An internal error occurred when running the DCIM_View class
Description: When DCIM_View class is enumerated with any WSMAN client through the iSM's WMI Info feature on
yx5x PowerEdge servers and iDRAC firmware 4.00.00.00 or later, the response is partial and fails with the
following error code 5:
The specified class does not exist in the given namespace
Cause: The failure is because the DCIM_VFlashView class is deprecated starting with the iDRAC firmware
version 4.00.00.00.
Workaround: Enumerate the explicit classes such as DCIM_CPUView, DCIM_FANView, and so on.
