With IPHost Network Monitor you can run WMI Availability monitoring of various devices in your network.
To create a WMI monitor for Availability, provide host name (it must be a Windows host) and specify custom WQL query:
The availability and status of the device. For example, the Availability property indicates that the device is running and has full power (value=3), or is in a warning (4), test (5), degraded (10) or power save state (values 13-15 and 17). Regarding the power saving states, these are defined as follows: Value 13 ("Power Save - Unknown") indicates that the device is known to be in a power save mode, but its exact status in this mode is unknown; 14 ("Power Save - Low Power Mode") indicates that the device is in a power save state but still functioning, and may exhibit degraded performance; 15 ("Power Save - Standby") describes that the device is not functioning but could be brought to full power 'quickly'; and value 17 ("Power Save - Warning") indicates that the device is in a warning state, though also in a power save mode.
The Win32_MappedLogicalDisk class represents a network storage devices that are mapped as logical disks on the computer system. The instances returned for this class will be as follows. If user A is enumerating the instances, then the provider will look for a logon session of user A on that machine. If there is one (and only one) such logon session, then the provider will return the mapped drives of that session. If there is more than one session that user A has on the machine, then no mapped drive instances will be returned (since the provider has no reasonable way of deciding which session to use). If there are no sessions of user A running, and there is a locally logged on user B, then the provider will impersonate A and return the mapped drives of user B. This case supports the scenario of helpdesk wanting to see the instances of a locally logged on user. Again, if there is more than one session of user B running on the machine, then the provider has no way of deciding which to use. In this case no mapped drive instances will be returned.
