To see the list of calls for a particular alias, type
WMIC Alias Call /? and press Enter. The methods normally include input and output arguments.
The help listing tells you about each of these arguments, but you don??™t necessarily need
to use all of them. For example, the example call only uses the Name argument, but it also
includes the UserName and Password arguments when you work on a remote system. To use an
argument, provide its name, followed by an equals sign, followed by the value of that argument
in double quotes as shown in the example.
CREATE Creates a new instance of a particular element. You must provide the arguments
required to create the element. The element also has optional arguments that you don??™t have
to provide. If you don??™t supply enough arguments, then WMIC displays an error message that
normally tells you what arguments are missing.
DELETE Removes an existing element. Make sure you use a Where clause that defines the element
completely. Otherwise, you might delete something you really wanted to keep.
GET Obtains all of the details for a particular alias. However, the true power of this action is
retrieving individual property values.
