Event subtypes define the events that the system generates.
Event Data Object and Sample Subtypes shows only a few of the subtypes that extend the Event data object. For example, TaskEvent inherits all Event properties and includes an info property that is an instance of a TaskInfo object (see Monitoring TaskInfo Properties).
The following event objects are commonly generated by a console-style client application:
com.vmware.vim.VmPoweredOnEvent com.vmware.vim.VmStartingEvent com.vmware.vim.VmReconfiguredEvent com.vmware.vim.VmCreatedEvent com.vmware.vim.VmBeingCreatedEvent
