-StorageSubSystemName <String[]> Description
The New-StorageSubsystemVirtualDisk cmdlet allows the creation of a VirtualDisk object on a storage subsystem that does not support creation of storage pools, or if its storage pool does not support virtual disk creation.
Examples
EXAMPLE 1
PS C:\>$stsubsys = (Get-StorageSubsystem)
PS C:\>New-StorageSubsystemVirtualDisk -StorageSubsystemUniqueId $stsubsys.UniqueID -FriendlyName "VirtualDisk01" -Size "5GB" -ProvisioningType FixedThis example creates a Virtual Disk named VirtualDisk01 on the provided StorageSubsystem without the use of a Storage Pool

| Type: | UInt64 |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-IsEnclosureAware
Specifies that the enclosure supports SCSI Enclosure Services (SES), which is utilized for providing things like Slot location for a physical disk, as well as to manage LEDs on the disks for visual identification.
| Type: | SwitchParameter |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-NumberOfColumns

| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-PhysicalDiskRedundancy
Specifies the physical disk redundancy value to use during the creation of a virtual disk.
| Type: | UInt16 |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-ProvisioningType
Specifies the type of provisioning. The acceptable values for this parameter are: Unknown, Fixed, or Thin.
| Type: | ProvisioningType |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-RequestNoSinglePointOfFailure
Requests that the virtual disk is created on hardware that has path redundancy to provide resilience to storage path faults. This cannot be guaranteed.
| Type: | Boolean |
| Position: | Named |
| Default value: | None |
| Required: | False |
| Accept pipeline input: | False |
| Accept wildcard characters: | False |
