If you would like to see us develop a WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation) course please vote here by signing up for our notification list. Once we get enough interest, we will create the course.

WMI: allows VBScript programmers to do things like reboot remote computers, gather statistics (such memory, software installed, virus control) from remote computers, and automate programs and common administrative tasks like SQL, LDAP, Biztalk, etc...

Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) is the Microsoft implementation of Web-based Enterprise Management (WBEM), which is an industry initiative to develop a standard technology for accessing management information in an enterprise environment. WMI uses the Common Information Model (CIM) industry standard to represent systems, applications, networks, devices, and other managed components. CIM is developed and maintained by the Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF).
