of a file name within the FileSystem. 0 indicates that there is no limit on file name length.None TRANSLATABLE= true
Namestring
DescriptionstringThe inherited Name serves as key of a FileSystem instance within a ComputerSystem.None TRANSLATABLE= true

ReadOnlyboolean
DescriptionstringIndicates that the FileSystem is designated as read only.None TRANSLATABLE= true

Rootstring
DescriptionstringPath name or other information defining the root of the FileSystem.None TRANSLATABLE= true
