WMI would indeed make all of this more generic, however WMI and running as service aren't very good friends :-(
Are those parameters also available via SNMP? From: Servers Alive Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Hanson, Brett Sent: Friday, March 11, 2011 1:01 AM To: Servers Alive Discussion List Subject: [SA-list] new check type request We have a situation where the team that provisions and maintains our virtual servers will decide to change the number of processors, disk space, or RAM without informing us. I’ve been working on a script to retrieve these parameters so I can check for them using Servers Alive, but it would be better if Servers Alive could perform these checks natively (and using stored credentials). What is the possibility of such checks being made? I could see this a potentially made more generic as a WMI check.
