CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_STATE_CHANGE_REASON control code

Under certain circumstances, the cluster sends the CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_STATE_CHANGE_REASON control code to a resource DLL immediately before calling the Offline or Terminate entry-point function, providing the DLL with the reason for the state change. Because the control code is internal, applications cannot use it in a control code function.

Parameters

This control code has no parameters.

Return value

This control code does not return a value.

Resource DLL Support

Optional. By default, resource DLLs do not receive the CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_STATE_CHANGE_REASON control code under any circumstances. To receive the control code, a resource DLL must report the following characteristic: CLUS_CHAR_REQUIRES_STATE_CHANGE_REASON.

For information on how to report characteristics for your resource DLL see CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_GET_CHARACTERISTICS.

The CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_STATE_CHANGE_REASON control code gives resource DLLs the option of implementing different shutdown procedures in response to different shutdown conditions. For example, a resource DLL may implement a graceful, clean shutdown under most circumstances, but if the Cluster service stops unexpectedly, the DLL may implement a fast and dirty brute-force shutdown to facilitate faster failover.

To support CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_STATE_CHANGE_REASON control code in your resource DLL, perform the following steps:

  • Initialize a CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_STATE_CHANGE_REASON_STRUCT structure for each resource managed by the resource DLL. Typically this structure is included in the resource DLL's resource structure.

  • In your implementation of ResourceControl:

    • Handle the CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_GET_CHARACTERISTICS control code and return a value that includes CLUS_CHAR_REQUIRES_STATE_CHANGE_REASON.
    • Handle the CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_STATE_CHANGE_REASON control code and store the reason code passed in the lpInBuffer parameter in the eReason member of the resource structure.
  • When implementing Offline and Terminate, read the eReason member of the resource structure and, if this member is not eResourceStateChangeReasonUnknown (from the CLUSTER_RESOURCE_STATE_CHANGE_REASON enumeration), perform any necessary operations. Before returning from Offline or Terminate, reset the eReason member of the resource structure to eResourceStateChangeReasonUnknown.
