MSCluster_DiskPartition class

A dynamic WMI class that represents a disk partition.

**Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows Server 2008: **

Before Windows Server 2012 this class inherited directly from MSCluster_LogicalElement. Beginning in Windows Server 2012 it inherits from MSCluster_ClusterDiskPartition and does not add any properties of its own.

The following syntax is simplified from Managed Object Format (MOF) code and includes all of the inherited properties.

Members

The MSCluster_DiskPartition class has these types of members:

Properties

The MSCluster_DiskPartition class has these properties.

Caption

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MaxLen (64)

A short textual description (one-line string) of the partition.

This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.

Characteristics

Data type: uint32

Access type: Read-only

Provides the characteristics of the partition. The cluster defines characteristics only for resources. For a description of these characteristics, see CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_GET_CHARACTERISTICS.

**Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows Server 2008: **

This property is read/write before Windows Server 2012.

This property is inherited from MSCluster_LogicalElement.

Description

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Provides a textual description of the partition.

This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.

FileSystem

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Provides access to the FileSystem property, which is the file system defined for the partition.

This property is inherited from MSCluster_ClusterDiskPartition.

FileSystemFlags

Data type: uint32

Access type: Read-only

Provides access to the FileSystemFlags property, which is any descriptive flags set for the partition's file system.

This property is inherited from MSCluster_ClusterDiskPartition.

Values include the following:

1

The file system supports case-sensitive file names.

2

The file system preserves the case of file names when it places a name on the storage class resource.

4

The file system supports Unicode in file names as they appear on storage class resource.

8

The file system preserves and enforces access control lists (ACLs).

Flags

Data type: uint32

Access type: Read-only

Provides access to the flags set for the partition. The cluster defines flags only for resources. For a description of these flags, see CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_GET_FLAGS.

**Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows Server 2008: **

This property is read/write before Windows Server 2012.

This property is inherited from MSCluster_LogicalElement.

FreeSpace

Data type: uint32

Access type: Read-only

Provides the total space available for the partition, in megabytes.

This property is inherited from MSCluster_ClusterDiskPartition.

InstallDate

Data type: datetime

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MappingStrings ("MIF.DMTF|ComponentID|001.5")

Indicates when the partition was installed. A lack of a value does not indicate that the partition is not installed.

This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.

MaximumComponentLength

Data type: uint32

Access type: Read-only

Provides access to the MaximumComponentLength property, which is the maximum file name component length, in characters, allowed by the partition's file system.

This property is inherited from MSCluster_ClusterDiskPartition.

MountPoints

Data type: string array

Access type: Read-only

The mount points of the partition.

**Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows Server 2008: **

Due to inheritance restructuring, this property is not available on this class before Windows Server 2012.

This property is inherited from MSCluster_ClusterDiskPartition.

Name

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MaxLen (256)

Defines the label by which the partition is known.

This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.

PartitionNumber

Data type: uint32

Access type: Read-only

Provides the partition number of the partition.

This property is inherited from MSCluster_ClusterDiskPartition.

Path

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: Key

Provides the path, including the drive letter if present, of the clustered disk partition.

This property is inherited from MSCluster_ClusterDiskPartition.

SerialNumber

Data type: uint32

Access type: Read-only

Provides access to the SerialNumber property, which is the partition serial number.

This property is inherited from MSCluster_ClusterDiskPartition.

Status

Data type: string

Access type: Read-only

Qualifiers: MaxLen (10)
