Summary

In this chapter, we have taken a quick look at the basics of using the WMI and CIM cmdlets. It should be clear that there is a lot of information in the WMI repository, and these cmdlets are essential tools for PowerShell scripters. With the introduction of CDXML modules, we're also seeing more cmdlets that are customized to specific WMI classes, making their usage even easier.

In the final chapter, we will look at administering Internet Information Services (IIS).
