I'm trying to build a Soap request in ruby and is unable to retrieve performance information from the vCenter server.

Below is the request I'm using. Can someone please tell me where I'm going wrong?

<env:Body>
<n2:QueryPerfComposite xmlns:n2="urn:vim25">
<n2:_this type="PerformanceManager">PerfMgr</n2:_this>
<n2:querySpec xsi:type="n2:PerfQuerySpec">
<n2:entity>vm-585</n2:entity>
</n2:querySpec>
</n2:QueryPerfComposite>
</env:Body>

= Response

HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error

The 500 Internal Server Error is a "server-side" error, meaning the problem is not with the SOAP request but instead is a problem with the server.

Try restarting your ESX server which is being managed through vCenter or it's network services.

I also wanted to check if you were able to see the performance stats through VI Client or not.
