Example: Read a vCloud Automation Center Entity by System Query
This example script performs the following actions:
1 Defines the model name and the entity set name.
2 Defines the system queries by which the entities are filtered and selects the top ten results of all virtual
machines, filtered by the machine state and component flag.
3 Reads a list of entities.
