Error description

• The front end capacity view of Operations center does not show
  capacity for VSS backup nodes.
  
  "q occupancy <node_name>" command on Spectrum Protect server
  shows the occupied capacity but it does not display front end
  capacity view in Operations Center.
  
  The Spectrum protect server is not detecting the front end
  capacity for VSS filespace types backup, so it is not including
  the Front End capacity licensing of them.
