Distributed File System Structures

  • Article

The following are the Distributed File System (DFS) structures:

In this section

DFS_GET_PKT_ENTRY_STATE_ARG

Input buffer used with the FSCTL_DFS_GET_PKT_ENTRY_STATE control code

DFS_INFO_1

Contains the name of a Distributed File System (DFS) root or link.

DFS_INFO_2

Contains information about a Distributed File System (DFS) root or link. This structure contains the name, status, and number of DFS targets for the root or link.

DFS_INFO_3

Contains information about a Distributed File System (DFS) root or link. This structure contains the name, status, number of DFS targets, and information about each target of the root or link.

DFS_INFO_4

Contains information about a Distributed File System (DFS) root or link. This structure contains the name, status, GUID, time-out, number of targets, and information about each target of the root or link.

DFS_INFO_5

Contains information about a Distributed File System (DFS) root or link. This structure contains the name, status, GUID, time-out, namespace/root/link properties, metadata size, and number of targets for the root or link.

DFS_INFO_6

Contains information about a Distributed File System (DFS) root or link. This structure contains the name, status, GUID, time-out, namespace/root/link properties, metadata size, number of targets, and information about each target of the root or link.

DFS_INFO_7

Contains information about a DFS namespace. This structure contains the version GUID for the metadata for the namespace.

DFS_INFO_8

Contains the name, status, GUID, time-out, property flags, metadata size, DFS target information, and link reparse point security descriptor for a root or link.

DFS_INFO_9

Contains the name, status, GUID, time-out, property flags, metadata size, DFS target information, link reparse point security descriptor, and a list of DFS targets for a root or link.

DFS_INFO_50

Contains the DFS metadata version and capabilities of an existing DFS namespace.

DFS_INFO_100

Contains a comment associated with a Distributed File System (DFS) root or link.

DFS_INFO_101

Describes the state of storage on a DFS root, link, root target, or link target.

DFS_INFO_102

Contains a time-out value to associate with a Distributed File System (DFS) root or a link in a named DFS root.

DFS_INFO_103

Contains properties that set specific behaviors for a DFS root or link.

DFS_INFO_104

Contains the priority of a DFS root target or link target.

DFS_INFO_105

Contains information about a DFS root or link, including comment, state, time-out, and DFS behaviors specified by property flags.

DFS_INFO_106

Contains the storage state and priority for a DFS root target or link target. This structure is only for use with the NetDfsSetInfo function.

DFS_INFO_107

Contains information about a DFS root or link, including the comment, state, time-out, property flags, and link reparse point security descriptor.

DFS_INFO_150

Contains the security descriptor for a DFS link's reparse point.

DFS_INFO_200

Contains the name of a domain-based Distributed File System (DFS) namespace.

DFS_INFO_300

Contains the name and type (domain-based or stand-alone) of a DFS namespace.

DFS_STORAGE_INFO

Contains information about a DFS root or link target in a DFS namespace or from the cache maintained by the DFS client.

DFS_STORAGE_INFO_1

Contains information about a DFS target, including the DFS target server name and share name as well as the target's state and priority.

DFS_SUPPORTED_NAMESPACE_VERSION_INFO

Contains version information for a DFS namespace.

DFS_TARGET_PRIORITY

Contains the priority class and rank of a specific DFS target.
