Description

The Get-VolumeCorruptionCount cmdlet gets a count of the file system errors on the NTFS volume. Chkdsk scans a volume for file system errors and stores the result as metadata. This cmdlet enumerates the list of errors on the volume and returns a count of the errors. If you specify the Verbose parameter, the cmdlet also generates a description for each error.

This command gets the volume corruption count for the computer on which you run the cmdlet.

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

-DriveLetter

Specifies an array of letters that identify one or more drives or volumes in the system. The cmdlet gets the volume corruption count for the drives or volumes you specify.

Type:Char[]
Position:0
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-FileSystemLabel

Specifies an array of file system labels. The cmdlet gets the volume corruption count for the file system labels you specify.

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

-InputObject

Specifies the input object that is used in a pipeline command.

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

-ObjectId

Specifies an array of IDs, as strings. The ID is not globally unique.

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

-Path

Specifies an array of paths. The cmdlet gets the volume corruption count for the paths you specify.

Type:String[]
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:True
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

Inputs

CimInstance

You can use the pipeline operator to pass a Volume object to the InputObject parameter.

Outputs

UInt32

This cmdlet returns the number of errors on the volume.

Notes

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