To connect to the Configuration Manager client Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) provider, you create a ManagementScope object in the \\Client\root\ccm namespace.

You use the ManagementScope object to read and query WMI objects. For example, How to Read a WMI Object by Using System.Management.

To connect to the Configuration Manager client WMI provider

In Visual Studio, create a new Visual C# Console Project.
Add a reference to the System.Management assembly.
In the C# source code, add a reference to the System.Management namespace with the following code.
using System.Management;
Create a new class and add the following connection example code.

Example

The following C# code example creates and returns a ManagementScope object on the root\ccm namespace.

For information about calling the sample code, see How to Call a WMI Class Method by Using System.Management.

public ManagementScope Connect()
{
    try
    {
        return new ManagementScope(@"root\ccm");
    }
    catch (System.Management.ManagementException e)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Failed to connect", e.Message);
        throw;
    }
}

This example method has the following parameters:

Parameter	Type	Description
Connection	WqlConnectionManager	A valid connection to the SMS Provider.
