Jordan wrote an excellent article that outlined a class he wrote for using SVS's WMI provider.
However his class was written for use on a local machine. I've rewritten all the properties and methods so that they can be run on any machine, local or remote.
You can just pass a "." without quotes for the local machine or a PC name. I've also added a property called getAllNames that returns a collection with all the information on each layer currently on the machine.
Look for a video (coming soon) that outlines how to create your own basic SVS remote admin tool using this class.

Very nice, having the
Very nice, having the remote machine option make this class much more useful. I'm actually surprised I never added this to the original since remoting is one of the key aspects of WMI.

Thanks for doing the legwork. WMI in C# is never fun to figure out.
I've got a nice little windows based tool (w/ source code) that I am about to publish using this revised class and a video that outlines to make it.
I've already created a tool for use by our helpdesk that is web based that uses this revised class. I really wish the Altiris Real-Time had this, but this is a good 2nd option.
