3.2.1.1.1 Method Sequencing Requirements

Some method calls require no prerequisite calls against the server; they simply query for information or pass in parameters that are constructed by the client.

In general, the prerequisite call is to an object enumeration method, which retrieves information about a specific set of storage objects, such as volumes or disks. Information that the object enumeration method returns is then used to supply input parameters for subsequent calls. Calls with such prerequisites are grouped in the next section by storage object type.
