This external documentation for pyVmomi was generated using Googly Docs (aka Google Standard Documentation) which renders very cleanly in GitHub. Internal documentation for a class should be done in Sphinx format because tools like pyCharm and Eclipse can use that documentation as a hint for code completion. Note: External docs as Googly Docs, internal docs as Sphinx. Closes bug#15

vim.ServiceInstanceContent
The ServiceContent data object defines properties for the ServiceInstance managed object. The ServiceInstance itself does not have directly-accessible properties because reading the properties of a managed object requires the use of a property collector, and the property collector itself is a property of the ServiceInstance . For this reason, use the method RetrieveServiceContent to retrieve the ServiceContent object.
