Firmware upgrade using get free space command instead of Free Space Detector over SNMP

NCM runs its own Free Space Detector over SNMP to verify that sufficient space is available to perform the operation.

When a device like ASA 5505 doesn't answer the OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.10.1.1.2.1.7 the tool displays the message "Free space cannot be automatically determined, please verify manually" requiring interaction, which is a pain if you are performing several upgrades.

With the option of bypassing the detection over SNMP using a command such show flash | inc free would make more sense.

I found that same bug in the Beta and was disappointed it was not resolved in the Prod version, or dealt with in any of the patches/hot fixes. Maybe the new version of NCM will address this fault . . .
