The international version of Azure's classmates have seen a display of the main information in the machine wallpaper, and this wallpaper is through a Sysinternals called BGInfo to achieve, the benefits of this software is for bulk Management Master (virtual) machine administrators and users are very practical, Have seen a lot of implementers on the desktop to store the deployment information to mark this host information.

Figure 1 International version of Azure below the information wallpaper, is not very convenient?

Intranet IP, extranet IP, deployment ID in the international edition This information is written to the registry by an agent of Azure and then called and displayed by BGInfo, and for ordinary users who do not have a dedicated agent software, Or a Windows on a physical machine to develop a separate access to information seems unrealistic, so the problem is, the system comes with this information to where? How can it be extracted by bginfo recognition?

Most of our system information can be queried through WMI (Windows management technology), and WMI's query methods and SQL statements are very close, his statement is called WQL, using the graphical Simplewmiview tool can be easily browsed, You can use this tool to preview the WMI class where the information you need is located, and then where you want to filter the conditions.
