IMAPI_E_IMAGEMANAGER_IMAGE_TOO_BIG
IMAPI_E_IMAGEMANAGER_IMAGE_TOO_BIG means the image is too large for IIsoImageManager::Validate; Microsoft states that the size exceeds MAXLONG sectors. The image-manager limit is expressed in sector count, not simply a generic filesystem file-size error.
Calculate the 2048-byte sector count before validation
- Measure the image length and verify 2048-byte alignment first.
- Divide by 2048 and compare the sector count with the validator range described by IMAPI.
- Do not confuse this limit with optical-media capacity or
IFileSystemImage::FreeMediaBlocks; those belong to image creation and burn planning.
Selecting larger physical media cannot make IIsoImageManager::ValidateSetStream is used: a custom IStream can expose an incorrect seek endpoint or size calculation even when the stored file is smaller. Record both byte length and derived sector count so the failure can be traced to image generation, stream wrapping or a genuinely oversized image.
