vcenter profile could not be found in the Pillar

[ivanstcoe]

I have defined the following config in the Pillars

   "saltext.vmware": {
        "vcenter": {
            "host": "xxx",
            "password": "xxx",
            "user": "xxx"
        }
    }

When i run the following state file i receive an error

get_esxi_advanced_config_info:
  module.run:
    - name: vmware_esxi.get_advanced_config

Error message:

What is the output of salt-call --local pillar.items?

[ivanstcoe]

(vmw-ext) [root@rhel8-minion-1 states]# salt-call pillar.items

local:

saltext.vmware:
    ----------
    vcenter:
        ----------
        host:
            xxx.corp.local

module was successfully executed providing the vcenter profile as parameter

salt-call vmware_vm.list profile=vcenter

[waynew]

I'm going to close this out and create a new issue to track improving the profile behavior
