IVdsVolume::ClearFlags 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[Beginning with Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012, the Virtual Disk Service COM interface is superseded by the Windows Storage Management API.]
Clears the volume flags.
Syntax
HRESULT ClearFlags(
[in] ULONG ulFlags
);
Parameters
[in] ulFlags
The flags enumerated by VDS_VOLUME_FLAG. Callers can clear the following flags:
VDS_VF_LBN_REMAP_ENABLED VDS_VF_HIDDEN VDS_VF_READONLY VDS_VF_NO_DEFAULT_DRIVE_LETTER VDS_VF_INSTALLABLE VDS_VF_SHADOW_COPY
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 flags were cleared successfully. |

The flags to be cleared do not match the flags set previously with the SetFlags method and bRevertOnClose is set to TRUE. |
Remarks
To create a boot volume on a dynamic disk, you must set the VDS_VF_INSTALLABLE flag for the volume and then format the volume by calling the IVdsVolumeMF::Format method.
