IVdsHwProvider::Reenumerate method (vdshwprv.h)

[Beginning with Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012, the Virtual Disk Service COM interface is superseded by the Windows Storage Management API.]

Discovers newly connected and disconnected subsystems.

Syntax

HRESULT Reenumerate();

Return value

This method can return standard HRESULT values, such as E_OUTOFMEMORY, and VDS-specific return values. It can also return converted system error codes using the HRESULT_FROM_WIN32 macro. Errors can originate from VDS itself or from the underlying VDS provider that is being used. Possible return values include the following.

Return code/value Description
VDS_E_PROVIDER_CACHE_CORRUPT
0x8004241FL
This return value signals a software or communication problem inside a provider that caches information about the array. Use the IVdsHwProvider::Reenumerate method followed by the IVdsHwProvider::Refresh method to restore the cache.
VDS_E_OBJECT_STATUS_FAILED
0x80042431L
The provider is in a failed state, and is unable to perform the requested operation.
VDS_E_ANOTHER_CALL_IN_PROGRESS
0x80042404L
Another operation is in progress; this operation cannot proceed until the previous operation or operations are complete.
VDS_E_INITIALIZE_NOT_CALLED
0x80042402L
The initialization method has not been called.

Remarks

The network query associated with this method can take a long time to complete. If you merely want to refresh the internally-cached provider data, use the IVdsHwProvider::Refresh method instead.
