WMI Metrics Reference Tables
Windows Server Monitor - WMI Metrics Reference Tables
This document lists the WMI namespaces, classes, and WQL queries used by AppManager Windows Server Monitor scripts in WMI mode. These reference tables can be used for troubleshooting WMI-related issues, validating WMI queries using WBEMTEST, verifying namespace and class availability, and identifying the corresponding script associated with each monitored metric or configuration attribute.
Table 1: Performance Metrics (WMI Mode)

| Scheduled Tasks | ScheduledTasks.vbs | Root\CIMV2, Root\Microsoft\Windows\TaskScheduler | Win32_LocalTime, MSFT_ScheduledTask | SELECT * FROM Win32_LocalTime; Select TaskPath From MSFT_ScheduledTask |
Table 2: Configuration Metrics (WMI Mode)
| Configuration Category | VBS Script | WMI Namespace | WMI Class | WQL Query |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| System Information - Hostname, Manufacturer, Model, Domain | conf-sys-info.vbs | Root\CIMV2 | Win32_ComputerSystem | Select * from Win32_ComputerSystem |
| System Information - BIOS Version, Serial Number | conf-sys-info.vbs | Root\CIMV2 | Win32_BIOS | Select Version,SerialNumber from Win32_BIOS |

| Printer Configuration - Name, Server, Type, Default, Status, Location | conf-prnt-info.vbs | Root\CIMV2 | Win32_Printer | Select * From Win32_Printer |
Note:
All queries listed above are executed through WMI mode in AppManager Windows Server Monitor.
Namespace availability and WMI class registration may vary based on Windows OS version and installed server roles/features.
Certain application-specific namespaces (for example: Task Scheduler, Firewall, Cluster services) may require additional WMI provider registration or elevated permissions.
If a query fails, validate the namespace, class, and WQL query using the WBEMTEST tool. By referring the steps under the section "Checking connectivity with WMI Tester" for instructions on using the wbemtest tool.
