CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_TYPE_GET_RO_PRIVATE_PROPERTIES

The CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_TYPE_GET_RO_PRIVATE_PROPERTIES control code is used to request the read-only private properties for a resource type.

Quick Info

Notes to Callers

When you call ClusterResourceTypeControl with the CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_TYPE_GET_RO_PRIVATE_PROPERTIES control code, it returns a property list with the names and values of the properties that apply only to the specific resource type and cannot be modified using the CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_TYPE_SET_PRIVATE_PROPERTIES control code. Private properties can include:

• Dynamic values generated as needed.
• Static values stored in the cluster database.
• Static values not stored in the cluster database.

To parse the property list returned by ClusterResourceTypeControl, use the property list utility functions.

Notes to Resource DLL Writers

Resource DLLs must always support the CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_TYPE_GET_RO_PRIVATE_PROPERTIES control code in their ResourceTypeControl entry point function. The output should be a property list that includes the names and data values for all of the read-only properties specific to their resource type, if there are any. It is important to remember to terminate the list with a final entry that contains only the CLUSPROP_SYNTAX_ENDMARK value.

The Resource Monitor does not provide any default handling of this control code.
