  WMI Architecture Basics
Time: 00:16 EST/05:16 GMT | News Source: Microsoft | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) is one of those technologies that tends to intimidate administrators who are unfamiliar with it. On the Performance team, we handle basic WMI issues - mainly relating to basic WMI functionality and permissions. So today, we're going to go over the WMI Basics. We're not really going to get into how to write WMI scripts - there's hundreds of online scripting resources and books available already. We are going to look at the architecture of WMI itself ...

So - what is WMI? WMI is an implementation of the Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) standard. WMI provides a uniform access mechanism to a vast collection of Windows management data and methods. WMI offers access to this information via script, C++ programming interfaces, dot net classes (system.management), and a command line tool (WMIC). Other WMI capabilities also include eventing, remoting, query, views, user extensions to schema and instrumentation, and more.
