Error:
Computer XXXXXX does not exist on the network, or the computer cannot be configured remotely. Verify that the remote computer has the required Windows Management Instrumentation components and then try again.

SQL 2005 SP1+hotfix 9.00.2153. 64bit. WIN2003. CLUSTERED.

I have alredy tried this:
How to: Configure WMI to Show Server Status in SQL Server Tools
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms188690.aspx

Still getting the same error.

Since this is a cluster, you need to use the virtual server name rather than the node name. Open up the tool, then click on the change computer button.

And what was the result? Could you tell us what the node names are what the virtual names are?

Had to execute it twice. It appears to be a timeout not a WMI error.
