Why? I don’t recommend extending/creating a new/duplicate class for logical disks, because the instance count of your environment can get very large if you do, unless this is a small environment.
If you want volume name – this should be simple. We already have a class property on the “Windows Server 20xx Logical Disk” class called “Volume Name”. For some reason we don’t discovery it. All you need to do is come up with a WMI or script based discovery and populate this class property on our existing class. I give an example of doing that here: http://blogs.technet.com/b/kevinholman/archive/2014/01/13/creating-groups-of-computers-based-on-time-zone.aspx I’d probably just target the “Logical Disks (Server)” class for your custom discovery. The WMI statement or script, is up to you to figure out. From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of CESAR.ABREG0 .

I've tried targeting windows computer and logical disk abstract class with no success. I'm trying to get volume lable so I can create dynamic groups for overrides. Anyone done this before or created similar class? Or how can I best accomplish this? Thanks
