Get-ClusterAvailableDisk

Get-ClusterAvailableDisk

Get information about the disks that can support failover clustering and are visible to all nodes, but are not yet part of the set of clustered disks.

Syntax

Get-ClusterAvailableDisk [-InputObject <psobject>] [-Cluster <string>] [<CommonParameters>]
  • InputObject

  • Cluster

Detailed Description

If a disk is unexpectedly missing from the list of disks that are available for use in the cluster, make sure that the configuration of the storage allows the operating system on all clustered servers to recognize and mount the disk as needed. The disk must be a basic disk (not a dynamic disk) and should not be exposed to any other servers.

Parameters

Cluster

Specifies the name of the cluster to run this cmdlet on. If you type "-Cluster ." or omit the parameter, the cmdlet runs on the local cluster.
