FileIndex in FSCC FileIdFullDirectoryInformation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Dochelp,

I am looking at MS-FSCC for the FileIdFullDirectoryInformation
responses.
The description of FileIndex is as:
===
FileIndex (4 bytes): A 32-bit unsigned integer that contains the byte
offset of the file within the
parent directory. For file systems in which the position of a file
within the parent directory is not
fixed and can be changed at any time to maintain sort order, this
field SHOULD be set to 0 and
MUST be ignored.<107>

Footnote for <107> is :
===
<107> Section 2.4.18: When using NTFS, the position of a file within
the parent directory is not fixed
and can be changed at any time. Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows
Server 2003, Windows Vista,
Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2008 R2 set this
value to zero for files on
NTFS file systems.


Is this list of OSs where FileIndex == 0 for NTFS complete?
I am testing against Windows2016 with a share on NTFS and it returns
FileIndex==0 also.
Can you check and clarify?


regards
