WCF error from "System.ServiceModel.Administration.WbemProvider" in event log

we run a WCF service hosted in IIS7 on Win2k8. We see the following error in the event log.

The WMI provider was not registered. WMI Object: System.ServiceModel.Administration.WbemProvider/65126532 Error:80041003 Process Name: w3wp Process ID: 10144

Which WMI provider has not been registered? What setup procedure was supposed to register it, and failed?

Thanks, Alex

The account under which the service was running had no rights to register the WCF WMI provider. Goto "Computer Management" -> Services and applications. Right-click on the "WMI Control" node and select properties. Adjust rights of the "ServiceModel" namespace via the "Security" tab.
