How to handle - Deleting resource and service shutdown

I'm writting a resource dll and tyring to perfrom some actions when my
resource is deleted from the cluster config. I looked at adding code during
OnClose() function, but it turned out that OnClose() is called when clussvc
is stopped. My question is how can I distinguished between delete/remove of
resource and cluster/system shutdown. Is there a way to capture service as
well as system shutdown from resource DLL. Thanks.

To handle deletion of your resource, you can handle CLUSCTL_RESOURCE_DELETE
control code in your resource dll's ResourceControl Callback Function. You
wont be able to stop deletion of your resource butu you can certianly take
any action in this handler.

Thanks for the info. That was it. Also, you are right in that even if you
return !ERROR_SUCCESS, resource does get deleted and that is fine with me and
probably in many cases. I guess defuat handler in resource monitor process
ignores it.
Thanks again.
