Hello Jon:
Thank you for the information, I guess the snmp option is the quick and
dirty way to go. I have never worked with WMI before, however I it is never
late to start.
Is it possible to access the MSCluster namespace using NSClient++?
We use NSClient++ for accessing performance counters at the moment but we
have not experimented with WMI yet.
Regards
Marco
