I have a WMI Provider SDK Sample Question!

[Gael_H_Intel]

Lance? Andy? RB? Anyone? I'm playing with the new Intel AMT SDK - trying to run the WMI samples. I'm not having much luck. WMI service is running... AMT is enabled (Duh...) :-) Has anyone tried these samples out yet?

For me, the SystemProperties.vbs sample just runs when I click on it (or run it from a command window). So it sounds like it's time for the typical questions!

1. What type of system are you running it on?
2. What kind of error are you getting, if any?
3. Does the system have the IMSS installed? The AMT WMI providerisn't part of IMSS, but it is part of the OS install package for AMT, so if IMSS isn't there, the WMI provider probably isn't there either.

Well, it's an OEM system - HP 8100 Elite, Small Form Factor. Yes - IMSS is installed. It crashes on line 24 - the first time it tries to access /root/Intel_ME. It looks like HP did not include the WMI portion of the Install. I'll go out and see if HP has the appropriate software on their website.

BTW - Our AMT 6.0 Toshiba Notebookhas it installed...

Here is an update. HP has updatedME Firmware on their support site - the system came with FW version 6.0.3.1195. Theirnewest version is6.0.3.1208- itwas added totheir site on February 19th and this FW fixes some issues with the MPS connections. So it will be a good idea for our community members to check their FW versions.

There is also a new Intel AMT LMS_SOL for AMT 6.xx on the HP Support site (updated on March 28.) I installed this package (sp46890.exe) and now the "Intel_ME"Namespaceshows up in the WMI Control Security Properties. Problem fixed- WMI Samples are not crashing.

Ok... Not that I'm vain, or anything like that, but could you mark my answer as "Best Answer?" It won't let me do it. And I think it wasthe best answer.

Being the thread creator, you should be the only one that can mark best answer.

[Gael_H_Intel]

I can mark your posts and Andy's post as Best Answer, but not mine. Same is true for the Rating "Feature". I think it's a "Vanity" gaurd.

Only you can select a best answer for this thread.
Apparently it won't let you select your own.I think it assumesthat all your posts are continuation of the question.
