Description

The Get-VirtualDiskSupportedSize cmdlet returns all sizes supported by a storage pool for virtual disk creation based on the specified resiliency setting name.

Examples

EXAMPLE 1

PS C:\>Get-VirtualDiskSupportedSize -ResiliencySettingsName Mirror

This example lists the minimum and maximum supported sizes for virtual disk creation using the specified resiliency settings name.

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

-FaultDomainAwareness

Specifies the desired level of fault tolerance. The acceptable values for this parameter are:

  • PhysicalDisk
  • StorageScaleUnit
  • StorageChassis
  • StorageEnclosure
  • StorageRack

For example, specify StorageScaleUnit if data copies should be stored on separate nodes of a Storage Spaces Direct cluster. This cmdlet refers to nodes of a Storage Spaces Direct cluster as storage scale units because you can expand the scale of the cluster by adding more nodes.

Type:FaultDomainType
Accepted values:PhysicalDisk, StorageEnclosure, StorageScaleUnit, StorageChassis, StorageRack
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-InputObject

Specifies the input object that is used in a pipeline command.

Type:CimInstance[]
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-ResiliencySettingName

Specifies the name of the desired resiliency setting, for example Simple, Mirror, or Parity.

Type:String
Aliases:Name
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-StoragePoolFriendlyName

Specifies an array of friendly names of storage pools. The cmdlet returns all sizes supported by the storage pools that you specify.

Type:String[]
Aliases:FriendlyName
Position:0
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-StoragePoolName

Specifies an array of names of storage pools. The cmdlet returns all sizes supported by the storage pools that you specify.

Type:String[]
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-StoragePoolUniqueId

Specifies an array of unique IDs of storage pools, as strings. The cmdlet returns all sizes supported by the storage pools that you specify.

Type:String[]
Aliases:StoragePoolId, UniqueId
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
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

CimInstance

You can use the pipeline operator to pass an MSFT_StoragePool object to the InputObject parameter.

Outputs

PSCustomObject

This cmdlet returns an object that lists the minimum and maximum size for creating a virtual disk in the specified pool with the specified resiliency setting.

Notes

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