# Class CIM_OpaqueManagementData
extends CIM_StorageExtent

A class derived from StorageExtent that describes opaque management data in managed systems. The structure and semantics of opaque management data, which may be standardized or proprietary, are assumed to be known by at least one management client, but need not be known by the CIM server. The UntransformedDataFormat property identifies the structure and semantics of the data. Opaque management data are typically stored in non-volatile memory that is accessible to the server. Management clients are able to read and write opaque data, to manage their lifetime, and to configure the access rights associated with them. The non-volatile storage is often used as a mailbox, with local management agents producing data for consumption by remote management clients, or vice versa. This class is not intended as a general-purpose opaque alternative to any existing or planned CIM classes. It is expressly intended for the mailbox usage model described above.

## Class Properties

### Local Class Properties

Name | Data Type | Default Value | Qualifiers
--- | --- | --- | ---
Name | Data Type | Value
DataFormat | string |
Description | string | Describes the format of the opaque management data. A free-form string that shall only be set by an authorized client, and shall not be changed by the implementation.
DataSize | uint64 |
Description | string | The number of bytes of opaque management data in the instance.
PUnit | string | byte
LastAccessed | datetime |
Description | string | The date and time when the opaque management data was last accessed. Any operation on the OpaqueManagementData instance constitutes access. This property shall be NULL if it is not supported by the implementation.
MaxSize | uint64 |
Description | string | The maximum number of bytes of opaque management data that the instance may contain.
PUnit | string | byte
WriteLimited | uint16 |
Description | string | Indicates whether the data are stored on a medium that has a limited number of write/erase cycles (e.g., flash memory).
ValueMap | string | 0, 1, 2, ..
Values | string | Unknown, Not write-limited, Write-limited, DMTF Reserved
