We test several servers (40+), all with AHM 6.80, RMA 3.38.
We use WMI test to monitor free physical memory (select AvailableKBytes from Win32_PerfFormattedData_PerfOS_Memory)
On almost all servers this works great, however on 2 specific servers an error is returned: Invalid Class
What could be causing this?
Invalid Class?

Re: Invalid Class?
Isuppose, on these specific servers installed Windows 2000, right? As I remember, Windows 2000 does not have Win32_PerfFormattedData_PerfOS_Memory class. You have to use Win32_PerfRawData_PerfOS_Memory instead.UnOa wrote:On almost all servers this works great, however on 2 specific servers an error is returned: Invalid Class

Actually, it is hard to say what is wrong with your server. Lets try to figure it out:UnOa wrote:However, the other one is in fact a Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition with Service Pack 1. It is in use as a Citrix Terminal Server.
Any ideas?
1. Please run wbemtest.exe utility to ensure the Win32_PerfFormattedData_PerfOS_Memory class is present on the system.
2. Type the following command at the command prompt on target server:
Code: Select all
wbemadap /f
4. Also you may try the following trick (you have to take responsibility

a) Stop the "Windows Management Instrumentation" service on the problem server.
b) On the problem server, rename the %systemroot%\system32\wbem\Repository folder to %systemroot%\system32\wbem\Repository\Repository.bak.
c) Copy the %systemroot%\system 32\wbem\Repository folder from a known good 2003 server to the problem server
d) Start the WMI service
