If you are specifically asking about dynamic disks managed by the veritas
drivers and services, then the answer is that this stuff is currently a
proprietary api, and that you have to either hack (reverse engineer) what it
might be or go to veritas and buy their sdk. Reverse engineering does not
appear to be an insurmountable problem, but it most likely violates some
agreement you aren’t aware that you signed on to.

I meant the original Windows 2000 dynamic disk (not
basic).
By default the disks are basic, but you can upgrade
them to dynamic disk with “Disk Manager”.
There is no only 4 partitions limit and more other
stuff…

That’s the veritas stuff and as far as I know the interfaces to the veritas
drivers and services are veritas proprietary.
