Is it possible to send a event to vROPs via PowerCli?

[MattG]

The vROPS Rest API has a PushEvent method.   Can this method be used to create an event that will show up in an object's Troubleshooting->Events section?   I want to add an event to the object in vROPs when performing a known task against the object.  For example,  an event for when backup begins and ends.   This would make it easier to correlate utilization changes to know events.

I found this article where it discusses using PowerCli to perform vROPS REST API calls:

Could with the REST API. You'd want to script/program to ensure you add the event to the proper Adapter+object so that it tracks against the right object. I personally don't use the PowerCLI for REST calls, but if you can figure it out, go for it.
