Description
SUMMARY
Once with_tags: true is used, inventory plugin can't connect to ESXi API since it does not use proxy specified in proxy_host:proxy_port.
Looks like it creates requests.Session object and does not set proxy:
Could be something like
if self.proxy_host:
proxies = {
'http': f'http://{self.proxy_host}:{self.proxy_port}',
'https': f'http://{self.proxy_host}:{self.proxy_port}',
}
