Class CIM_PhysicalPackage
extends CIM_PhysicalElement

The PhysicalPackage class represents PhysicalElements that contain or host other components. Examples are a Rack enclosure or an adapter Card.

HotSwappableboolean
DescriptionstringA PhysicalPackage is HotSwappable if it is possible to replace the Element with a physically different but equivalent one while the containing Package has power applied to it (ie, is 'on'). For example, a disk drive Package inserted using SCA connectors is both Removable and HotSwappable. All HotSwappable packages are inherently Removable and Replaceable.None TRANSLATABLE= true
Removableboolean
DescriptionstringA PhysicalPackage is Removable if it is designed to be taken in and out of the physical container in which it is normally found, without impairing the function of the overall packaging. A Package can still be Removable if power must be 'off' in order to perform the removal. If power can be 'on' and the Package removed, then the Element is both Removable and HotSwappable. For example, an extra battery in a laptop is Removable, as is a disk drive Package inserted using SCA connectors. However, the latter is also HotSwappable. A laptop's display is not Removable, nor is a non-redundant power supply. Removing these components would impact the function of the overall packaging or is impossible due to the tight integration of the Package.None TRANSLATABLE= true
Replaceableboolean
DescriptionstringA PhysicalPackage is Replaceable if it is possible to replace (FRU or upgrade) the Element with a physically different one. For example, some ComputerSystems allow the main Processor chip to be upgraded to one of a higher clock rating. In this case, the Processor is said to be Replaceable. Another example is a power supply Package mounted on sliding rails. All Removable packages are inherently Replaceable.None TRANSLATABLE= true
