Distributed Virtual Switch Manager Query Dvs Check Compatibility
This operation returns a list of compatibility results.
Each compatibility result is an object that has a host property and optionally a fault which would be populated only if that host is not compatible with a given dvsProductSpec. All filters in hostFilerSpecs are ANDed to derive the intersection of hosts against which compatibility is checked. If caller did not have view privileges on the host entity in an element of the CompatibilityResult array, then that entire element would be removed from the CompatibilityResult array. Typical uses:
- For the createDVS situation, hostFilterSpec is of type HostDvsFilterSpec and DvsProductSpec will have newSwitchProductSpec set.
- For the Add-Host-To-DVS situation, you can use either HostDvsFilterSpec or HostDvsMembershipFilter with inclusive being false, and pass the DVS in DvsProductSpec.
- For the Upgrade-DVS situation, you can use either HostDvsFilterSpec or HostDvsMembershipFilter with inclusive being true, and pass the new desired ProductSpec for DVS in newSwitchProductSpec.

"QueryDvsCheckCompatibilityRequestType Object"The container of hosts on which we check the compatibility. This container can be a datacenter, folder, or computeResource. We can also include all the hosts in the hierarchy with container as root of the tree.
The productSpec of a DistributedVirtualSwitch. If not set, it is assumed to be the default one used for DistributedVirtualSwitch creation for current version.
The hosts against which to check compatibility. This is a filterSpec and users can use this to specify all hosts in a container (datacenter, folder, or computeResource), an array of hosts, or hosts that might or might not be a DVS member.
