I can't seem to get CreateScheduledTask to work. Here is what I have:
my $service_content = Vim::get_service_content();
my $root = $service_content->rootFolder;
my $vm_view = Vim::find_entity_view(view_type => 'VirtualMachine', begin_entity => $root, filter =>\{'name' => 'TestVM'});
my $vm_moref = $vm_view->summary->vm;
my $action = MethodAction->new(name => "PowerOnVM_Task", argument => \[$vm_moref]);
my $scheduler = OnceTaskScheduler->new(runAt => '2007-07-01T01:00:00');
my $scheduled_task_spec = ScheduledTaskSpec->new(action => $action, description => "test", enabled => "true", name => "test", scheduler => $scheduler);
my $scheduled_task_manager = Vim::get_view (mo_ref => $service_content->scheduledTaskManager);
my $scheduled_task_moref = $scheduled_task_manager->CreateScheduledTask(entity => $vm_moref, spec => $scheduled_task_spec);[/i]
I get the following error:
