Telegraf: inputs-vsphere: The request refers to an unexpected or unknown type

I updated to the nightly build (because of https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/issues/5296) and now I got some strange failed tasks in my vCenter (6.5u1), see screenshots:

This is luckily a benign bug that occurs when we're trying to destroy a resource that doesn't support being destroyed. But it's a bit unsightly in the logs for sure. Will fix immediately.

I can confirm the same error. It appears in my fresh installation, too.

Running the fix in a test lab right now. Will push today so it should be available in the next bug fix release.

I can also confirm the same error. I also noticed that it shows every 5 minutes, the same refresh interval for my Grafana dashboard. Safe to assume its going to appear as long as Grafana is open?

-edit- Even without Grafana open, the error appears every 5 minutes.

This will be fixed un the next maintenance release. Luckily, is doesn't affect functionality or performance.
