OperatingStatus provides a current status value for the operational condition of the element and can be used for providing more detail with respect to the value of EnabledState. It can also provide the transitional states when an element is transitioning from one state to another, such as when an element is transitioning between EnabledState and RequestedState, as well as other transitional conditions.
OperatingStatus consists of one of the following values: Unknown, Not Available, In Service, Starting, Stopping, Stopped, Aborted, Dormant, Completed, Migrating, Emmigrating, Immigrating, Snapshotting. Shutting Down, In Test 
A Null return indicates the implementation (provider) does not implement this property. 
\"Unknown\" indicates the implementation is in general capable of returning this property, but is unable to do so at this time. 
\"None\" indicates that the implementation (provider) is capable of returning a value for this property, but not ever for this particular piece of hardware/software or the property is intentionally not used because it adds no meaningful information (as in the case of a property that is intended to add additional info to another property). 
\"Servicing\" describes an element being configured, maintained, cleaned, or otherwise administered. 
\"Starting\" describes an element being initialized. 
\"Stopping\" describes an element being brought to an orderly stop. 
\"Stopped\" and \"Aborted\" are similar, although the former implies a clean and orderly stop, while the latter implies an abrupt stop where the state and configuration of the element might need to be updated. 
\"Dormant\" indicates that the element is inactive or quiesced. 
\"Completed\" indicates that the element has completed its operation. This value should be combined with either OK, Error, or Degraded in the PrimaryStatus so that a client can tell if the complete operation Completed with OK (passed), Completed with Error (failed), or Completed with Degraded (the operation finished, but it did not complete OK or did not report an error). 
\"Migrating\" element is being moved between host elements. 
\"Immigrating\" element is being moved to new host element. 
\"Emigrating\" element is being moved away from host element. 
\"Shutting Down\" describes an element being brought to an abrupt stop. 
\"In Test\" element is performing test functions. 
\"Transitioning\" describes an element that is between states, that is, it is not fully available in either its previous state or its next state. This value should be used if other values indicating a transition to a specific state are not applicable.
\"In Service\" describes an element that is in service and operational.
