PROPERTY	SMS_REPORT	CIMTYPE	DESCRIPTION
Caption		String	The Caption property is a short textual description (one-line string) of the object.
CreationClassName		String	CreationClassName 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.
Description		String	The Description property provides a textual description of the object.
FormFactor		UInt16	The implementation form factor for the chip.For example, values such as SIMM (7), TSOP (9) or PGA (10) can be specified.
HotSwappable		Boolean	A physical component can be hot swapped if it is possible to replace the element with a physically different but equivalent one while the containing package has power applied to it (i.e., is 'on'). For example, a fan component may be designed to be hot swapped. All components that can be hot swapped are inherently removable and replaceable .
InstallDate		DateTime	The InstallDate property is datetime value indicating when the object was installed. A lack of a value does not indicate that the object is not installed.
Manufacturer		String	The name of the organization responsible for producing the physical element. This may be the entity from whom the element is purchased, but this is not necessarily true. The latter information is contained in the Vendor property of CIM_Product.
Model		String	The name by which the physical element is generally known.
Name		String	The Name property defines the label by which the object is known. When subclassed, the Name property can be overridden to be a Key property.
OtherIdentifyingInfo		String	OtherIdentifyingInfo captures additional data, beyond asset tag information, that could be used to identify a physical element. One example is bar code data associated with an element that also has an asset tag. Note that if only bar code data is available and is unique/able to be used as an element key, this property would be NULL and the bar code data used as the class key, in the tag property.
PartNumber		String	The part number assigned by the organization responsible for producing or manufacturing the physical element.
PoweredOn		Boolean	Boolean indicating that the physical element is powered on (TRUE), or is currently off (FALSE).
Removable		Boolean	A physical component 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 component can still be removable if power must be 'off' in order to perform the removal. If power can be 'on' and the component removed, then the element is removable and can be hot swapped. For example, an upgradeable processor chip is removable.
Replaceable		Boolean	A physical component is replaceable if it is possible to replace (FRU or upgrade) the element with a physically different one. For example, some computer systems 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 . All removable components are inherently replaceable .
SerialNumber		String	A manufacturer-allocated number used to identify the PhysicalElement.
SKU		String	The stock keeping unit number for this physical element.
Status		String	The Status property is a string indicating the current status of the object. Various operational and non-operational statuses can be defined. Operational statuses are "OK", "Degraded" and "Pred Fail". "Pred Fail" indicates that an element may be functioning properly but predicting a failure in the near future. An example is a SMART-enabled hard drive. Non-operational statuses can also be specified. These are "Error", "Starting", "Stopping" and "Service". The latter, "Service", could apply during mirror-resilvering of a disk, reload of a user permissions list, or other administrative work. Not all such work is on-line, yet the managed element is neither "OK" nor in one of the other states.
Tag		String	An arbitrary string that uniquely identifies the physicalelement and serves as the element's key. The Tag property can contain information such as asset tag or serial number data. The key for CIM_PhysicalElement is placed very high in the object hierarchy in order to independently identify the hardware/entity, regardless of physical placement in or on cabinets, adapters, etc. For example, a removable component that can be hot swapped, may be taken from its containing (scoping) package and be temporarily unused. The object still continues to exist - and may even be inserted into a different scoping container. Therefore, the key for physicalelement is an arbitrary string and is defined independently of any placement or location-oriented hierarchy.
Version		String	A string indicating the version of the physical element.
