# Class CIM_StorageMediaLocation
extends CIM_PackageLocation

StorageMediaLocation is a PackageLocation where PhysicalMedia may be placed. This class is typically used in the context of a StorageLibrary. Examples of StorageMediaLocations are Media AccessDevices, InterLibraryPorts or 'slots' in a Library's panel.

Description

string

Certain StorageMediaLocations may only be able to accept a limited set of PhysicalMedia MediaTypes. This property defines an array containing the types of Media that are acceptable for placement in the Location. Additional information and description of the contained MediaTypes can be provided using the TypesDescription array. Also, size data (for example, DVD disc diameter) can be specified using the MediaSizesSupported array. Values defined here correspond to those in the CIM_Physical Media.MediaType property. This allows quick comparisons using value equivalence calculations. It is understood that there is no external physical difference between (for example) DVD- Video and DVD-RAM. But, equivalent values in both the Physical Media and StorageMediaLocation enumerations allows for one for one comparisons with no additional processing logic (i.e., the following is not required ... if "DVD-Video" then value="DVD").
