## Declaration

```occ
virtual kern_return_t UserDoesHBAPerformDeviceManagement(bool *result);
```

## Parameters

- `result`: A pointer to a Boolean value. On return, set this to true if the HBA manages target device creation.

## Return Value

Return Value A value that indicates the result of determining device management. kIOReturnSuccess indicates success. For error definitions, see IOKit Constants.

## Discussion

Discussion This method determines if the HBA manages target device creation and destruction.
