Fingerprint CLI Namespace
If vSphere APIs begin with /rest, maps are consumed and emitted as lists of objects containing a key:value pair.
Returns the aggregate fingerprint of all the namespace metadata from all the metadata sources. The fingerprint provides clients an efficient way to check if the metadata for namespaces has been modified on the server.
