SupportedAsynchronousActions | uint16[] |
Description | string | Enumeration indicating what operations will be executed as asynchronous jobs. If an operation is included in both this and SupportedSynchronousActions then the underlying implementation is indicating that it may or may not create a job. If a Job is created, then the methods in SoftwareInstallationService return a reference to that Job as the Job parameter.

Description

string

An array containing a list of the binary format types that this service 'knows' how to install. The Values for this property are the subset of CIM_SoftwareIdentityResource.ExtendedResourceTypes that apply to the 'Installer and Payload', 'Installer' and ' Installability Checker' ResourceTypes. For example, an a Windows system, this property may be set to '4' indicating 'Windows MSI'. This property should be set to '2' (Not Applicable) if this service is not OS specific.

SupportedInstallOptions | uint16[] |
Description | string | An enumeration indicating the specific install related optionssupported by this service. Since this is an array, multiple values may be specified. See the InstallOptions parameter of theSoftwareInstallationService.InstallFromSoftwareIdentity method for the description of these values.

SupportedSynchronousActions | uint16[] |
Description | string | Enumeration indicating what operations will be executed without the creation of a job. If an operation is included in both this and SupportedAsynchronousActions then the underlying instrumentation is indicating that it may or may not create a job.
ModelCorrespondence | string | CIM_SoftwareInstallationServiceCapabilities.SupportedAsynchronousActions
Required | boolean | true
ValueMap | string | 2, 3, 4, 5
Values | string | None supported, Install From Software Identity, Install from ByteStream, Install from URI
SupportedTargetTypes | string[] |

Description

string

An array containing a list of SoftwareIdentity.TargetType properties that this service 'knows' how to install. TargetType is an application specific string which is invariant across version or name changes of the SoftwareIdentity and so can be used by a client to select Software Identities compatible with this service. If the service is generic (for example an OS installer), this array will be empty.

Values | string | data, file, ftp, http, https, nfs, tftp, DMTF Reserved, Vendor Specific
