WMI

Another option for monitoring an environment is WMI, Microsoft’s version of WBEM. WBEM is an industry initiative to develop a standardized way of accessing management information in an enterprise environment.

WMI allows you to write scripts to automate certain administrative tasks and run those scripts against remote computers. WMI can query and set information on a workstation, server, application, or supported network device.

WMI provides a way to gather hardware information from multiple physical servers or virtual servers. WMI information can be placed into a centralized database, allowing for the collection and reporting on a variety of information, including CPU, memory, operating system, and hard drive space.

WMI information can assist in determining if a system is close to maximizing compute resources, which may necessitate an upgrade to meet demands. For example, Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) uses WMI to gather hardware information from its clients and allows an administrator to manage and report on those systems based on the information gathered from the WMI queries.
