To include a Security parameter in your WMI moniker, you need to include a
security settings component, as in the following line of code:
Set WMIService = GetObject_
("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=_
impersonate,(Security)}!\\" & _
strSrv & "\root\cimv2")The following line of code shows what
a typical moniker looks like:
Set WMIService = GetObject_
("winmgmts:\\" & strSrv & _
"\root\cimv2")
A moniker has three basic parts, beginning with the mandatory prefix, winmgmts.
The moniker then includes a security settings component, which is the section
enclosed in the curly brackets in the first example above. The security settings
component is typically optional, but it’s required when you’re undertaking
privileged activities involving security, debugging, and computer shutdowns.
Note the exclamation point (!) prefix in the first code example; it should precede
the computer name and namespace when you’re specifying a security setting.
The third moniker component is the WMI object path, which refers to the computer
name and the WMI namespace. In the example above, strSrv is a variable that
contains the computer name, and "\root\cimv2" is the namespace. . . .
