        Configuration
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        Edit the */usr/local/etc/alignak/arbiter/packs/wmi/resources.cfg* file and configure the domain name, user name and password allowed to access remotely to the monitored hosts WMI.
        ::
           #-- Active Directory for WMI
           # Replace MYDOMAIN with your domain name or . for local user account
           $DOMAIN$=MYDOMAIN
           # Replace MYUSER with the WMI authorized user (domain or local user account)
           $DOMAINUSERSHORT$=MYUSER
           $DOMAINUSER$=$DOMAIN$\\$DOMAINUSERSHORT$
           # Replace MYPASSWORD with the WMI authorized user password
           $DOMAINPASSWORD$=MYPASSWORD
        
        Prepare Windows host
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        Some operations are necessary on the Windows monitored hosts if WMI remote access is not yet activated.
        
        Create a user account:
        
        - username/password (example): alignak/alignak
        - member of following groups: Administrators, Remote DCOM users
        - Deactivate interactive login permissions (more secure)
        
        Check that WMI and RPC services are started
        
        The Windows Firewall must allow inbound trafic for:
           - Windows Firewall Remote Management (RPC)
           - Windows Management Instrumentation (DCOM-In)
           - Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI-In)
        
        This page contains more information about remote WMI configuration: https://kb.op5.com/display/HOWTOs/Agentless+Monitoring+of+Windows+using+WMI
        
        Test remote WMI access with the plugins files:
        ::
           # Basic wmic command ...
           $ /usr/local/var/libexec/alignak/wmic -U .\\alignak%alignak //192.168.0.20 'Select Caption From Win32_OperatingSystem'
        
           # Alignak plugin command ...
           $ /usr/local/var/libexe/alignak/check_wmi_plus.pl -H 192.168.0.20 -u ".\\alignak" -p "alignak" -m checkdrivesize -a '.'  -w 90 -c 95 -o 0 -3 1  --inidir=/usr/local/var/libexec/alignak
        
        
        Alignak configuration
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        You simply have to tag the concerned hosts with the template `windows-nsca-host`.
        ::
        
            define host{
                use                     windows-nsca-host
                host_name               windows_nsca_host
                address                 0.0.0.0
