I've never been able to use WMIC with PSEXEC. Same message/behavior. I usually use PowerShell's Get-WmiObject (GWMI for short) cmdlet since it can connect to a remote machine and run WMI queries.
From: Christopher Bodnar [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, January 13, 2010 8:25 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: psexec and WMIC I'm trying to run a WMIC command remotely using PSEXEC on a bunch of servers and getting this: Please wait while WMIC compiles updated MOF files. And it just hangs there. If I log on to the remote machine and run the WMIC command it works fine. Anyone see this before?
