2.2.3.7 DFS_INFO_7

  • Article

The DFS_INFO_7 structure contains information about a DFS root.

The DFS_INFO_7 structure has the following format.

 typedef struct _DFS_INFO_7 {
   GUID GenerationGuid;
 } DFS_INFO_7;

GenerationGuid: This GUID is modified each time DFS metadata is updated.

This data type is used to detect when the metadata of a DFS namespace has changed. It MUST be supported for domain-based DFS namespaces. It MAY be supported for stand-alone DFS namespaces; a null GUID (all 128-bits are 0) MUST be returned if this is not supported.<6>
