How to Handle Configuration Manager Asynchronous Errors by Using WMI
Applies To: System Center Configuration Manager 2007, System Center Configuration Manager 2007 R2, System Center Configuration Manager 2007 R3, System Center Configuration Manager 2007 SP1, System Center Configuration Manager 2007 SP2
In Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager 2007, when an error occurs in an asynchronous call, the error object is passed as the second parameter to the OnCompleted method. Inside your OnCompleted implementation, you check the error object the same as you would for a synchronous call.
You determine if there is an error by checking the HResult parameter of the OnCompleted method.
Example
This VBScript sample displays error information if there is a error during an asynchronous operation. To use this code, replace the sink_OnCompleted method in How to Perform an Asynchronous Configuration Manager Query by Using WMI. To test, change the query to an invalid query such as Select * From ?????.
For information about calling the sample code, see Calling Configuration Manager Code Snippets.
Sub sink_OnCompleted(HResult, oErr, oCtx)
WScript.Echo "All collections returned"
if HResult <> 0 Then
' Determine the type of error.
If oErr.Path_.Class = "__ExtendedStatus" Then
WScript.Echo "WMI Error: "& oErr.Description
ElseIf ExtendedStatus.Path_.Class = "SMS_ExtendedStatus" Then
WScript.Echo "Provider Error: "& oErr.Description
WScript.Echo "Code: " & oErr.ErrorCode
End If
End If
bdone = true
End sub
Security
Using script to pass the user name and password is a security risk and should be avoided where possible.
