ESXi hosts missing from the Fleet Management >> Certificates view when the "Show ESXi Hosts" toggle was enabled in VCF Operations

Issue/Introduction
Missing ESXi hosts lacked active license entitlement/capacity within VCF Operations
Environment
VCF Operations 9.x
Cause
When VCF Operations exceeds its licensed capacity, newly added or unentitled objects are discovered but are filtered out of certain dashboard views and active metric processing.
Resolution
Using the Global Search bar and navigating to Environment > Inventory > vCenter Server > Host System confirmed the hosts were discovered and present in the database. Because they were in the inventory but missing from the specific "Fleet Management" view, the issue was isolated to UI filtering and capacity limits rather than a collection failure.
To resolve the issue: Sync or update the licensing usage in VCF Operations to ensure all discovered hosts are fully entitled.
