Subclass of CIM_Capabilities

DiskPartitionConfigurationCapabilities instances describe a partition style supported by the platform. An instance of this class is associated with a volume (or partition) when a partition table is installed (see DiskPartitionConfigurationService.SetPartitionStyle.

Key properties

Local properties

uint32 PartitionTableSize

The number of block occupied by the partition table and other metadata. The effective block size for partitions is the StorageExtent’s ConsumableBlocks minus this size.

uint16 PartitionStyle

ValueMap Values
2 MBR
3 GPT
4 VTOC

uint16[] ValidSubPartitionStyles

Some partitions can act as a container for other partitions. If sub partitions are not supported, this should be set to NULL.

uint16 Version

The version number associated with this partition style.

uint16[] SupportedSynchronousActions
