The information to be populated into the Predefined Devices object class is described in the Predefined Devices (PdDv) Object Class. The following descriptors should be set as indicated:
The Bus Configurator behaves slightly differently for cards that are bus extenders. Typically, it finds an adapter card and returns the name of the adapter to the Configuration Manager so that it can be configured.
However, for a bus extender, the Bus Configurator directly invokes the device's Configure method. The bus extender's Configure method defines the various adapters on the card as separate devices (each needing its own predefined information and device methods), and writes the names to standard output for the Bus Configurator to intercept. The Bus Configurator adds these names to the list of device names for which it is to assign bus resources.
An example of a type of adapter card that would be a bus extender is one which allows an expansion box with additional card slots to be connected to the system.
