Context
I would like query WMI interface to get logical disks spaces from differents windows clients.
But WMI is** not natively** supported in Linux, so Samba & Zenoss Team worked hard to build a WMI client !
Following parts were tested on a** GNU/Linux Red Hat el6 x86_64**.
Installation

Example: wmic -U [domain/]adminuser%password //host “select * from Win32_ComputerSystem”In my case to get logical disks spaces, i used:
BASH
wmic -U [domain/]adminuser%password //host “select VolumeName,FreeSpace from Win32_LogicalDisk”Congrats you are done !
