Managed Entity Get Recent Task
The set of recent tasks operating on this managed entity.
This is a subset of recentTask belong to this entity. A task in this list could be in one of the four states: pending, running, success or error.
This property can be used to deduce intermediate power states for a virtual machine entity. For example, if the current powerState is "poweredOn" and there is a running task performing the "suspend" operation, then the virtual machine's intermediate state might be described as "suspending."
Most tasks (such as power operations) obtain exclusive access to the virtual machine, so it is unusual for this list to contain more than one running task. One exception, however, is the task of cloning a virtual machine. In releases after vSphere API 5.0, vSphere Servers might not generate property collector update notifications for this property. To obtain the latest value of the property, you can use PropertyCollector methods RetrievePropertiesEx or WaitForUpdatesEx. If you use the PropertyCollector.WaitForUpdatesEx method, specify an empty string for the version parameter. Any other version value will not produce any property values as no updates are generated.
The unique identifier for the managed object to which the property attaches; the serialized managed object reference for a request has the form moType/moId, in this case ManagedEntity/{moId}.
The vSphere release schema. The current specification covers vSphere 8.0.3.0 APIs.
