How to monitor Target Operating System for WMI Win32_SoftwareElement ?

With IPHost Network Monitor you can run WMI Target Operating System monitoring of various devices in your network.

To create a WMI monitor for Target Operating System, provide host name (it must be a Windows host) and specify custom WQL query:

SELECT TargetOperatingSystem FROM Win32_SoftwareElement

The TargetOperatingSystem property allows the provider to specify the operating system environment. The value of this property does not ensure binary executable. Two other pieces of information are needed. First, the version of the OS needs to be specified using the OS version check. The second piece of information is the architecture the OS runs on. The combination of these constructs allows the provider to clearly identify the level of OS required for a particular software element.

SoftwareFeatures and SoftwareElements: A 'SoftwareFeature' is a distinct subset of a Product, consisting of one or more 'SoftwareElements'. Each SoftwareElement is defined in a Win32_SoftwareElement instance, and the association between a feature and its SoftwareFeature(s) is defined in the Win32_SoftwareFeatureSoftwareElement Association. Any component can be 'shared' between two or more SoftwareFeatures. If two or more features reference the same component, that component will be selected for installation if any of these features are selected.
