Marking the OVA as "Managed By" causes warnings when interacting with it via VC

[zjs]

Because the OVA is marked as being "Managed By" the H5 client, warnings are shown when interacting with it via both the H5 Client and the Flex client:

You should not modify the virtual machine directly. Use the management console of the solution to make changes.

These messages are misleading because users should modify the virtual machine directly because there isn't a management console for the fake "solution" we've marked them as being managed by.

@stuclem: I think we should have some sort of release note for this instructing customers to ignore these warnings on the OVA.

[stuclem]

OK, thanks @zjs. Is this issue ever likely to be fixed, or is it a permanent feature?

[zjs]

I think that's still TBD. I'd like to fix this, but am not sure how hard it will be (and therefore unsure how likely we are to get to it in the future).

[stuclem]

OK, will leave as a release note for the time being.

Attempted release note:

• vSphere Client shows warnings when you attempt legitimate operations on the appliance VM. #1184
  If you attempt to perform operations on the appliance VM, for example migrate it, move it to a new folder, or restart it, you see a warning that the the VM is managed by Solution vSphere Integrated Containers-H5Client.

  Workaround: Ignore the warnings and click Yes to proceed with the operation.

@zjs is this OK?

[stuclem]

Thanks @zjs. Removing kind/note.

There was a reason the OVA was marked as managed by - I don't recall precisely what that was. It may have been to allow the UI plugin to discover the OVA due to not having access to the tag API.
Noted here because simply removing the managedBy reference may not be viable as an isolated piece of work.
