The intent of stage 2 is to use the mini-FSD as an FSD. Therefore, all the guidelines and interfaces specified in this document apply with the following exceptions.

The following functions must be fully supported by the mini-FSD:

o

FS_ATTACH (remote mini-FSD only)
o
FS_ATTRIBUTE
o
FS_CHGFILEPTR
o
FS_CLOSE
o
FS_COMMIT
o
FS_INIT
o
FS_IOCTL
o
FS_MOUNT (local mini-FSD only)
o
FS_NAME
o
FS_OPENCREATE (existing file only)
o
FS_PROCESSNAME
o
FS_READ

Note that since the mini-FSD is only required to support reading, FS_OPENCREATE need only support opening an existing file (not the create or replace options).

None of the other functions required for FSDs are required for the mini-FSD but must be defined and should return the ERROR_UNSUPPORTED_FUNCTION return code.

The full complement of helper functions specified in this document is available to the mini-FSD. However, the mini-FSD may NOT use any other dynamic link calls.
