Hi All,
Update
Is there any mandatory property of AlarmSpec that I must supply in vsphere client SDK 6.0+? Looks like the SDK has enforced some validation against null value since 6.0+.
The API document I'm referencing is this: VMware vSphere 6.5 Documentation Library I fulfilled all mandatory fields of an AlarmSpec, please see attachment for details.
Just noticed some changes when I maintain my plugin code for 6.0. In 5.5 or earlier version, when calling AlarmManager.createAlarm() and supplied a AlarmSpec with few properties specified, it went through without exceptions, however when I tested it on a 6.0 sdk, it throws null exceptions , attaching my calling stack for reference:

I'm also attaching a AlarmSpec object instance that I pass to this API call which is working in 5.5 however throws null exception in 6.0:
Thanks in advance.
