Detailed Description

The Connect-VirtualDisk cmdlet connects a disconnected virtual disk to the specified computer when using the Storage Spaces subsystem.

To connect to a virtual disk to a remote computer, use the CimSession parameter, or use the Enter-PSSession or Invoke-Command cmdlets in conjunction with Connect-VirtualDisk.

Parameters

-AsJob

Aliases	none
Required?	false
Position?	named
Default Value	none
Accept Pipeline Input?	false
Accept Wildcard Characters?	false

-CimSession<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.

Aliases	Session
Required?	false
Position?	named
Default Value	none
Accept Pipeline Input?	false
Accept Wildcard Characters?	false

-FriendlyName<String[]>

Specifies the friendly name of the virtual disk that you want to connect.

Aliases	none
Required?	true
Position?	1
Default Value	none
Accept Pipeline Input?	True (ByPropertyName)
Accept Wildcard Characters?	false

-InputObject<CimInstance[]>

Specifies a VirtualDisk object or an array of VirtualDisk objects to connect. Enter a VirtualDisk CIM object or an array of VirtualDisk objects.

Aliases	none
Required?	true
Position?	named
Default Value	none
Accept Pipeline Input?	True (ByValue)
Accept Wildcard Characters?	false

-Name<String[]>

Specifies the name of the virtual disk that you want to connect.

Aliases	none
Required?	true
Position?	named
Default Value	none
Accept Pipeline Input?	True (ByPropertyName)
Accept Wildcard Characters?	false

-PassThru

Specifies that the cmdlet should output an object representing a virtual disk. By default, this cmdlet does not generate any output.

Aliases	none
Required?	false
Position?	named
Default Value	none
Accept Pipeline Input?	false
Accept Wildcard Characters?	false

-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.

Aliases	none
Required?	false
Position?	named
Default Value	none
Accept Pipeline Input?	false
Accept Wildcard Characters?	false

-UniqueId<String[]>

Specifies the UniqueID of the virtual disk to connect.

Aliases	Id
Required?	true
Position?	named
Default Value	none
Accept Pipeline Input?	True (ByPropertyName)
Accept Wildcard Characters?	false

<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_VirtualDisk

You can pipe VirtualDisk objects to the InputObject parameter to specify one or more virtual disks to connect to the local computer.

Outputs

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

Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#ROOT/Microsoft/Windows/Storage/MSFT_VirtualDisk

The Connect-VirtualDisk cmdlet does not output objects unless you use the Passthru parameter, in which case it outputs objects that represent the virtual disks that you connected.

Notes

The Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance object is a wrapper class that displays Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) objects. The path after the pound sign (#) provides the namespace and class name for the underlying WMI object.

Examples

Example 1: Connect a virtual disk to the local computer

This example connects the virtual disk named VirtualDisk1 to the local computer.

PS C:\> Connect-VirtualDisk –FriendlyName "VirtualDisk1"

Example 2: Connect all disconnected virtual disks on a remote server

This example uses the Get-VirtualDisk cmdlet to get all virtual disk objects on the computer Srv2 (by using the CimSession parameter). It then pipes the objects to the Where-Object cmdlet to filter out all virtual disks except those with the “Detached” operational status. Finally, it pipes these objects to the Connect-VirtualDisk cmdlet.

PS C:\> Get-VirtualDisk –CimSession Srv2 | Where-Object -Filter { $_.OperationalStatus -eq "Detached" } | Connect-VirtualDisk

Example 3: Connect all disconnected virtual disks on two remote computers by using Invoke-Command

This example uses the Invoke-Command cmdlet to run the cmdlets specified in Example 2 (now specified in the ScriptBlock parameter) on multiple remote computers simultaneously, with all processing done in parallel on each computer and only the results being sent back to the local PowerShell session.

PS C:\> Invoke-Command -ComputerName Srv1, Srv2 -ScriptBlock { Get-VirtualDisk | Where-Object -Filter { $_.OperationalStatus -eq "Detached" } | Connect-VirtualDisk }
