Get the methods of a CIM class.
Get-CimClassMethod [-ClassName] <String> [-Method <String>] [-Namespace <String>] [-CimSession <CimSession>] [<CommonParameters>]This command is an alternative to Get-CimClass to make it easier to get information about methods of a WMI/CIM class. The default behavior is to query classes on the local host, but you can query a remote computer using the CimSession parameter. You can specify a computer name, or an existing CIMSession if you need alternate credentials.
