Most classes in the dccim32 provider document both a Class Name and a Parent Class property. The parent class is the class from which any given class inherits its core properties. For example, the CIM_Controller class has the CIM_LogicalDevice class as its parent, and has various types of controllers ( CIM_ParallelController, CIM_SerialController) as its children.
