Hi.
I want to know when exactly blocks are allocated on secondary storage in NTFS.
We want to delay that operation.Can it be possiible in windows.
i hvnt got the answer of the question of allocation…
I hv posted it in the previous thresd but its dead thread…
I tried to create the temporary file…
It got the effect of temporary file, ie. when i restarted unsafely, the file is not found on the hard disk.
But i didnt understand the exact time when the size will be allocated for the file on the hard disk…
My thinking is that, when the ne data is added to the file, means its size is increased, then the allocation is done on hard disk, but the data is not written, for the lazy write effect,
The data is written when ever the defurred procedure Timer wakes up and write the modified data on the disk from the cache…
Plz help me! Its important for me to kow this point.
