DGE Configuration for Proxy WMI Server

If you have any UNIX DGEs which need to use the WMI Query Server on a Windows machine as a proxy, edit the following parameters in <TRAVERSE_HOME>/etc/dge.xml:

<wmiQueryServer>
<host name="my_host_1" address="1.1.1.1" port="7667" username="wmiuser" password="fixme" />
</wmiQueryServer>

Restart the DGE so that the changes can take effect.

dge.xml Parameters

The parameters in the dge.xml file are as follows.

Parameter	Description
`host name`	A unique, descriptive name for the WMI Query Server host that this DGE uses for WMI monitoring (e.g., Denver_WMI_QueryHost).
`address`	The IP address of the WMI Query Server host, in dotted quad notation. If the DGE is running on Windows, this will be set to 127.0.0.1
`port`	The TCP port on the WMI Query Server to which the DGE connects. This must match the `port` parameter in the `nvwmiqd.ini` file on the WMI Query Server.
`username`	The username that the DGE uses to log in to the WMI Query Server. This must match the `username` parameter in the `nvwmiqd.ini` file on the WMI Query Server.
`password`	The password that the DGE uses to log in to the WMI Query Server. This must match the `password` parameter in the `nvwmiqd.ini` file on the WMI Query Server.

You can have up to 4 DGEs using a single WMI Query Server as a proxy.
