How to install the Win32_Product WMI Class on Windows Server 2003 and Windows SBS 2003

How to install Win32_Product WMI Class on Windows Server 2003 and Windows SBS 2003

The Win32_Product class is not installed by default on Windows Server 2003. If you want to run a WMI script against a Windows 2003 machine you’ll need to do the following:

1.

In Add or Remove Programs, click Add/Remove Windows Components.

2.

In the Windows Components Wizard, select Management and Monitoring Tools and then click Details.

3.

In the Management and Monitoring Tools dialog box, select WMI Windows Installer Provider and then click OK.

4.

Click Next.

Please note that you will require Server 2003 or SBS 2003 – Disk 1 in the drive at the time of adding the component to your server.

This is known to impact the GFI Max Remote Management Asset Tracking feature when running on a Windows Server 2003 or Windows SBS 2003 server.  Software Versions may not be displayed for some products as GFI use a WMI query to the Win32_Product WMI Class which is not installed by default.

Update Rollup 3 for Windows Small Business Server 2011 (SBS 2011) has been Released

Update Rollup 3 for Windows Small Business Server 2011 (SBS 2011) brings support for deploying Windows 8 in your SBS 2011 environment using the SBS 2011 connect computer wizard

This update rollup contains all the updates that were included in the previous update rollup. Additionally, this update fixes the following issues

Issue 1 You receive a warning message when you try to deploy a client computer that is running Windows 8 in Windows Small Business Server 2011 Standard. Note This issue occurs because Windows Small Business Server 2011 Standard does not support client computers that are running Windows 8. However, after you apply this update, you do not receive a warning message.

Issue 2 After you run client deployment tools in Windows Small Business Server 2011 Standard, Windows Store apps do not work on client computers that are running Windows 8

Note The update described in this article adds support for user profile migration

Issue 3 You cannot remotely connect to a Windows 8 client computer from the Remote Web Access webpage

Issue 4 After you install the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5 and then install the .NET Framework 4, you do not receive email notifications

Issue 5 You cannot download a file or a folder whose path contains non-ASCII characters on the Remote Web Access webpage

Issue 6 Assume that the name of a user, group, or organization unit (OU) contains a slash (/). When the user, group, or OU is a member of a group that is traversed during the Remote Web Access logon process, the user, group, or OU cannot log on to the Remote Web Access webpage.

Issue 7 When Windows Small Business Server uses the default configuration, Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) cannot synchronize Best Practices Analyzer (BPA) with Windows Small Business Server.  Additionally, new updates for BPA are displayed only in the optional updates menu.

Note After you install the update that is described in this article, the following changes occur in BPA and WSUS:

• Update rollups for BPA are auto-approved as update rollups for Windows Small Business Server

• The “tools” category is added to WSUS

• The BPA installation is approved and is displayed in the “Updates with Microsoft Software License Terms that are pending approval” group
