I've used Win32::OLE and Win32::OLE::Enum to grab WMI information. As for enumerating your output, what are you trying to accomplish? I'd tackle this differently based on if you were printing a tree menu of the data, or simply reporting on it.
Either way I've included a basic example of grabbing a CPU value from WMI. This script contains more source the necessary, to assist with learning.
#!perl
#Change These Variables (Leave all variables BLANK if connecting to lo
+cahost)#
$server="";
$remote_user="";
$remote_pass="";
use Win32::OLE qw(in with);
use Win32::OLE::Enum;
Win32::OLE->Option(Warn => 0);
##WMI Connect##
$WMI = Win32::OLE->new('WbemScripting.SWbemLocator');
if(!$WMI){
print Win32::OLE->LastError();
exit;
}
$Services = $WMI->ConnectServer($server, "root/cimv2", $remote_user, $
+remote_pass);
if(!$Services){
$err_tmp_raw=Win32::OLE->LastError();
$err_tmp=Win32::OLE->LastError();
$err_tmp=~s/\'/\\'/g;
$err_tmp=~s/\"/\\"/g;
$err_tmp='Access Denied' if($err_tmp=~m/denied/i);
$err_tmp='WMI Not Installed' if($err_tmp=~m/class not registered/i
+);
$err_tmp='RPC Server Unavailable' if($err_tmp=~m/rpc server is una
+vailable/i);
print "$err_tmp\n";
print Win32::OLE->LastError();
exit;
}
my $Processor_set = $Services->InstancesOf("Win32_Processor");
foreach my $object (Win32::OLE::Enum->All($Processor_set)){
print "CPU: $object->{'caption'}\n";
print "CPU Utilization: $object->{'LoadPercentage'}\n";
}
Hope this helps.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
