Query Parameters
array of
StoragePoliciesComplianceVMStatus

Required
Compliance Status that a virtual machine must have to match the filter. Atleast one status must be specified.
array of
string
vms
Optional
Identifiers of virtual machines that can match the filter If unset or empty, virtual machines with any identifier matches the filter When clients pass a value of this structure as a parameter, the field must contain identifiers for the resource type: VirtualMachine. When operations return a value of this structure as a result, the field will contain identifiers for the resource type: VirtualMachine.

disks
Required
The {@Status} enumerated type defines he valid compliance status values for a virtual machine or virtual disk.
COMPLIANT : The virtual machine or virtual disk is in compliance.
NON_COMPLIANT : The virtual machine or virtual disk is in not in compliance.
UNKNOWN_COMPLIANCE : Compliance status of the virtual machine or virtual disk is not known.
NOT_APPLICABLE : Compliance computation is not applicable for this virtual machine or disk because it does not have any storage requirement that apply to the object-based datastore on which the entity is placed.
OUT_OF_DATE : Compliance status becomes out of date when the profile associated with the virtual machine or disk is edited and not applied. The compliance status will remain out of date until the latest policy is applied.
Possible values are: COMPLIANT , NON_COMPLIANT , UNKNOWN_COMPLIANCE , NOT_APPLICABLE , OUT_OF_DATE
vm_home
Optional
The {@Status} enumerated type defines he valid compliance status values for a virtual machine or virtual disk.

NOT_APPLICABLE : Compliance computation is not applicable for this virtual machine or disk because it does not have any storage requirement that apply to the object-based datastore on which the entity is placed.
