Hi,
on winnt the fault tolerant information about volumes is kept in a
registry key HKLM\System\Disk\information. But this is in binary form. Is
there any tool from microsoft which parses this or is there any documented
way of retrieving it. In sysinternals.com there is a utility called diskkey
which does this. But it’s not a documented way. Any info is very helpful for
my project.
Thanks in advance,
Nagesh Bhattu

IIRC, this information is all described in one of the DDK header files…
ftdisk.h, or ftdd.h, or some such thing. I think if you do some looking
around, you’ll find it. Not exactly documentation, but close enough…

www.sysinternals.com had an article on this.
