Extension 2.0 WMI example

Hello,

In the documentation you can find above example. It shows only the first few lines

The Dimensions, key and value why are they here? Why? Is this a mistake? (-;

Hi Henk,

I think that was maybe inteded as "column:Name" instead of just "Name".

It's at the group level, so it indicates that every metric collected will be split by this dimension, and every query does include the "Name" as a column, so this would be my rationale for thinking it's a typo.

Would be nice if the documentation was a bit more extensive. I am also wondering if you can use pretty much all WMI classes as long as the classes are available by the user which executes the plugin.
