How can I use a script to determine the number of processors in a machine?

A. You can use a Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) script to easily ascertain the number of processors on a machine. To do so, use these VBScript commands in a script file:

Set oShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")Set oEnv = oShell.Environment("SYSTEM")WScript.Echo oEnv("NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS")
