The Insight Providers collect data from sources such as drivers and system firmware to populate the data model. By using scripting hosts or writing directly to the WMI COM-based client API, you can create custom applications that can access the data model, providing automated administrative tasks. The Insight Providers implement the following instrumentation: • Server providers - Processor information and indications - Memory information and indications - PCI devices and system slots information - Sensor information and indications, including redundancy, fans, temperature sensors, and power supplies 21
