<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_StoragePool

You can pipe an MSFT_StoragePool object to the InputObject parameter.

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 New-VirtualDisk cmdlet returns an object that represents the newly created virtual disk.

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: Creating a 100 GB virtual disk using default settings

This example creates a virtual disk named UserData from the storage pool named CompanyData that is 100GB in size, using the storage pool default settings for unspecified parameters.

PS C:\> New-VirtualDisk -StoragePoolFriendlyName CompanyData -FriendlyName UserData -Size 100GB

Example 2: Creating a thinly-provisioned mirror

This example creates a virtual disk named DataWarehouse, which is 42TB in size, uses the Mirror resiliency setting, and is thinly provisioned.

PS C:\> New-VirtualDisk -StoragePoolFriendlyName CompanyData -FriendlyName DataWarehouse –ResiliencySettingName Mirror -Size 42TB -ProvisioningType Thin

Example 3: Creating a three-way mirror

This example creates a 42 TB thinly-provisioned virtual disk on the Storage Spaces subsystem, using the Mirror resiliency setting with three data copies. This creates a three-way mirror that is capable of tolerating two disk failures).

PS C:\> New-VirtualDisk -StoragePoolFriendlyName CompanyData -FriendlyName BusinessCritical -ResiliencySettingName Mirror -NumberOfDataCopies 3 -Size 42TB -ProvisioningType Thin

Example 4: Creating a two-column mirror

This example creates a thinly-provisioned virtual disk on the Storage Spaces subsystem that uses two columns, regardless of how many physical disks are in the storage pool above the two-disk minimum for a two-way mirror.

PS C:\> New-VirtualDisk -StoragePoolFriendlyName CompanyData -FriendlyName BusinessCritical -ResiliencySettingName Mirror - -Size 42TB -ProvisioningType Thin -NumberOfColumns 2
