```
public interface IHostResource
```
A resource that resides on a host.
The state of this resource is a snapshot of this resource from the time it was retrieved from the host. In order to retrieve the current state of this resource, it will need to be re-retrieved from the host.

Note: Subclasses may provide methods that retrieve data related to this resource at the time those methods are called. Such methods will be named with a prefix of "fetch" or "find" instead of "get", and the data retrieved from those methods will represent the state of that data from the time those methods are called, instead of the time that this resource was retrieved.
