Description

The MP_SetProprietaryProperties() function sets proprietary properties in supported object instances.

MP_STATUS_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND

The oid owner ID or object sequence number is invalid.

MP_STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER

The pPropertyList is null, or when one of the properties referenced in the list is not associated with the specified object ID, or the oid has a type subfield other thanMP_OBJECT_TYPE_PROPRIETARY_LOAD_BALANCE, or MP_OBJECT_TYPE_PLUGIN, or MP_OBJECT_TYPE_MULTIPATH_LU.
