Object

scalar mandatory OctetString
A string indicating the current status of the object.
Various operational and non-operational statuses are defined.
This property is deprecated in lieu of OperationalStatus, which includes
the same semantics in its enumeration. This change is made for three reasons:
1) Status is more correctly defined as an array property. This overcomes the
limitation of describing status via a single value, when it is really a
multi-valued property (for example, an element may be OK AND Stopped.
2) A MaxLen of 10 is too restrictive and leads to unclear enumerated values. And,
3) The change to a uint16 data type was discussed when CIM V2.0 was defined.
However, existing V1.0 implementations used the string property and did not want
to modify their code. Therefore, Status was grandfathered into the Schema. Use
of the Deprecated qualifier allows the maintenance of the existing property, but
also permits an improved definition using OperationalStatus.
