CIM_IndicationSubscription

Primarily, an instance of CIM_IndicationSubscription defines the association between a CIM_IndicationFilter instance and a CIM_ListenerDestinationCIMXML instance. In addition, it includes a set of properties that further specify the behavior of a subscription. The most relevant properties of CIM_IndicationSubscription are:

• The Repeat Notification properties (those having “RepeatNotification” contained in their property name) define the behavior for handling indications that report the occurrence of the same underlying event (that is, the disk is still generating I/O errors and has not yet been repaired).
• The Subscription State properties (those having “SubscriptionState” contained in their property name) allow a CIM client to monitor and control the state of the subscription.
• The Subscription Failure Handling properties (OnFatalErrorPolicy, OtherOnFatalErrorPolicy, FailureTriggerTimeInterval) define the desired behavior when a fatal error occurs during subscription processing.
• The Subscription Duration properties (SubscriptionDuration, SubscriptionStartTime, SubscriptionTimeRemaining) allow to expire a subscription automatically, based upon elapsed time since its creation, and to monitor the elapsed times since creation and until expiration.

You can find more detailed information about these properties as well as the complete set of properties of CIM_IndicationSubscriptionin the CIM Event Model White Paper or in the definition of this class in the CIM Schema.
