STATUS_DIRECTORY_NOT_RM
The handle targets a directory, but not a TxF resource-manager directory
TxF distinguishes ordinary directories from directories that contain or identify a filesystem resource manager. Management operations must be issued against the correct volume or secondary-RM location; pointing them at an application folder does not make that folder an RM.
Resolve mount points and final paths before deciding that the resource manager is missing. A drive letter, mounted folder, remote share, snapshot, or reparse point can place the visible path on a different volume than expected.
What to inspect
- Resolve the final volume GUID path and filesystem for the directory handle.
- Determine whether the operation expects the default volume RM or a configured secondary RM.
- Check for mount-point, reparse-point, and remote-share redirection.
- Do not create or copy TxF metadata into an arbitrary directory to satisfy the check.
