WMI Name Space

Post by datos »

Hi Folks,

Probably a stupid question:

How can I use the following WMI Namespace in the Hostmonitor:
Root\MicrosoftExchangeV2

When I type it in in HM and when I click on the "WMI Explorer" button I receive the error message ""Error: Invalid NameSpace"

What am I doing wrong?

Regards,

Francis

Could you try "Root\CIMV2\Applications\Exchange" namespace?
It might help.

Hello Yoorix,

I tried it but I receive the same error message :(

Does it work with your system with Root\CIMV2\Applications\Exchange ?

That error means that you are not alowed to connect to the WMI specified namespace.

What version of MS Eschange do you use?
What version of windows is installed on Exchange Server?
What OS is installed on machine, where HostMonitor is running?

Are you able to find the file "exwmi.mof'" in "..\windows\system32\wbem" folder?

To ensure MicrosoftExchangeV2 namespace is present on your system you should do the following:
1. Click Start click, Run, type wbemtest, and then click OK
2. Click Connect, type root in the Server\Namespace box, and then click Login.
3. Click Enum Instances, and then type __Namespace in the Enter superclass name box.
4. Click Recursive, and then click OK

In appeared list you should try to find "__NAMESPACE.Name="MicrosoftExchangeV2" item. If record exists, than you should adjust WMI permissions to allow access to that namespace from other hosts. In other case you should try to install WMI support for your Exchange Server.
