How to Configure SQL for Use with the System Interrogate Tool

In order for the Support Tools System Interrogate utility to access and report on an ICM system's SQL database information, it must have access to Microsoft's Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI). WMI is not part of a standard Windows SQL install, and in most cases will therefore need to be installed separately. To Install WMI:

Step 1 Obtain the SQL 2000 Server CD, or download WMI at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/

list/wmi.asp

Step 2 On each ICM system that has SQL installed (and with which you want to use the System Interrogate utility--(for example, loggers, AWs) run setup from the \x86\OTHER\wmi directory.

Note: For additional information on installing and using WMI, see the MSDN library at: http:/

Configuration of sysquery and Trace

The sysquery and trace configuration files also exist on the Support Tools Server. However these files should not be modified. Modifications to these files are not supported. If modifications are deemed necessary by Cisco Systems Inc., then updates will be made available using the patch process.
