Platform SDK: Quality of Service

Installing an LPM

For additional LPMs to function on a system, you must install the LPM on the Windows 2000 Server computer on which it will function. Note that the Microsoft-provided LPM, Msidlpm.dll, is installed by default with Windows 2000 Quality of Service.

To install an LPM on a system

  1. Create a registry entry. The key in which the entry must be created is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\RSVP\PCM Config\ActiveLPMs
    1. The entry type is REG_MULTI_SZ
    2. The value of the entry is the name of the LPM DLL
  2. Then, place the DLL into the Windows 2000 System32 directory.
