Get-StorageTier |
Gets storage tiers on Windows Storage subsystems.
Get-StorageTier [[-FriendlyName] <String[]>] [-MediaType <MediaType[]>] [-CimSession <CimSession[]>]
[-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] [-AsJob] [<CommonParameters>]
Get-StorageTier [-UniqueId <String[]>] [-MediaType <MediaType[]>] [-CimSession <CimSession[]>]
[-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] [-AsJob] [<CommonParameters>]
Get-StorageTier [-MediaType <MediaType[]>] [-VirtualDisk <CimInstance>] [-CimSession <CimSession[]>]
[-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] [-AsJob] [<CommonParameters>]
Get-StorageTier [-MediaType <MediaType[]>] [-StoragePool <CimInstance>] [-CimSession <CimSession[]>]
[-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] [-AsJob] [<CommonParameters>]
The Get-StorageTier cmdlet gets storage tiers on Windows Storage subsystems. Storage tiers are physical disks that are grouped by characteristics, for example, solid-state drives (SSD) and hybrid hard drives (HHD).
PS C:\>Get-StorageTier -FriendlyName "StoreTier01"
This command gets the storage tier named StoreTier01.
PS C:\> Get-StoragePool -FriendlyName "StorePool01" | Get-StorageTier
This command gets the object that contains the storage pool named StorePool01, and then passes the object to the Get-StorageTier cmdlet by using the pipeline operator. The Get-StorageTier cmdlet gets the storage tier from the storage pool object.
PS C:\>Get-VirtualDisk -FriendlyName "VDisk01" | Get-StorageTier
This command uses the Get-VirtualDisk cmdlet to get the tiered virtual disk named VDisk01. The command passes the virtual disk to the Get-StorageTier cmdlet by using the pipeline operator. The Get-StorageTier cmdlet gets the storage tiers that compose the tiered virtual disk.
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: FalseSpecifies an array of friendly names of storage tiers to get.
Type: String[]
Parameter Sets: ByFriendlyName
Aliases:
Required: False
Position: 0
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters: FalseSpecifies an array of media types. The cmdlet gets the storage tiers for the media type that you specify. The acceptable values for this parameter are:
- SSD
- HDD
Type: MediaType[]
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:
Accepted values: Unspecified, HDD, SSD, SCM
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: FalseSpecifies a storage pool as a CIMInstance object. The cmdlet gets the storage tiers for the storage pool that you specify. To obtain a storage pool, use the Get-StoragePool cmdlet.
Type: CimInstance
Parameter Sets: ByStoragePool
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 an array of IDs of storage tiers to get.
Type: String[]
Parameter Sets: ByUniqueId
Aliases: Id
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters: FalseSpecifies a virtual disk as a CIMInstance object. The cmdlet gets the storage tiers for the virtual disk that you specify. To obtain a virtual disk, use theGet-VirtualDisk cmdlet.
Type: CimInstance
Parameter Sets: ByVirtualDisk
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.
You can use the pipeline operator to pass an MSFT_StoragePool object to the StoragePool parameter to get the storage tier associated with the StoragePool object.
You can use the pipeline operator to pass an MSFT_VirtualDisk object to the VirtualDisk parameter to get the storage tier associated with the VirtualDisk object.
This cmdlet returns an object that contains details about the storage tier, such as tier friendly name, media type and size.
- When used in Failover Cluster, cmdlets from the Storage module operate on cluster level (all servers in the cluster).
