How to Monitor the Health of Host Integration Server with WMI

  • Article

Health monitoring refers to viewing the current status of different aspects of Host Integration Server through the WmiSnaStatus provider. You can access WmiSnaStatus provider in the same manner as you would any other instance and method provider. You use ExecQuery to query for the relevant information, and then display the information to screen or write the information to a log file. Some WmiSnaStatus classes also have methods that let you start and stop related services.

To monitor the health of Host Integration Server with WMI

  1. Connect to the namespace using GetObject with a moniker in the parameter.

  2. Retrieve the object representing the SNA Status provider using ExecQuery.

  3. Use the information gathered from the ExecQuery as appropriate.
