The only reason one would use STATUS_REPARSE and IO_REPARSE is to change
the FSD context from one FSD volume to another.
If you are already in the context of the FSD volume that you are
interested in, there is no reason, whatsoever, to return STATUS_REPARSE.
It gains you nothing. All you need to do is to change the file path in
the file object to the new location and pass the request down the lower
FSD device.
REPARSE will ask the OS to build a new request in another FSD volume
context.
Does this makes sense? Did I explain this properly?

Hello,
But there are some problems. Can I use STATUS_REPASE to redirect to
write a file? For example: I open an original file in Notepad, and I
modify some content of this file by NOTEPAD. But when I save this file, I
don’t want to make any change of the original file, so I make a copy of
the original file, and I want to let Notepad write that backup file. The
problem is how I can let Notepad redirect to write the backup file. And I
try to use STATUS_REPASE in IRP_WRITE. But it failed to do that. And I
found the backup file and the original file both have no changed.
Please Help. Thanks in advance.
No.
Reparse is only valid on the create call.
You need a copy-on-write implementation.

Is there anywhere where I can get a hold of some sample/example code for
using the IO_REPARSE/STATUS_REPARSE commands so that I can get a better
understanding of how to make use of these two functions?

There are some example applications for creating junction points, such
as the one at sysinternals. Then install filemon and generate some mount
points, etc.
