Fixed issues in Splunk App for VMWare 3.1.4

Publication Date Defect number Description
2015-3-13 TAG-8961

License status check requires a user to refresh after several hours to maintain a valid license. The problem results from a missing ModularInput scheme in inputs.conf.spec.
Workaround
Add the following contents in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/splunk_for_vmware/README/inputs.conf.spec

[vmware_licensecheck://<name>]
log_level = <value>
* log level of modular inputs from "DEBUG", "INFO", "WARN","WARNING", "ERROR"
2015-3-13 TAG-8924

The VMware license has a floating point value. This license value should be an integer. When the License check validation fails, VMware views fail to display and are routed to a License view page.
