If the operation is successfully completed, the pointer receives the
IEnumVdsObject interface of the object, which contains an enumeration of
subsystem objects in the provider. Callers MUST release the interface when they
are finished with it.</p><p><b>Return Values: </b>The method MUST return zero or
a non-error <a href="8eef5d42-22d7-4302-aed9-12face91505a#gt_799103ab-b3cb-4eab-8c55-322821b2b235" data-linktype="relative-path">HRESULT</a> (as

to indicate success, or return an implementation-specific nonzero error code to
indicate failure. For the HRESULT values predefined by the Virtual Disk Service
Remote Protocol, see section <a href="5102cc53-3143-4268-ba4c-6ea39e999ab4" data-linktype="relative-path">2.2.3</a>.</p><p>When the server receives this message, it MUST validate the
