Add Official Support and Certification for VMware vCenter Server 9.0 and 9.1+ in the TADDM vCenter Sensor

As organizations begin migrating to VMware vCenter Server 9.0 and future 9.1+ releases, IBM TADDM must provide validated and certified support for these versions within the vCenter Sensor.

VMware has introduced substantial API changes in vCenter 9.x that may impact existing integrations relying on legacy API calls. The current TADDM vCenter Sensor was developed and certified against earlier vCenter releases, and it is unclear whether discovery and inventory collection functionality will continue to operate correctly in vCenter 9.x environments.

We request that IBM:

Validate TADDM vCenter Sensor compatibility with VMware vCenter Server 9.0 and subsequent 9.1+ releases.
Identify and remediate any dependencies on deprecated or removed VMware APIs.
Officially certify and document supported vCenter 9.x versions.
Publish any required sensor updates, APARs, or fix packs necessary to maintain discovery functionality.
