VDS_HBAPORT_TYPE enumeration (vdshwprv.h)

[Beginning with Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012, the Virtual Disk Service COM interface is superseded by the Windows Storage Management API.]

Defines the set of valid types for an HBA port. These types correspond to the HBA_PORTTYPE values in the HBA API.

Syntax

typedef enum _VDS_HBAPORT_TYPE {
  VDS_HPT_UNKNOWN = 1,
  VDS_HPT_OTHER = 2,
  VDS_HPT_NOTPRESENT = 3,
  VDS_HPT_NPORT = 5,
  VDS_HPT_NLPORT = 6,
  VDS_HPT_FLPORT = 7,
  VDS_HPT_FPORT = 8,
  VDS_HPT_EPORT = 9,
  VDS_HPT_GPORT = 10,
  VDS_HPT_LPORT = 20,
  VDS_HPT_PTP = 21
} VDS_HBAPORT_TYPE;

Constants

VDS_HPT_UNKNOWN Value: 1 The port type is unknown. HBA_PORTTYPE_UNKNOWN
VDS_HPT_OTHER Value: 2 The port type is another (undefined) type. HBA_PORTTYPE_OTHER
VDS_HPT_NOTPRESENT Value: 3 The port type is not present. HBA_PORTTYPE_NOTPRESENT
VDS_HPT_NPORT Value: 5 The port type is a fabric. HBA_PORTTYPE_NPORT
VDS_HPT_NLPORT Value: 6 The port type is a public loop. HBA_PORTTYPE_NLPORT
VDS_HPT_FLPORT Value: 7 The port type is a fabric on a loop. HBA_PORTTYPE_FLPORT
VDS_HPT_FPORT Value: 8 The port type is a fabric port. HBA_PORTTYPE_FPORT
VDS_HPT_EPORT Value: 9 The port type is a fabric expansion port.
VDS_HPT_GPORT Value: 10 The port type is a generic fabric port.
VDS_HPT_LPORT Value: 20 The port type is a private loop. HBA_PORTTYPE_LPORT
VDS_HPT_PTP Value: 21 The port type is point-to-point. HBA_PORTTYPE_PTP

Remarks

Note  Additional constants might be added to the VDS_HBAPORT_TYPE enumeration in future Windows versions. For this reason, your application must be designed to gracefully handle an unrecognized VDS_HBAPORT_TYPE enumeration constant.
