ESX Host Discovery - System.Sysname Property

I want system.sysname populated by passing esx.user and esx.pass.  Today that property is only passed if SNMP is configured on the host but it must be available by querying esx with the passed credentials.

  • Has this been considered?  

    It would be 1000% helpful in our CMDB efforts if every resource had a consistent method to set system.sysname independent of the communication method to the resource(ESX, API, SNMP, WMI) etc.
