Testing wmi Access through wbemtest

How To


Summary

wbemtest is a Microsoft tool that can be used to test remote access on a target system. In case TADDM throws error related to WMI connection via Gateway, wbemtest is used to test that connection manually.
TADDM discovery fails with a variety of access errors. Those could be related to either connection or while running specific queries after connecting to the target.

If this test doesn't give expected output, it needs to be checked with System Admins. If test runs successfully then it should be troubleshooted from other perspectives.

Note: This test does not prove that the user has all the necessary authority to successfully complete the discovery.
