Managed Object Types Overview

Strictly speaking, managed objects are objects that are cataloged. Managed objects might consist exclusively of data objects, but basic data types might be among their properties. Managed objects are used to represent and administer entities in your environment.

Managed objects are often used as parameters that are passed to or returned by methods. In those cases, a reference to the actual managed object is being passed back and forth. For the sake of simplicity, this document always refers to managed objects rather than managed object references. The objects themselves are never passed or returned.
