### Local Class Methods

#### CreateAccount (uint32)

#### Method Qualifiers (CreateAccount)

Name | Data Type | Value
--- | --- | ---

Description

string

CreateAccount creates an Account on the specified ComputerSystem. Upon successful completion of the method, there shall be a newly created instance of CIM_Account associated through the CIM_AccountOnSystem association with the instance of ComputerSystem identified by the System parameter such that each property of the CIM_Account instance has the value of the corresponding property of the template instance specified by the AccountTemplate parameter and the CIM_Account instance is associated with this instance of CIM_AccountManagementService through the CIM_ServiceAffectsElement association. Instances of CIM_Identity may be created by the method and associated with the instance of CIM_Account through CIM_AssignedIdentity. If one or more instances of CIM_Identity are created, a reference to each shall be returned in the Identities parameter, otherwise the Identities parameter shall be NULL upon method completion.
