This is a referred to as a VPART locate device.
If the VHD file's parent disk signature and partition identifier are also omitted, it is also necessary to search all of the physical disks to locate the VHD file. This is referred to as a VPART+PPART locate device. A locate device can be specified by calling the SetVhdDeviceElement method.
