Custom Cluster Resource Extensions
i'm implementing custom resource type , reading through documentation extension dll , run disclaimers such "support failover cluster administrator extension dlls removed in windows server 2008."
that seems bit misleading because gather property sheet extensions still supported wizards, context menus, etc. have been dropped. in case extension apis seem deprecated/discouraged/out-of-date. based on have couple questions:
- what preferred/recommended approach implementing custom resource type configuration interfaces?
- am safe implementing property sheet extension , distributing it? hooks need change out under me in next service pack?
we used allow lot of customization of gui, , made lot of investments enable , support it... reality no 1 used it. when re-wrote failover cluster manager gui mmc snap-in in win2008 dropped support of it... except kept thing used, custom property pages resources. enables customizing private properties custom resource dll's.
we still support in win2008, win2008 r2, , have no current plans drop support time in near future.
thanks!
