Set-PhysicalDisk |
Sets attributes on a specific physical disk.
Set-PhysicalDisk [-NewFriendlyName <String>] [-Description <String>] [-Usage <Usage>] [-MediaType <MediaType>]
-UniqueId <String> [-CimSession <CimSession[]>] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] [-AsJob] [<CommonParameters>]
Set-PhysicalDisk -InputObject <CimInstance[]> [-NewFriendlyName <String>] [-Description <String>]
[-Usage <Usage>] [-MediaType <MediaType>] [-CimSession <CimSession[]>] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] [-AsJob]
[<CommonParameters>]
Set-PhysicalDisk [-NewFriendlyName <String>] [-Description <String>] [-Usage <Usage>] [-MediaType <MediaType>]
[-FriendlyName] <String> [-CimSession <CimSession[]>] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] [-AsJob] [<CommonParameters>]
The Set-PhysicalDisk cmdlet sets attributes on a specific physical disk in a storage pool, other than the primordial pool when using Storage Spaces.
When using the Windows Storage subsystem, this cmdlet only works on physical disks that have been added to a storage pool.
PS C:\>Set-PhysicalDisk -FriendlyName "PhysicalDisk4" -NewFriendlyName "PhysicalDiskInSlot5"
This example changes the friendly name of PhysicalDisk4 to PhysicalDiskInSlot5.
PS C:\>Set-PhysicalDisk -FriendlyName PhysicalDisk2 -Usage AutoSelect
This example changes the Usage property of PhysicalDisk2 to AutoSelect.
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: FalseSets the description of the specified physical disk.
Type: String
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: FalseSpecifies the friendly name of the physical disk on which to set attributes.
Type: String
Parameter Sets: ByFriendlyName
Aliases:
Required: True
Position: 0
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters: FalseSpecifies the input object that is used in a pipeline command.
Type: CimInstance[]
Parameter Sets: ByObject
Aliases:
Required: True
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: True (ByValue)
Accept wildcard characters: FalseSpecifies a media type. The cmdlet changes the media type that is associated with physical disk to the media type that you specify. The acceptable values for this parameter are:
- SSD
- HDD
Type: MediaType
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:
Accepted values: HDD, SSD, SCM
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: FalseSpecifies the new friendly name of the physical disk.
Type: String
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
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 UniqueID of the physical disk on which to set attributes.
Type: String
Parameter Sets: ByUniqueId
Aliases: Id
Required: True
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters: FalseSpecifies the allocation method (usage) for the disk. Valid values are AutoSelect, HotSpare, Journal, ManualSelect, Retired, and Unknown.
Type: Usage
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:
Accepted values: AutoSelect, ManualSelect, HotSpare, Retired, Journal
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
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.
You can use the pipeline operator to pass an MSFT_PhysicalDisk object to the InputObject parameter.
- When using the Windows Storage subsystem, this cmdlet works only on physical disks that have been added to a storage pool.
- The
Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstanceobject 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. - When used in Failover Cluster, cmdlets from the Storage module operate on cluster level (all servers in the cluster).s
