GetError() Method
When the job is executing or has terminated without error, then this method returns no CIM_Error
instance. However, if the job has failed because of some internal error, then a CIM_Error instance
is returned. This method is only used to fetch the failure reason for jobs that failed on their own,
i.e., not jobs that are canceled by the user.

• Error: If the OperationalStatus on the Job is not “OK”, then this method returns a CIM
Error instance. Otherwise, when the Job is “OK”, null is returned.

Mapping Error Code to CIM_Error
A CIM_Error object consists of the following properties:
• OwningEntity – the string “SNIA”
• MessageID –DRM26, Resource not available. Consult SMI-S section on “Standard Messages”
for detailed information on the meaning of the DRM messages.
• MessageArguments[] – An array containing the dynamic content of the message. There is only
one element, “Operation has failed”.
• Message – The formatted message. In the case of DRM26, MessageArguments and Message
are the same, “Operation has failed”.
• PerceivedSeverity – describes the severity of the error from the notifier's point of view. This
value is Low (2).
• ProbableCause - describes the probable cause of the error. This value is
“Configuration/Customization Error” (8).
• CIMStatusCode - The CIM status code that characterizes this instance. This value is
ERR_ACCESS_DENIED (2).
• CIMStatusCodeDescription – “CIM_ERR_ACCESS_DENIED”
