In VM view, show vcenter server where the machine entry is coming from

[yoogie27]

Expected Behavior

In our environment, we have 8 different vcenter servers due to different HCI implementations and requirements. We have all VMs imported in Icinga2 and have linked their VM object (from vspheredb) in the host asset. So one click from an alert brings you to the corresponding entry in the vspheredb module.
Right now, the VM entry only shows the host and the vcenter path where it is running on. It would be fantastic if it would also link the vcenter server where it was scanned from. If possible in a link that directly opens the (https) url to it. So one click brings you to the management interface.

Current Behavior

Only the host and the vcenter path are shown.

Possible Solution

Add a link below the host entry to show something like this:
<vcenter_name>

A link to to the MOB is already there, a VMRC link has been implemented in #141. I'd love to also link to the HTML5 UI, do you have an idea of how such links would look like?

Figured it out:

https://host/ui/#?extensionId=vsphere.core.vm.summary&objectId=urn:vmomi:ObjectClass:ManagedObjectReference:serverGuid&navigator=vsphere.core.viTree.hostsAndClustersView

Example: https://vcenter.example.com/ui/#?extensionId=vsphere.core.vm.monitor&objectId=urn:vmomi:VirtualMachine:vm-12345:EA70A975-CD34-12AB-12BC-AB18AF45CEB7&navigator=vsphere.core.viTree.hostsAndClustersView

Note: my last comment referred a link to the HTML5 frontend. This request is about linking the vCenter itself. HTML5 UI link will follow.
