Scripting Using Microsoft Windows Management Instrumentation

Course 2439—Two days—Instructor-led

Introduction

The goal of this course is to teach Microsoft Windows 2000 operating system administrators how to develop Microsoft VisualBasic Script-based scripts that use the resources of Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI). Administrators will use thesescripts to perform a number of common tasks in the Microsoft Windows operating system environment.

Audience

This course is intended for Windows 2000 systems administrators who need to learn how to develop administrative scriptsfor their enterprise networks. In addition, this course benefits anyone who wants to learn about Windows Management Instrumentation.

At Course Completion

At the end of the course, students will be able to:

•

Describe Windows Management Instrumentation and the Common Information Model (CIM).

•

Use the WMI Software Developer Kit (SDK) Tools CIM Studio, WMI Event Registration, and WMI Event Viewer.

•

Use the SDK documentation to research WMI classes.

•

Describe the WMI Scripting API.

•

Develop scripts that make local or remote connections to any WMI resources.

•

Develop scripts that can efficiently query management data from local or remote resources.

•

Develop scripts that can write to WMI local or remote resources.

•

Describe the WMI event architecture.

•

Develop scripts that can configure, monitor, and implement WMI events.

•

Identify how they can apply WMI Scripting API scripts to access future resources that use Windows Management Instrumentation.
