I want to query lots of HP servers to determine their overall health. I don't want to use any packages, or even SNMP – I want to query the server health from WMI and understand if a box is Green/Amber/Red – just like the HP Management Home Page.
This MUST be possible – but I can't find any documentation…
Oh yes, and the servers are running Windows Server 2003/8.
Help!!

I was having a hell of a time getting HP to give me a WMI namespace for any of my Proliant machines. I followed tons of dead ends and finally ended up here!
Installing the HP Insight Management WBEM Providers will automatically give a HPQ WMI namespace with all information within! Use WMI Explorer to see whats in there. Done!
