Get-ResiliencySetting

  • Reference
Module:
Storage

Gets the resiliency settings (also known as storage layouts) available for creating virtual disks on the specified storage subsystem.

Syntax

Get-ResiliencySetting
   [-Name <String[]>]
   [-StoragePool <CimInstance>]
   [-CimSession <CimSession[]>]
   [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>]
   [-AsJob]
   [<CommonParameters>]
Get-ResiliencySetting
   [-UniqueId <String[]>]
   [-CimSession <CimSession[]>]
   [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>]
   [-AsJob]
   [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Get-ResiliencySetting cmdlet gets the resiliency settings (storage layouts) available for creating virtual disks on the specified storage subsystem. The resiliency settings vary depending on the storage subsystem; the Windows Storage subsystem supports the Simple, Mirror, and Parity resiliency settings.

Examples

Example 1: Get all resiliency setting objects

PS C:\> Get-ResiliencySetting
Name                    NumberOfDataCopies      PhysicalDiskRedundancy  NumberOfColumns         Interleave
----                    ------------------      ----------------------  ---------------         ----------
Simple                  1                       0                       8                       65536
Mirror                  2                       1                       4                       65536
Parity                  1                       1                       8                       65536

This example gets all resiliency setting objects for each storage pool, showing which resiliency settings are available for use when creating virtual disks. If there are multiple storage pools, the same resiliency setting might appear more than once, with each object representing the resiliency setting support for a particular storage pool.

Example 2: Get only Mirror, Parity, and Simple resiliency setting objects

PS C:\> Get-ResiliencySetting -Name Mirror,Parity,Simple

This example displays only the resiliency settings for the types Mirror, Parity and Simple. Other defined resiliency settings are not displayed.

Example 3: Get a resiliency setting object by UniqueID

PS C:\>Get-ResiliencySetting -UniqueId "{5d792e9b-ca00-11e1-9350-00155db7aa01}:1"

This example displays one particular resiliency setting object by specifying its UniqueID value, enclosed in quotation marks.

Parameters

-AsJob

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-CimSession

Runs 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[]
Aliases:Session
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Name

Specifies the name of the resiliency setting or settings to get. The supported resiliency setting names vary by storage subsystem; the Windows Storage subsystem supports the following values: Simple, Mirror, or Parity.

Type:String[]
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-StoragePool

Specifies the storage pool object for which to get resiliency settings. Enter a StoragePool CIM object. The Storage Pool CIM object is exposed by the Get-StoragePool cmdlet.

Type:CimInstance
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-ThrottleLimit

Specifies 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
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-UniqueId

Specifies the UniqueID of the resiliency setting object to get. If the UniqueID includes brackets, enclose the string in quotation marks.

Type:String[]
Aliases:Id
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

Inputs

CimInstance

You can pipe an MSFT_StoragePool object to the StoragePool parameter to get the resiliency setting associated with the StoragePool object.

Outputs

CimInstance

The Get-ResiliencySetting cmdlet returns objects representing resiliency settings for a particular storage pool.

Notes

  • When used in Failover Cluster, cmdlets from the Storage module operate on cluster level (all servers in the cluster).
