TSM for VE GUI Improvements.

1.- Currently when we go to scheduler a backup/restore of VMs we need to expand the datacenter and then expand esx by esx in order to look for the VM. This doesn't like to the customers, especially when they have many ESXs. We need to see all VMs by Datacenter and the possibility to look for a VM.

2.- Schedule backups are not possible to run now. It has not sense in a backup world to have a schedule and not to been able to run now.

3.- When you schedule a backup from GUI you can not see any info in recent tasks pane. It doesn't have sense to scheduler a task and then you can not see this task but it works if you run a backup now task from the same pane.

4.- After a backup/restore complexion you can see only the start time end time, but it would be interesting to have the data like it is showed in the dsmsched.log , VM by VM and then the summary of all VMs. The same for a "run now" backup.
