IVdsIscsiTarget::GetConnectedInitiators method (vds.h)
[Beginning with Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012, the Virtual Disk Service COM interface is superseded by the Windows Storage Management API.]
Returns the list of iSCSI names of the initiators currently logged into the target.
Syntax
HRESULT GetConnectedInitiators(
[out] LPWSTR **pppwszInitiatorList,
[out] LONG *plNumberOfInitiators
);
Parameters
[out] pppwszInitiatorList
The address of a variable that receives an array of strings containing the iSCSI names of the initiators currently logged into the target. Callers must free each string in this array, as well as the array itself, by using the CoTaskMemFree function.
[out] plNumberOfInitiators
A pointer to the number of strings returned in pppwszInitiatorList.
Return value
This method can return standard HRESULT values, such as E_INVALIDARG or E_OUTOFMEMORY, and VDS-specific return values. It can also return converted system error codes using the HRESULT_FROM_WIN32 macro. Errors can originate from VDS itself or from the underlying VDS provider that is being used. Possible return values include the following.
| Return code/value | Description |

The cache of the provider is corrupted. This indicates a software or communication problem inside a provider that caches information about the attached devices. The caller can use the IVdsHwProvider::Reenumerate method followed by the IVdsHwProvider::Refresh method to restore the cache. |
