Check WMI on SCCM-server
If you have problems with WMI on a SCCM server you have will have loads of strange things happening.
Wrote a small VBScript to check WMI… here it is:
Set oLocator = CreateObject("WbemScripting.SWbemLocator") ' --- Checking local WMI WScript.Echo " Connect: root\CIMV2" Set oWMIService = oLocator.ConnectServer(".", "root\CIMV2", "", "") WScript.Echo " Query: Select UUID from Win32_ComputerSystemProduct" Set oWmiQuery = oWMIService.ExecQuery("Select UUID from Win32_ComputerSystemProduct") For Each oUuid In oWmiQuery sUuid = oUuid.UUID WScript.Echo "Response: " & sUuid Exit For Next WScript.Echo "" ' --- Figure out site code WScript.Echo " Connect: root\sms" Set oWMIService = oLocator.ConnectServer(".", "root\sms", "", "") WScript.Echo " Query: SELECT SiteCode FROM SMS_ProviderLocation WHERE ProviderForLocalSite=true" Set oWmiQuery = oWMIService.ExecQuery("SELECT SiteCode FROM SMS_ProviderLocation WHERE ProviderForLocalSite=true") For each currentSite in oWmiQuery sSccmSiteCode = currentSite.SiteCode WScript.Echo "Response: " & sSccmSiteCode Exit For Next WScript.Echo "" ' --- Connect to site WScript.Echo " Connect: root\sms\site_" & sSccmSiteCode Set oWMIService = oLocator.ConnectServer(".", "root\sms\site_" & sSccmSiteCode, "", "") WScript.Echo " Query: Select Name, ResourceID FROM SMS_R_System WHERE SmbiosGuid = '" & sUuid & "'" Set oWmiQuery = oWMIService.ExecQuery("Select ResourceID FROM SMS_R_System WHERE SmbiosGuid = '" & sUuid & "'") For each myMachine in oWmiQuery WScript.Echo "Response: " & myMachine.ResourceID Exit For Next
