What is vmwareAlertEntityType?

This value describes the type of entity the alert concerns, such as a virtual machine, host, datastore, or cluster. Admins use it together with vmwareAlertEntityName to understand what kind of object is affected before drilling into details. For example, a value of "VirtualMachine" tells the admin the alert is about a VM rather than a physical host.
