How to enable WMI Provider MSCluster on MS Server 2008 R2

  • 772

I have successfully set up a failover cluster on Microsoft Server 2008 R2 Enterprise Edition. Now I want to talk to the MSCluster WMI Provider on said server. WMI Queries to e.g. CIMV2 successed. But queries like

select * from MSCluster_ResourceGroup where MSCluster_ResourceGroup.Name=\"testserver\"

fail with "Access denied". I am using a domain admin account.

Do I have to enable the MSCluster WMI Provider? What am I missing?

    Did you see this blog article? Seems very similar to your issue.

    The mscluster namespace requires encryption, so to connect to it you need to have a PacketPrivacy authentication level on your query.
