can it be defaulted to VmwareHostType.ESXi ?

what does it mean if the host does not have this info? Is it in a valid state then?

I never face this issue before, but I know some users have faced the issue.

If we throw an Exception with message, instead of NPE, I think it does not help, as user will still get an exception.

yes, but at least it will be clear they have an ill-configured host.

to be honest, I do not know what is misconfigured and any other issues caused by the misconfiguration.
I think we could consider the host as an ESXi host if the about info is not found.

anyone uses ESX host or other type of host ?
