Exceptions, if any, are noted in this section. If an update version, service pack or Knowledge Base (KB) number appears with a product name, the behavior changed in that update. The new behavior also applies to subsequent updates unless otherwise specified. If a product edition appears with the product version, behavior is different in that product edition.
Unless otherwise specified, any statement of optional behavior in this specification that is prescribed using the terms "SHOULD" or "SHOULD NOT" implies product behavior in accordance with the SHOULD or SHOULD NOT prescription. Unless otherwise specified, the term "MAY" implies that the product does not follow the prescription.
<1> Section 1.3: The server end of the Disk Management Remote Protocol is implemented by the Windows DmAdmin service on any machine that exposes storage objects for management. On each Windows machine, the client end of the Disk Management Remote Protocol is implemented by the DmRemote COM server. The DmRemote COM server invokes method calls on the DCOM interface on behalf of a number of components, including the Windows Logical Disk Manager (LDM) user interface (UI) and the Diskpart.exe command-line tool.
<2> Section 1.4: The Disk Management Remote Protocol is used by the Windows LDM UI and the Diskpart.exe command-line tool.
<3> Section 1.6: Windows 2000 Server, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003 implement the Disk Management Remote Protocol. The Windows Server 2003 operating system and Windows Vista implement the VDS Remote Protocol, which is used for disk management for these operating systems. The interfaces associated with the Disk Management Remote Protocol are not available on Windows Vista. The Disk Management Remote Protocol is replaced in Windows Vista by the VDS Remote Protocol.
The IDMNotify and IDMRemoteServer interfaces are available on Windows XP, Windows 2000 Server, and Windows Server 2003.
The IVolumeClient and IVolumeClient2 interfaces are to be used for disk management for Windows 2000 Server. These interfaces can be used for disk management for Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP.
The IVolumeClient3 interface can be used with Windows XP and Windows Server 2003, but cannot be used with Windows 2000 Server.
The IVolumeClient4 interface can be used with Windows Server 2003 but cannot be used with Windows 2000 Server or Windows XP.

<16> Section 3.2.4: Windows servers enforce authorization checks. For more information on the authorization requirements for the various methods, see section 2.1.
<17> Section 3.2.4.3: In Windows, all the methods listed that can be implemented asynchronously are implemented as asynchronous methods.
<18> Section 3.2.4.3: For example, in Windows, the call to the file system to format will call back to the server with notifications based on the percentage of the format completed. In Windows, the server sends notifications based on 10-percent increments; for example, notifications are sent at 0 percent finished, 10 percent finished, or 20 percent finished.

Windows stores these values in the registry under "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\dmio\Partition Info" as DWORD values "OldPartitionNumber" and "NewPartitionNumber." After the server has updated the boot settings as necessary, it deletes the registry entries for "OldPartitionNumber" and "NewPartitionNumber".

<185> Section 3.2.4.4.1.54: In Windows XP operating system Service Pack 2 (SP2) and Windows Server 2003 operating system with Service Pack 1 (SP1), if cRemote parameter is nonzero, the server uses server machine account authentication to make calls to the IDMNotify interface that is specified by notificationInterface.
<186> Section 3.2.4.4.1.55: In Windows, the server responds to all client messages — even after the Uninitialize method has been called by the client. However, after the Uninitialize method has been called by the client, the client cannot receive any further notifications from the server.
<187> Section 3.2.4.4.1.59: There is no operating system support for this method, so it is not used by Windows.
