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[Beginning with Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012, the Virtual Disk Service COM interface is superseded by the Windows Storage Management API.]

Sets the status (either online or offline) of the controllers in the subsystem.

Syntax

HRESULT SetControllerStatus(
  [in] VDS_OBJECT_ID *pOnlineControllerIdArray,
  [in] LONG          lNumberOfOnlineControllers,
  [in] VDS_OBJECT_ID *pOfflineControllerIdArray,
  [in] LONG          lNumberOfOfflineControllers
);

Parameters

[in] pOnlineControllerIdArray

Pointer to an array of controller GUIDs. The provider sets these controllers to online. This array includes controllers already set to online that are to remain so.

[in] lNumberOfOnlineControllers

The number of controllers specified in pOnlineControllersArray.

[in] pOfflineControllerIdArray

Pointer to an array of controller GUIDs. The provider sets these controllers to offline. This array includes controllers already set to offline that are to remain so.

[in] lNumberOfOfflineControllers

The number of controllers specified in pOfflineControllersArray.

Return value

This method can return standard HRESULT values, such as E_INVALIDARG or 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_DELETED
0x8004240BL
The subsystem object is no longer present.
VDS_E_OBJECT_STATUS_FAILED
0x80042431L
The subsystem 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_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND
0x80042405L
Can be returned from any method that takes a VDS_OBJECT_ID constant. This return value indicates that the identifier does not refer to an existing object.

Remarks

This method enables a caller to set the status of all controllers at once. Use the IVdsController::SetStatus method to set the status of a single controller.

Callers must pass the complete set of controllers in either the pOnlineControllerIdArray or pOfflineControllerIdArray parameter for each method call. The E_INVALIDARG return value can indicate that not all controllers in the subsystem have been specified in the arguments to this method.
The SetControllerStatus method requires that all controllers in the subsystem be present in one of the two arrays supplied.
