Get-PhysicalExtentAssociation

  • Reference
Module:
Storage

Gets the physical disk, storage tier, or virtual disk that is associated with a physical extent.

Syntax

Get-PhysicalExtentAssociation
   -InputObject <CimInstance>
   [-CimSession <CimSession>]
   [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Get-PhysicalExtentAssociation cmdlet gets the physical disk, storage tier, or virtual disk that is associated with a physical extent.

Examples

Example 1: Get a physical extent association for a physical extent

PS C:\>Get-PhysicalExtent -PhysicalDisk (Get-PhysicalDisk -FriendlyName "PhysicalDisk4") | Select-Object -Last 1 | Get-PhysicalExtentAssociation

This command uses Get-PhysicalExtent to get all physical extents on the physical disk named PhysicalDisk4. The command passes them to the Select-Object cmdlet by using the pipeline operator. That common Windows PowerShell cmdlet selects the last physical extent returned. That physical extent is passed to the current cmdlet, which gets its physical extent association.

Parameters

-CimSession
