3.1.4.3.1.33 CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_NETNAME_SET_PWD_INFO

The CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_NETNAME_SET_PWD_INFO resource control code updates information about the designated associated security principal of the resource.

ClusAPI Protocol version 2.0 servers fail this method by using error code 0x00000001 (ERROR_INVALID_FUNCTION).

The server MUST fail this method by using error code 0x00000001 (ERROR_INVALID_FUNCTION) if the designated type of the resource does not support the functionality of an alternate computer name with an associated security principal. The server MUST fail this method if the designated resource is not in the ClusterResourceOffline state.

The client MUST provide a CLUS_NETNAME_PWD_INFO structure, as specified in section 2.2.3.13, in the buffer that is designated by lpInBuffer.

After successful completion of the method, the server SHOULD NOT write any data to the buffer that is designated by lpOutBuffer.

Prior to invoking this method, the client SHOULD use implementation-specific mechanisms to ensure that the state of the associated security principal on a directory server is consistent with the data provided in the  CLUS_NETNAME_PWD_INFO input data structure. If the provided CLUS_NETNAME_PWD_INFO input data structure is not consistent with the associated security principal on a directory server, then the server MUST still complete the method (assuming no other failure conditions are met), but the server SHOULD subsequently fail to bring the designated resource online.

The server SHOULD accept a CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_NETNAME_SET_PWD_INFO resource control code request if its protocol server state is read-only and MUST accept the request for processing if it is in the read/write state, as specified in section 3.1.1.
