# Class CIM_ProductServiceComponent
extends CIM_ProductElementComponent

Indicates that the referenced Service is acquired as part of a Product. Examples of Services that may be acquired are outsourced storage and networking services, or support and warranty services. Expanding on the examples, Services represent generic functionality - so, it is possible to model the existence of storage volume management or warranty services as individual instances of subclasses of CIM_Service. These 'Services' may be enabled/disabled, started/stopped, signal an error, etc. (They behave as standard ManagedSystemElements.) Specific requests against the Services - for example, a request for warranty service or increased storage space - are NOT new instances of Service, but may be requested via the methods of the Service subclass, or be instantiated as specific subclasses of ManagedElement.This class is maintained for compatibility with existing implementations, but may be deprecated in favor of ProductElementComponent in the future.
