I am doing some scripting with pyVmomi under 2.6.8 so the code may

As the code is long running, it surpasses the authentication timeout. For
anyone familiar with this code and/or this style of programming, does anyone
have a recommendation for an elegant authentication retry scheme for objects
passed to code that will intermittently access the properties invoking calls.
I'd prefer to not litter try/except blocks around the usage of the objects if
possible.
You could:
- have a single point of entry that can check and, if necessary, revalidate
- create a helper that checks and, if necessary, revalidate, which is then
called where ever needed
- create a decorator that does the above for each function that needs it
