Description
Leveraging WMI Scripting is the second in a series of two books dedicated to WMI. Understanding WMI Scripting (ISBN 1-55558-266-4), Lissoir's
first book, explained to Windows Administrators the various WMI scripting techniques and manageability capabilities of this new Windows
Server 2003 platform. Illustrated with hundreds of scripts and detailed tables, the book explained the underlying technology and how
WMI can be put to work. Lissoir focused not only on WMI programming aspects for developers but on how administrators can use what is
available in Windows for their admin work.
If you've had significant WMI experience, or have read Lissoir's first book, you are ready
to apply your WMI knowledge to any technology that interfaces with WMI. Leveraging WMI Scripting continues the presentation of WMI begun
in Understanding WMI Scripting. In this new volume, we dive deeper into WMI to understand the manageable entities of the Windows world.
Lissoir offers a structured description of the most important WMI providers available from Windows NT 4.0 to Windows Server 2003 (including
Windows 2000 and Windows XP). This covers the WMI management of the Windows Registry, Active Directory, SNMP, the Resultant Set Of Policies
(RSOP), and the Volume Shadow Service to name a few. This discussion leverages the information on building real-world scripted management
solutions presented in Lissoir's first book. Like the first volume, Leveraging WMI Scripting is based on an important concept: "learning
by practice."
Leveraging WMI Scripting addresses the most advanced topics so that you can exploit the features of various WMI interfaces
to manage the components in a real-world environment. WMI is a critical topic under Windows Server 2003, so this book provides real added
value to every Windows administrator.
