MOUNTMGR_TARGET_NAME structure (mountmgr.h)

  • Article

The MOUNTMGR_TARGET_NAME structure contains the nonpersistent target device name for a device and is used by mount manager clients with the IOCTL_MOUNTMGR_KEEP_LINKS_WHEN_OFFLINE request to tell the mount manager to keep the symbolic link for a device active even after the device has gone offline.

Syntax

typedef struct _MOUNTMGR_TARGET_NAME {
  USHORT DeviceNameLength;
  WCHAR  DeviceName[1];
} MOUNTMGR_TARGET_NAME, *PMOUNTMGR_TARGET_NAME;

Members

DeviceNameLength

Contains the length, in bytes, of the device name stored in DeviceName.

DeviceName[1]

Contains the nonpersistent target device name.

Remarks

Nonpersistent target names must contain the full path of a target object name in the system object tree. For example: "\Device\HarddiskVolume1". For a discussion of the different between symbolic links, unique IDs, and nonpersistent device names, see Supporting Mount Manager Requests in a Storage Class Driver.
