obquerynamestring problem

Hi,
I’m using ObQueryNameString() KPI. However, it always returns a constant 58
bytes, with the unicode buffer containing “/device/hardiskvolume1”.
Isn’t this KPI supposed to give me the entire pathname?
Can anyone help…
Thanks,
Samarth

On what object do you call it?

No, you must call the file system to get a name that resides within the
file systems namespace.
