Enumerating Cluster Objects

Enumeration is the process of listing all objects of a given type that are contained by, or that relate to, another object. For example, typical enumeration routines list all of the resources in a group, all of the dependencies of a resource, or all of the nodes in a cluster. Enumeration allows you to search for objects with specific attributes or create and display object inventories.

The following table lists the kinds of information available through enumeration and the API element(s) used to perform the enumeration.

Objects to enumerate Function
dependencies of a resource
ClusterResourceEnum
dependents of a resource
ClusterResourceEnum
groups in the cluster
ClusterEnum
network interfaces available to a network
ClusterNetworkEnum
network interfaces in a node
ClusterNodeEnum
networks in the cluster
ClusterEnum
nodes in a cluster
ClusterEnum
possible owner nodes of a resource
ClusterResourceEnum
possible owner nodes of a resource type
ClusterResourceTypeEnum
preferred owner nodes of a group
ClusterGroupEnum
resource types in a cluster
ClusterEnum
resources in a group
ClusterGroupEnum
resources in a cluster
ClusterEnum
network interfaces in a cluster
ClusterEnum

The following generalized procedure applies to the enumeration functions of any object. Substitute the name of the object (that is, node, network, group, or resource) for Object.

To enumerate objects associated with Object

  1. Allocate an output buffer to receive the names of the objects to be enumerated. Note that the size of the buffer, passed as an input parameter, must be expressed as a count of characters and not a count of bytes.

  2. Open an enumeration handle by calling ClusterObjectOpenEnum, specifying the objects to be enumerated in the dwType parameter.

  3. Execute a loop, performing the following steps with each iteration:

    1. Call ClusterObjectEnum to retrieve the name of the next object into the lpszName output buffer.
    2. If ClusterObjectEnum returns ERROR_MORE_DATA, reallocate the output buffer based on the count of characters returned in the lpcchName parameter. Note that the terminating NULL is not included in the count.
    3. If ClusterObjectEnum returns ERROR_NO_MORE_ITEMS, terminate the loop.
    4. Use the lpszName parameter according to the needs of the application. For example, lpszName could be used to open a handle to the object, which could then be used to retrieve the object's properties.
    5. Increment the dwIndex parameter.
  4. Close the enumeration handle by calling ClusterObjectCloseEnum.

  5. Deallocate the output buffer.

Example Code

The following example enumerates the resources in a group and returns the results in a value list. This example calls other example functions presented elsewhere in this documentation. To locate these example functions, see the Index of Examples. Among these example functions is ClusDocEx_ListEntrySize, which is defined in ClusDocEx.h.
