Using a test script to query WMI objects

The Test feature located in the
Discovery Center
under the
Centralized Management
UI is not supported for the
SolutionPack for Microsoft Hyper-V
. Instead, use the test method presented in this topic.
The
SolutionPack for Microsoft Hyper-V
provides a script that can be used to check if is possible to query all required WMI objects using the provided user. The script is in the folder
<APG_FOLDER>/Collecting/XML-Collector/<SolutionPack_instance_name>/conf/
. You must execute the script from the Collect
SolutionPack
Block machine. Use the following syntax to run the script:
TestWMI.ps1 -Computer
<ip-or-hostname>
-Username
<domain-or-machine\username>
-Password
<password>
[-NoPing]
-Computer
Remote Hyper-V host IP address or hostname
-Username
Username used to perform remote WMI queries, in the format
DOMAIN\username
for domain users or
MACHINE\username
for local users
-Password
Password of the user specified with the
-Username
parameter
-NoPing
(optional) If the remote Hyper-V host is blocking ping requests, you must use this parameter to skip connectivity tests
