WMI

[Nadir]

I have some tests perform by RMA on remote hosts, but when I want to configure a WMI test reply is "Acces denied" also I have some perfmon test in same server and woks fine.

What's authentification used by WMI? Login and mdp from RMA (like perfmon) or Connection Manager?

Thanks for reply

You should use Connection Manager. Also you have to start RMA sevice under admin account. You may specify an account for the RMA service using standard windows "Services" applet.

I have already do that for perfmon but doesnt' work with WMI.

What Windows do you use? Service Pack? HostMonitor version?
Have you enabled "WMI" item for "Use this account as default for the following test methods" option (Connection Manager dialog)?

We recommend to specify username in "Domain\username" or "Hostname\username" in connection manager.
WMI requires some specific security settings on target machine: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa389286.aspx
You mau use command line, like:

Code: Select all

netsh firewall set service remoteadmin

Please note, by default foregoing command opens firewall for any computer in Internet, so you may adjust the command an specify certain range of allowed IP-adresses:

Code: Select all

netsh firewall set service remoteadmin subnet enable subnet
netsh firewall set service remoteadmin subnet enable custom 157.60.0.1,172.16.0.0/16,10.0.0.0/255.0.0.0,LocalSubnet
