Had several systems which had wmi issue in doing client /application installation.This is most common issue which we face if something happens to the system.To get solved,use the script which can be run remotely using psexec tool. http://blogs.technet.com/b/configmgrteam/archive/2009/05/08/wmi-troubleshooting-tips.aspx
Note : The below script tested only on Windows XP ,not tested on higher versions like Windows 7
Download the psexec tool from Microsoft .Here are the basic instruction in doing it.
1.copy the psexec.exe tool on to new folder (G:\script) and create 3 new files(wmifix.bat,computers.txt and run.bat).Each file script has given below.
wmifix:
@echo off
REM WMI Repair

run.bat
@echo off
cd G:\script
G:
psexec @computers.txt -c G:\script\wmifix.bat
computers.txt
Add list of computers to the txt file which you have trouble.
Use the above script to fix wmi issues on computers,if that doesnt repair,remove the bold letters REM and try.this will delete the repository and recreates it for you to work wmi correctly.

Thanks for your swift reponse. This report is for SCCM 2012 environment but we are using 2007 currently. Do you have similar kind of report for SCCM 2007 version.
you will have to install client health status reporting tool to get such information.By default,there is no such info you get from CM07 and only possible things is to get,how many clients active,inactive,obsolete etc.
Do you have any script or sccm report which can tell me which clients are healthy, which are not healthy with the reason and which clients have WMI issues.
We are facing issues on many machines where RAP is blank. Just want to automate things.
have you tried this report ? http://eskonr.com/2014/05/sccm-configmgr-2012-ssrs-dashboard-client-health-summary-report/

Hey koneti,
how can I add a "safe sender" entry via script or is there a
command line I can use to do it? I am looking for something
sprcifically unrelated to the UI entry method, something scriptable
that I can wrap and deploy to remote workstations in my enterprise.

Hi eswar.

Is there any Script for repair the sms agent service?. and one more thing is that when i am trying to ping the machines with ipaddress ,its resolving another machine.
If u have any script for repair sms agent in Sms client,provide me ASAP.

Ismail
Hi Syed,
How do you say issues with SMS agent ? and for Ip address conflits,you have DNS issue .Please do scavenging on DNS server .BEfore that verify if single IP address is assiged to multiple computers (you should see many entries in DNS) as i saw this many times in my environment.
