WMI Providor

Hi,



I have been installing your product, however reading in your online help i require a WMI from MS to install on the remote computer.



*extract*

Make sure to have WMI installed on the remote computer. WMI is part of Windows 2000,XP and 2003 platforms. It is optional for Windows NT. WMI can be downloaded from following URL:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/downloads/list/wmi.asp



This location provides a mutiple choice of downloads. Can you direct me to the correct download to use to utilise the service item of your product.



Also the name used to specify the service on the remote machine, is this :

a, Display name i.e. DNS Client

b, Service name i.e. Dnscache



Thanks in advance

1/ The link depends on the platform you wish to monitor.

2/ You need to enter the service name as in the Windows properties.

example: World Wide Web Publishing is W3SVC

All Servers are Windows2000 Server



Thanks

WMI is part of Windows 2000 and should be listed in your Services list.



WMI Performance Adapter is the service name and should be started.

Thanks .. i checked again.. Win2k does not need the WMICore as its already installed.



It was a case of spelling..



Thanks
