It does NOT indicate whether the software is " "installed, executing, etc. (The latter is the role of the " "SoftwareFeature/ SoftwareElement classes and the Application " "Model.) Since software may be acquired, SoftwareIdentity can " "be associated with a Product using the " "ProductSoftwareComponent relationship.\n" "Note that the Application Model manages the deployment and " "installation of software via the classes, SoftwareFeatures and " "SoftwareElements. The deployment/installation concepts are " "related to the asset/identity one. In fact, a " "SoftwareIdentity may correspond to a Product, or to one or " "more SoftwareFeatures or SoftwareElements - depending on the " "granularity of these classes and the deployment model. The " "correspondence of Software Identity to Product, " "SoftwareFeature or SoftwareElement is indicated using the " "ConcreteIdentity association. Note that there may not be " "sufficient detail or instrumentation to instantiate " "ConcreteIdentity. And, if the association is instantiated, " "some duplication of information may result. For example, the " "Vendor described in the instances of Product and " "SoftwareIdentity MAY be the same. However, this is not " "necessarily true, and it is why vendor and similar information " "are duplicated in this class.\n" "Note that ConcreteIdentity can also be used to describe the " "relationship of the software to any LogicalFiles that result " "from installing it. As above, there may not be sufficient " "detail or instrumentation to instantiate this association.") ] class CIM_SoftwareIdentity : CIM_LogicalElement { [Key, Description ( "Within the scope of the instantiating Namespace, InstanceID " "opaquely and uniquely identifies an instance of this " "class. In order to ensure uniqueness within the NameSpace, " "the value of InstanceID SHOULD be constructed using the " "following 'preferred' algorithm:\n" ":\n" "Where and are separated by a colon ':', " "and where MUST include a copyrighted, trademarked " "or otherwise unique name that is owned by the business " "entity creating/defining the InstanceID, or is a registered " "ID that is assigned to the business entity by a recognized " "global authority (This is similar to the _ structure of Schema class names.) In " "addition, to ensure uniqueness MUST NOT contain a " "colon (':'). When using this algorithm, the first colon to " "appear in InstanceID MUST appear between and " ".\n" " is chosen by the business entity and SHOULD not " "be re-used to identify different underlying (real-world) " "elements. If the above 'preferred' algorithm is not used, " "the defining entity MUST assure that the resultant " "InstanceID is not re-used across any InstanceIDs produced " "by this or other providers for this instance's NameSpace.\n" "For DMTF defined instances, the 'preferred' algorithm MUST " "be used with the set to 'CIM'.") ] string InstanceID; [Description ( "The major number component of the software's version " "information - for example, '12' from version 12.1(3)T.
