Hello,

I'm trying to report the VMware guests to hosts relationship using the JSON API.  I can query a VMware host in zenoss using getComponentTree which returns the components for the VMware host, however whenever I issue a getComponents query on the same VMware host it fails.  Should I be able to get a list of all the components of a VMware host?

Thanks.

getComponents returns --
$VAR1 = {
          'success' => bless( do{\(my $o = 0)}, 'JSON::PP::Boolean' ),
          'msg' => 'AttributeError: info',
          'type' => 'exception'
        };

getComponentTree returns --
$VAR1 = [
          {
            'iconCls' => 'tree-severity-icon-small-clear',
            'text' => {
                        'count' => 9,
                        'text' => 'VMwareGuest',
                        'description' => 'components'
                      },
            'path' => 'Components/VMwareGuest',
            'id' => 'VMwareGuest',
            'leaf' => bless( do{\(my $o = 1)}, 'JSON::PP::Boolean' )
          },
          {
            'iconCls' => 'tree-severity-icon-small-clear',
            'text' => {
                        'count' => 46,
                        'text' => 'VMwareLun',
                        'description' => 'components'
                      },
            'path' => 'Components/VMwareLun',
            'id' => 'VMwareLun',
            'leaf' => $VAR1->[0]{'leaf'}
          },
          {
