DataCollector
State object representing a data collector.
The data collector is an OVA tool that contains the credentials and protocols needed to create a connection between a data collector appliance on a host vCenter and a vCenter-based cloud account.
Filtering is currently possible for some of the data collector fields via $filter.
Supported fields:
services
proxyId
creationTimeMicros
customProperties
Supported operators: eq, ne, lt, gt, and, or.
By default, the obtained list contains the enabled data collectors. A query parameter "disabled=true" can be added to obtain disabled data collectors.
Special case: If the user specifies $filter=((services.item ne 'cloud_assembly_extensibility') and (services.item ne 'cloud_assembly')), which is equivalent to disabled=true, and does not specify the "disabled" parameter, the resulting query will be equivalent to ((disabled=true) and (disabled=false)). This call will return an empty list.
