HostingBoardboolean
DescriptionstringBoolean indicating that this Card is a Motherboard or, more generically, a baseboard in a Chassis.None TRANSLATABLE= true
RequirementsDescriptionstring
DescriptionstringA free-form string describing the way(s) in which this Card is physically unique from other Cards. This property only has meaning when the corresponding boolean property, SpecialRequirements, is set to TRUE.None TRANSLATABLE= true
ModelCorrespondencestringCIM_Card.SpecialRequirementsNone None
RequiresDaughterBoardboolean
DescriptionstringBoolean indicating that at least one daughterboard or auxiliary Card is required in order to function properly.None TRANSLATABLE= true
SlotLayoutstring
DescriptionstringSlotLayout is a free-form string that describes the slot positioning, typical usage, restrictions, individual slot spacings or any other pertinent information for the slots on a Card.None TRANSLATABLE= true
SpecialRequirementsboolean
DescriptionstringBoolean indicating that this Card is physically unique from other Cards of the same type and therefore requires a special Slot. For example, a double-wide Card requires two Slots. Another example is where a certain Card may be used for the same general function as other Cards but requires a special Slot (e.g., extra long), whereas the other Cards can be placed in any available Slot. If set to TRUE, then the corresponding property, RequirementsDescription, should specify the nature of the uniqueness or purpose of the Card.None TRANSLATABLE= true
