Diskperf Driver WMI Sample
|
|
********************************************************************************
|
|
|
|
The Windows 2000 Professional Beta 3 DDK contains a WMI driver sample called the
|
|
diskperf driver. This driver is also standard in a Windows 2000 Professional Beta 3
|
|
installation. The driver produces instrumentation data using WMI. The recommended
|
|
way of viewing/setting data produced using WMI is WBEM.
|
|
|
|
This sample driver was also present in the Windows 2000 Beta 2 DDK. While this
|
|
application may also work with Windows 2000 Beta 2 and the driver in the Windows 2000
|
|
Beta 2 DDK, it is highly recommended that Windows 2000 Beta 3 and the Windows 2000
|
|
Beta 3 DDK be used.
|
|
|
|
This directory contains a sample WBEM application that surfaces the data
|
|
produced by the diskperf sample driver within the DDK.
|
|
|
|
To use this sample, the following steps are required:
|
|
|
|
1) Install Windows 2000 Professional Beta 3 operating system.
|
|
|
|
2) Install the WMI SDK for Windows 2000 Professional Beta 3.
|
|
|
|
3) Use NMAKE to compile and link the sample application provided here to produce
|
|
dpwbem.exe.
|
|
|
|
4) If desired, the diskperf driver in the Windows 2000 Professional Beta 3 DDK can
|
|
replace the one from the operating system install. To do so, compile the
|
|
diskperf driver in the DDK and substitute it for the standard one.
|
|
|
|
5) Open Device Manager. Select Disk Drives and view properties via the Action
|
|
menu. Choose the Advanced tab on the properties dialog and check Enable Disk
|
|
Performace Counters.
|
|
|
|
6) Restart Windows 2000 Professional and run dpwbem.exe. You should now see
|
|
instrumentation data produced by the diskperf driver visible via the WBEM
|
|
application.
