  • Article

The DNS WMI Provider defines the following DNS WMI classes.

Microsoft DNS WMI class Description
MicrosoftDNS_Server Describes a DNS Server. Every instance of this class may be associated with one instance of class MicrosoftDNS_Cache, one instance of class MicrosoftDNS_RootHints, and multiple instances of class MicrosoftDNS_Zone.
MicrosoftDNS_Domain Represents a domain in a DNS hierarchy tree.
MicrosoftDNS_Zone Describes a DNS Zone. Every instance of the class MicrosoftDNS_Zone must be assigned to exactly one DNS Server. Zones may be associated with multiple instances of the classes MicrosoftDNS_Domain and MicrosoftDNS_ResourceRecord.
MicrosoftDNS_Cache Describes a cache existing on a DNS Server (do not confuse this with a cache file that contains root hints). This class simplifies visualizing the containment of DNS objects, rather than representing a real object. The class, MicrosoftDNS_Cache, is a container for the resource records cached by the DNS Server. Every instance of the class MicrosoftDNS_Cache must be assigned to exactly one DNS Server. It may be associated with multiple instances of MicrosoftDNS_Domain and MicrosoftDNS_ResourceRecord.
MicrosoftDNS_RootHints Describes the RootHints stored in a cache file on a DNS Server. This class simplifies visualizing the containment of DNS objects, rather than representing a real object. Class MicrosoftDNS_RootHints is a container for the resource records stored by the DNS Server in a cache file. Every instance of the class MicrosoftDNS_RootHints must be assigned to exactly one DNS Server. It may be associated with multiple instances of the MicrosoftDNS_ResourceRecord class.
MicrosoftDNS_Statistic Represents a single DNS Server statistic.
MicrosoftDNS_ServerDomainContainment Every instance of the class MicrosoftDNS_ServerDomainContainment may contain multiple instances of the class MicrosoftDNS_Domain.
MicrosoftDNS_DomainDomainContainment Every instance of the MicrosoftDNS_DomainDomainContainment class may contain multiple other instances of MicrosoftDNS_Domain.
MicrosoftDNS_DomainResourceRecordContainment Every instance of the class MicrosoftDNS_DomainResourceRecordContainment may contain multiple instances of the MicrosoftDNS_ResourceRecord class.
