check_vmware_api slow

I found this api was timing out.
My College Rod Zadeh fixed it for us.
/dev/random was not returning results on my VM.
Fix:
”
In a nutshell not enough entropy to create a client hash for an outbound SSL connection to the VMWare server. The Net::SSL library accesses /dev/random to get a random number to generate the hash. It should probably use /dev/urandom as this is running on a VM. To fix this I did:

yum install rng-tools
systemctl enable rngd.service
systemctl start rngd.service
