The Get-Partition cmdlet returns one or more Partition objects depending on the specified criteria. This cmdlet will return a Volume object or a set of Volume objects given parameters to be used to uniquely identify a volume, or parameters to identify a set of volumes that meet the given set of criteria.
PS C:\>Get-Partition
This example returns all partitions, on all disks.
PS C:\>Get-Partition -DiskNumber 5
Disk Number: 5
PartitionNumber DriveLetter Offset Size Type
--------------- ----------- ------ ---- ----
1 H 1048576 298.09 GB IFS
This example returns all partitions on disk 5.
PS C:\>Get-Partition -DriveLetter C
Disk Number: 0
PartitionNumber DriveLetter Offset Size Type
--------------- ----------- ------ ---- ----
2 C 368050176 465.42 GB IFS
This example returns partitions associated with the volume for drive letter C.
PS C:\>Get-Partition | Where-Object -FilterScript {$_.Type -Eq "Basic"}
This example returns only the basic partitions on all disks.
Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.
Type: SwitchParameter
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: FalseRuns 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[]
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases: Session
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: FalseAccepts a Disk object as input. The Disk CIM object is exposed by the Get-Disk cmdlet.
Type: CimInstance
Parameter Sets: ByDisk
Aliases:
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: True (ByValue)
Accept wildcard characters: FalseSpecifies an ID used to identify a disk in the system.
Type: String[]
Parameter Sets: ById
Aliases: DiskPath
Required: True
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters: FalseSpecifies an array of disk numbers.
Type: UInt32[]
Parameter Sets: ByNumber
Aliases:
Required: False
Position: 0
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters: FalseSpecifies a letter used to identify a drive or volume in the system. Specifically the drive on which the partition resides.
Type: Char[]
Parameter Sets: ByDriveLetter
Aliases:
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters: FalseSpecifies the starting offset, in bytes.
Type: UInt64[]
Parameter Sets: ById
Aliases:
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters: FalseSpecifies the number of the partition.
Type: UInt32[]
Parameter Sets: ByNumber
Aliases: Number
Required: False
Position: 1
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: FalseSpecifies the storage subsystem from which to get partitions. To obtain a StorageSubsystem object, use the Get-StorageSubSystem cmdlet.
Type: CimInstance
Parameter Sets: ByStorageSubSystem
Aliases:
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: True (ByValue)
Accept wildcard characters: FalseSpecifies 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
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: FalseSpecifies the ID of the partition to get.
Type: String[]
Parameter Sets: ByUniqueId
Aliases:
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters: FalseAccepts a Volume object as input. The Volume CIM object is exposed by the Get-Volume cmdlet.
Type: CimInstance
Parameter Sets: ByVolume
Aliases:
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: True (ByValue)
Accept wildcard characters: FalseThis cmdlet supports the common parameters: -Debug, -ErrorAction, -ErrorVariable, -InformationAction, -InformationVariable, -OutVariable, -OutBuffer, -PipelineVariable, -Verbose, -WarningAction, and -WarningVariable. For more information, see about_CommonParameters.
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.
