GetSCSIAddress function

Retrieves the SCSI address of the virtual hard disk (VHD) mounted using the MountVHD function.

Syntax

ULONG WINAPI GetSCSIAddress(
  _In_  PWCHAR VHDFileName,
  _In_  ULONG  Flags,
  _In_  ULONG  SCSIAddressLength,
  _Out_ PWCHAR SCSIAddress
);

Parameters

VHDFileName [in]

A pointer to a null-terminated Unicode string that specifies the path to the VHD file used in the call to MountVHD.

Flags [in]

This parameter is reserved. Use VHD_NORMAL (0).

SCSIAddressLength [in]

The size, in WCHARs, of the buffer pointed to by the SCSIAddress parameter.

SCSIAddress [out]

The address of a buffer to receive the SCSI address of the specified mounted VHD. The buffer must be at least MAX_PATH+1 WCHARs in size.

Return value

On successful call, the return value is ERROR_SUCCESS (0). Any of the system error codes can be returned. Common return values include the following.

Return code/value Description
ERROR_INVALID_DATA
13 (0xD)
A value other than VHD_NORMAL (0) was passed in the Flags parameter, the SCSIAddressLength parameter was zero, or the SCSIAddress parameter was NULL.
ERROR_DEV_NOT_EXIST
55 (0x37)
An error occurred while retrieving the SCSI address of the mounted disk.
ERROR_NOT_READY
21 (0x15)
The device is not yet ready. It takes some time for a newly mounted disk to appear in disk manager. Typically this error is handled by waiting for a short time and trying again.
