Description

The Set-StorageSetting cmdlet adjusts or configures current storage settings of the StorageSetting object.

Examples

EXAMPLE 1

PS C:\> Set-StorageSetting -NewDiskPolicy OfflineAll

This example changes the new disk policy so that all newly attached disks remain offline.

EXAMPLE 2

PS C:\> Set-StorageSetting -NewDiskPolicy OfflineInternal

This example changes the new disk policy so that all newly attached disks on a local bus remain offline.

EXAMPLE 3

PS C:\> Set-StorageSetting -NewDiskPolicy OfflineShared

This example changes the new disk policy so that all new shared bus disks remain offline and all new local bus disks remain online.

EXAMPLE 4

PS C:\> Set-StorageSetting -NewDiskPolicy OnlineAll

This example changes the new disk policy so that all new disks are brought online, regardless of whether the disk are on a local or shared bus.

Parameters

-AsJob

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-CimSession

Runs the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, such as the output of a New-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.

Type:CimSession[]
Aliases:Session
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-NewDiskPolicy

Manages the policy that will be applied to newly attached disks. New disk policy accepts the following settings; (only applies to disks that were not previously seen), The acceptable values for this parameter are:

  • OnlineAll: (Same as current diskpartsanpolicy definition) All disks are automatically onlined regardless of bus-type or configuration. Can cause data loss if used on shared bus disks improperly.
  • OfflineAll: (Same as current diskpartsanpolicy definition) All disks are automatically left offline, regardless of the bus-type. (not recommended for Windows Client as this would result in attached USB disk not being available by default).
  • OfflineInternal: Leaves all newly attached disks, which are non-shared storage busses (such as ATA, SATA, USB) offline by default. (new for Windows Server® 2012).
  • OfflineShared: Leaves all newly attached disks which are on a sharable bus (iSCSI, FC, SAS) offline by default.

In Windows Server 2016, including Nano Server, the default policy is OfflineShared.

Type:NewDiskPolicy
Accepted values:Unknown, OnlineAll, OfflineShared, OfflineAll, OfflineInternal
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-ScrubPolicy

Specifies the policy for the files that the automatic data integrity scanner scrubs. The acceptable values for this parameter are:

  • Off: No files are scrubbed.
  • Integrity Streams: Only files with integrity streams are scrubbed.
  • All: All files are scrubbed.
Type:ScrubPolicy
Accepted values:Off, IntegrityStreams, All
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-ThrottleLimit

Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then Windows PowerShell® calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.

Type:Int32
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

Inputs

None

Outputs

None

Notes

  • When used in Failover Cluster, cmdlets from the Storage module operate on cluster level (all servers in the cluster).
