I'm trying to use the CheckVmConfig_Task in the vSphere Management SDK to check if a VirtualMachineConfigSpec is valid before attempting to create a VM. I'm calling the code with
vimPort.checkVmConfigTask(serviceContent.getVmCompatibilityChecker(),
null, null, primaryHostSystem, primaryResourcePool, null);
and I am getting the below error, which complains that it "Got <host> tag when expecting <_this> tag". However, the <_this> tag should be a VmCompatibilityChecker https://developer.vmware.com/apis/358/vsphere/doc/vim.vm.check.CompatibilityChecker.html#checkVmConf... and this is what I am passing in. Does anyone know what might be wrong? :
