Not able to get result set when ASSOCIATORS are used in WMI query using perl script

Question

I am not able to get result set when ASSOCIATORS are used in WMI query using perl script. Can someone please help on this?

 $str = "ASSOCIATORS OF {($cs->Path_)->Path} WHERE resultClass = Msvm_KvpExchangeComponent";
 $components = $wmi->ExecQuery($str); #Here I am not able to find $components

Answer 1

i've resolved the above error by changing the code as:

$str = "ASSOCIATORS OF {$cs->{Path_}->{Path}} WHERE resultClass = Msvm_KvpExchangeComponent";
$components = $wmi->ExecQuery($str);

The way to query for KVP data in Server 2012 or 2012 R2 has changed versus how it was in Server 2008, so trying to use the root/virtualization WMI namespace will not work.

That link shows how the WMI has changed, and how you can query to get the right data.
