3.1.4.3.2.22 CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_TYPE_NETNAME_VALIDATE_NETNAME

The CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_TYPE_NETNAME_VALIDATE_NETNAME resource type control code confirms that the specified computer name is valid as an alternate communication endpoint on the cluster's network.

ClusAPI Protocol version 2.0 servers fail this method using error code 0x00000001 (ERROR_INVALID_FUNCTION).

The client MUST provide a DNS label or NetBIOS computer name, as a null-terminated Unicode string, in the buffer that is designated by lpInBuffer.

After successful completion of the method, the server SHOULD NOT write any data to the buffer that is designated by lpOutBuffer.

The server SHOULD accept a CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_TYPE_NETNAME_VALIDATE_NETNAME resource type control code request if its protocol server state is read-only, and the server MUST accept the request for processing if it is in the read/write state, as specified in section 3.1.1.
