3.1.4.3.3.16 CLUSCTL_GROUP_VALIDATE_PRIVATE_PROPERTIES

The CLUSCTL_GROUP_VALIDATE_PRIVATE_PROPERTIES group control code confirms that the designated property list describing a set of unknown properties (section 3.1.1.9) for the designated group is properly formed.

The unknown properties of a group are the part of the group's non-volatile configuration data that is maintained in the cluster state and whose schema is defined by an entity external to the cluster.

The client MUST provide one or more unknown property names and their associated values, by using the format specified in section 2.2.3.10, 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_GROUP_VALIDATE_PRIVATE_PROPERTIES group 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.
