Examples

1: Update the name of a storage logical unit.

The first command gets the logical unit object named LUN01 and stores the object in the $LogicalUnit variable.

The second command changes the name of the logical unit object stored in $LogicalUnit to "New Name for Logical Unit".

PS C:\> $LogicalUnit = Get-SCStorageLogicalUnit -Name "LUN01"
PS C:\> Set-SCStorageLogicalUnit -StorageLogicalUnit $LogicalUnit -Name "New Name for Logical Unit"

2: Allocate storage to a host group.

The first command gets the storage logical unit object named LUN01 and stores the object in the $LU variable

The second command gets the host group object named All Hosts and stores the object in the $HostGroup variable.

The last command allocates LUN01 to host group All Hosts.

PS C:\> $LU = Get-SCStorageLogicalUnit -Name "LUN01"
PS C:\> $HostGroup = Get-SCVMHostGroup -Name "All Hosts"
PS C:\> Set-SCStorageLogicalUnit -StorageLogicalUnit $LU -VMHostGroup $HostGroup
