How to fix "Online - Data retrieval failure occurred"

Hello.  I am managing a small network with 2 DC controllers.  A few months ago a ransomware hit our network and encrypted all files in Sysvol.  We managed to recreate Group Policies.  Now I have a message from the Server Manager Dashboard belong to 2 nodes and 1 vm server saying that "Online - Data retrieval failure occurred".  How can I fix this problem?

I found under the Event, Application and Services Logs-->Microsoft-->Windows-->ServerManager-MultiMachine-->Operational-->Error generated every 10 minutes.  The error message is "Invoke method error.  Server: localhost, Namesapce: root\microsoft\windows\servermanager, Class: MSFT_ServerManager Tasks, Method: GetServerInventory, Error: Invalid namespace"  Do you know how to fix this?
