-ThrottleLimit<Int32>

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.

<CommonParameters>

This cmdlet supports the common parameters: -Verbose, -Debug, -ErrorAction, -ErrorVariable, -OutBuffer, and -OutVariable. For more information, see    about_CommonParameters (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkID=113216).

Inputs

The input type is the type of the objects that you can pipe to the cmdlet.

  • Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#ROOT/Microsoft/Windows/Storage/MSFT_StorageTier

    You can use the pipeline operator to pass an MSFT_StorageTier object to the InputObject parameter to get the storage tier supported size associated with the StorageTier object.

Outputs

The output type is the type of the objects that the cmdlet emits.

  • System.Management.Automation.PSCustomObject

    This cmdlet returns an object that lists the minimum and maximum amounts of space that the specified type of virtual disk could use in the specified storage tier as well as the tier size divisor. These values are System.UInt64 objects.

Examples

Example 1: Get the size estimate for a mirror space

This command gets the storage tier supported size estimates for capacity of a Fast (SSD) tier for a mirror space by using the FriendlyName and ResiliencySettingName parameters.

PS C:\> Get-StorageTierSupportedSize -FriendlyName "*SSD*" -ResiliencySettingName "Mirror"
