The ManagedObjectReference data object type is a special-purpose data object. Commonly referred to as simply a "reference", "MoRef", "MOR", or other variations of this theme, instances of managed object references contain data that identifies specific server-side managed objects. Managed object references are typically one of the return types from a method invocation.

Managed object references are client application references to server-side managed objects. The client application uses ManagedObjectReference objects when it invokes operations on a server. A ManagedObjectReference is guaranteed to be unique and persistent during an object's lifetime. The reference persists after an object has moved within the inventory, across sessions, and across server restarts. If you remove an object, for example, a virtual machine, from the inventory, and then put it back, the reference changes.
