Hello,
I'm using archlinux and trying to use VMWare Workstation REST API in order to manage my virtual machines.
I encountered difficulties using the power management API - it looks like all my machines are considered off when I use the API (although they are on).
I use vmrest 1.2.1 build-17966106 with VMware Workstation 16.1.2 build-17966106.
The output of `vmrest -d` when I request for machine's power state:
[vmrest] get VM power state request, vmID: C3Q6N31L9CCLTL82I1VJ0DAL9PVL89L6, request ID: dab3605f8864bb02ba062e1189b0ae9f8d23e72b

In addition, changing the power state of a machine does nothing. I believe it is because my machines are considered off.
Thanks.
