Changing the value of a CIM-class property

This task describes how to change the value of a CIM class property.

Attention: Do not change the value of a property unless you are thoroughly familiar with the structure and manipulation of CIM data. Setting a property value incorrectly can cause unpredictable results on the target system.

Complete these steps to change the value of a CIM-class property:

  1. In the CIM Browser window, navigate to the class instance for which you want to change a property value. In the lower-right pane, the Properties page displays the class-instance properties.
  2. Right-click the property row that you want to change.
  3. Click Set value.
  4. In the Set Value window, type the new value.
  5. Click OK. If IBM® Director cannot change the value on the target system, a message indicates the failure.
