> WMI - Windows Management Instrumentation

The foundations for Manageability in Windows XP/Windows 2000 and Windows Millennium Edition/Windows 98 are Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI; formerly WBEM) and WMI extensions for Windows Driver Model (WDM).

GFI Network Server Monitor provides the ability to build monitor check routines based on WMI. GFI has collected more than a hundred WMI samples. You can use these samples as a base for new check routines you can write yourself.
