CIM via PowerShell

Getting Started

The PowerShell components required (below), are only capable of being installed on Windows 6 and later (Vista, Win2k8, Windows 7). Windows XP and Windows 2003 are not capable of performing the remoting features required in order to be able to support WinRM (although this may change in future releases). See PowerShell Installed Version in order to determine what version of Powershell you have installed currently.

• Windows 2008 only - Windows 7 and Win2k8 R2 are shipped with these already installed
  • Windows PowerShell 2.0 (CTP3/RTM)
  • WinRM 2.0 (CTP3/RTM)
