I written a WMI query that attempts to obtain physical memory capacity via WMI
call. Works as expected on live PCs but returns strange results on a guest OS
hosted by Virtual PC 2007. Anyone else run into this?
Ideas how to solve?
Sample code:
--
use strict;
use warnings;
use Win32::OLE qw(in);
my( $objWMI ) = Win32::OLE->GetObject('winmgmts:\\\\.\\root\\cimv2');
my( $colItems ) = $objWMI->ExecQuery( 'Select * from Win32_PhysicalMemory' );
foreach my $objItem (in $colItems) {
$totalMem += $objItem->{Capacity} / ( 1024 * 1024 );
}
print $totalMem, "\n";
--
Produces output of 64 (MB), when the memory allocated to the guest on the
settings dialog is 1.5G. On the guest, when I right-click on the Computer icon
on the desktop then select properties shows the correct/expected amount of
memory allocated.
Suggestions? Is there a different branch to query instead of \root\cimv2?
