Storage management application sample
|
|
=====================================
|
|
|
|
This sample is an end-to-end application that uses the [Windows Storage Management API](http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/hh830613) to create a formatted volume on a storage subsystem.
|
|
|
|
This sample performs the following steps:
|
|
|
|
1. Gets the subsystem object from the subsystem name that a user specified.
|
|
2. Creates a storage pool in the storage subsystem using one physical disk.
|
|
3. Creates a virtual disk in the storage pool.
|
|
4. Creates a partition on the virtual disk.
|
|
5. Creates an NTFS volume on the partition.
|
|
6. Formats the volume.
|
|
|
|
This sample is written in C++ and requires some experience with WMIv2 programming.
|
|
|
|
It is intended to be used by storage application programmers and assumes familiarity with storage hardware programming and storage industry standards such as the [SMI-S v1.5 specification](%20http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?linkid=161225), which can be downloaded from the [SNIA website](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?linkid=161226).

This sample contains the following files:
|
|
|
|
- StorageManagementApplication.cpp
|
|
- StorageManagementApplication.h
|
|
- StorageManagementApplication.sln
|
|
- StorageManagementApplication.vcxproj
|
|
- StorageManagementApplication.vcxproj.filters

**Note** The Windows-classic-samples repo contains a variety of code samples that exercise the various programming models, platforms, features, and components available in Windows and/or Windows Server. This repo provides a Visual Studio solution (SLN) file for each sample, along with the source files, assets, resources, and metadata needed to compile and run the sample. For more info about the programming models, platforms, languages, and APIs demonstrated in these samples, check out the documentation on the [Windows Dev Center](https://dev.windows.com). This sample is provided as-is in order to indicate or demonstrate the functionality of the programming models and feature APIs for Windows and/or Windows Server. This sample was created for Windows 8.1 and/or Windows Server 2012 R2 using Visual Studio 2013, but in many cases it will run unaltered using later versions.
