       "CIM_Watchdog is a timer that is implemented in the system "
       "hardware. It allows the hardware to monitor the state of the "
       "Operating System, BIOS, or a software component that is "
       "installed on the System. If the monitored component fails to "
       "re-arm the timer before its expiration, the hardware assumes "
       "that the System is in a critical state, and could reset the "
       "ComputerSystem. This feature can also be used as an "
       "application watchdog timer for a mission-critical application. "
       "In this case, the application would assume responsibility for "
       "re-arming the timer before expiration.")]
