NetDfsSetInfo info  Overview  Group

[This is preliminary documentation and subject to change.]

The NetDfsSetInfo function associates information with a junction point in the named Distributed File System (Dfs) tree structure. The function can set information relevant to a specific server and share, or information specific to an entire junction point.

NET_API_STATUS NET_API_FUNCTION NetDfsSetInfo(

    LPWSTR DfsEntryPath,

// Dfs entry path for the junction point

    LPWSTR ServerName OPTIONAL,

// name of server exporting the storage

    LPWSTR ShareName OPTIONAL,

// name of share exporting the storage

    DWORD Level,

// level of information to be set

    LPBYTE Buffer 

// buffer holding information

   );

Parameters

DfsEntryPath 
[in] Pointer to a null-terminated Unicode character string that specifies the Universal Naming Convention path of a junction point in a Dfs tree structure. The string must be of the form:

\\Dfsname\sharename\path-to-junction-point

where Dfsname is the name of a Windows NT server that hosts the Dfs root volume; sharename is the name of a share that is published on the Dfs host server; and path-to-junction-point specifies the path on the physical share.

ServerName 
[in] Pointer to a null-terminated Unicode character string that specifies the name of the storage server that the junction point references. This parameter is optional. For additional information, see the following Remarks section.
ShareName 
[in] Pointer to a null-terminated Unicode character string that specifies the name of the share on the storage server that the junction point references. This parameter is optional. For additional information, see the following Remarks section.
Level
[in] Specifies the information level of the set request. This parameter must be the following value.

Value

Meaning

100

Return a comment about the Dfs junction point. The Buffer parameter contains a DFS_INFO_100 structure.

Buffer 
[in] Pointer to a buffer that contains the information structure.

Return Values

If the function succeeds, the return value is NERR_Success.

If the function fails, the return value is a Win32 API error code. For a list of error codes, see Error Codes.

Remarks

If you specify both the ServerName and ShareName parameters, the NetDfsSetInfo function returns information specific to that server and share. If the parameters are not specified, the function returns information that is specific to the entire junction point.
