The Rank attribute is used to declare the ranking of a particular cause-and-effect relationship among all cause- and-effect relationships that are defined by instances of this association for a particular element. 1 is the highest ranking. A rank of 1 declares that this cause-and-effect relationship is the most debilitating and should be addressed with priority over all other cause-and- effect relationships. As the rank increases, the effect imposed on the Antecedent Managed Element failure decreases. There should be only one instance of this association with a particular ranking value per Dependent instance. If there is more than one instance of the same ranking per Dependent instance, then the observer cannot determine from the model which cause-and-effect relationship to resolve first. The ranking of existing instances can change over time based on the prevailing conditions of the device.</TD> </TR> </TABLE> <H3>Association References</H3> <TABLE BORDER="1" CELLPADDING="1" WIDTH="60%"> <TR> <TH>Name</TH><TH>Class Origin</TH><TH>Reference Class</TH> </TR> <TR> <TH VALIGN="TOP">Antecedent</TH><TD VALIGN="TOP">CIM_RelatedElementCausingError</TD><TD VALIGN="TOP"><a href="CIM_ManagedElement.html">CIM_ManagedElement</a></TD> </TR> <TR> <TH VALIGN="TOP">Dependent</TH><TD VALIGN="TOP">CIM_RelatedElementCausingError</TD><TD VALIGN="TOP"><a href="CIM_ManagedElement.html">CIM_ManagedElement</a></TD> </TR> </TABLE> <h2> <a name="c_methods">Class Methods</a> </h2> </body> </html>
