I can use the cluster command to query the value of private properties
associated with resources. For example:

cluster mycluster resource vip /priv:Address

can be used to display the address assigned to the IP Address resource
"VIP". I'd like to do the same thing in code and have been playing around
with various cluster functions but haven't been able to put together what's
needed. Can anyone explain how to do this in code?

Hi Peter,

Have you looked at the Server Cluster APIs? See
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/mscs/mscs/server_cluster_apis_start_page.asp
for the start page for this. Hope this helps.

Peter,

Check out following page from MSDN

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/mscs/mscs/using_the_inline_examples.asp

It has a link to "Index of Examples" and ClusDocEx_ResGetRWPProperties
example should be a good starting point for what you want to achieve. The
same page also has a link to ClusDocEx.h which must be available for any
code example to compile.

Having said that, have you considered programming with Cluster Automation
Server? It is a great and easy to use way to quickly write scripts to
programmatically perform the tasks like the one you mentioned. Please check
out
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/mscs/mscs/programming_with_cluster_automation_server.asp?frame=true

Hope this helps.

Well, of course I did look at these. That's what I meant in my original
message. I've figured it out though. Start with ClusterResourceControl using
the code CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_GET_PRIVATE_PROPERTIES, followed by
a call to ResUtilFindSzProperty (which is in fact in a different library).
These two functions accomplish what I need.
