PLA_S_PROPERTY_IGNORED
Performance Logs and Alerts ignored a property
PLA_S_PROPERTY_IGNORED is HRESULT 3145984 (0x00300100) from winerror.h. The documented description is “Property value will be ignored.” In the Windows platform service that returned an informational HRESULT, the value reports a nonfailure state that must not be collapsed into plain S_OK.
A cleared severity bit does not make the return equivalent to ordinary completion; the postcondition remains specific.
What must be true before accepting it
Verify that the ignored property is known and its absence does not invalidate the collector-set behavior required by the caller. That proof prevents usable partial state from being confused with full completion.
Where the status is encountered
- Certificate provisioning, app activation, performance data collection, NDIS, or troubleshooting; capture the exact API, object, and phase because the same numeric success severity does not define the state by itself.
- System management code that must preserve a nonfailure result;
- Automation that would otherwise collapse the HRESULT to a Boolean;
Correct handling and recovery
Read back effective configuration, notify the operator about the ignored field, and fail the higher-level operation when that field was mandatory.
Do not use an unchanged tight retry loop; it can duplicate effects or conceal a terminal state.
Practical scenario
A collector template includes a property unsupported by the target data collector. Import succeeds, but validation flags the omitted behavior.
Difference from nearby results
A successful property assignment applies the value; this status says the object continued without using it.
