SeparateMonitor Property for Resources

The SeparateMonitor property indicates whether or not the resource requires its own Resource Monitor.

Quick Info

Type: DWORD
Access: Read/write
Function: ClusterResourceControl
Structure: CLUSPROP_DWORD
Control Code: CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_GET_COMMON_PROPERTIES

Remarks

When ClusterResourceControl processes the CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_GET_COMMON_PROPERTIES control code, it returns a property list that includes the SeparateMonitor property as one of the entries. The property value portion of the entry contains a CLUSPROP_DWORD structure that is set as follows:

DWORD SeparateMonitorData = TRUE;
CLUSPROP_DWORD SeparateMonitorValue;
SeparateMonitorValue.Syntax = CLUSPROP_SYNTAX_LIST_VALUE_DWORD;
SeparateMonitorValue.cbLength = sizeof(DWORD);
SeparateMonitorValue.dw = SeparateMonitorData;
 

The data value for the SeparateMonitor property can be set to TRUE or FALSE. To use a debugger with a resource DLL, the resource's SeparateMonitor property must be set to TRUE.

A change to the SeparateMonitor property will not take effect immediately unless the resource is offline at the time of the change. If the resource is online, the change will take effect after the resource is taken offline and brought back online.
