5.10.6.2.2 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.
