Description

The concept of Inventory Path is a powerful concept that deserves it's own sample. Make a sample that shows off how to figure out a managed object's inventory path and how to find things based on their inventory paths.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Contact the pyVmomi community or review existing code to understand how to build an InventoryPath from a managed object and use FindByInventoryPath to locate objects. Create a sample script that demonstrates these operations.
