Detailed Description

The Set-SCStorageArray cmdlet modifies the properties of a Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) storage array object.

Parameters

-AddStoragePoolToManagement<StoragePool[]>

Indicates whether management of a storage pool through VMM is enabled. When set to $True, VMM imports all logical unit objects hosted by the storage pool.

-CreateStorageGroupsPerCluster<Boolean]>

Indicates whether a storage group is created for each cluster.

-Description<String>

States a description for the specified object.

-DiscoverPhysicalDisks

Indicates that the cmdlet performs a level 3 discovery of physical disks.

-JobVariable<String>

Specifies that job progress is tracked and stored in the variable named by this parameter.

-LogicalUnitCopyMethod<StorageLogicalUnitCopyMethod>

Specifies the method used by the array to copy an existing logical unit. Valid values: Clone, Snapshot.

-MaximumStorageLogicalUnitNameLength<Int16>

Specifies the maximum length that the name for a logical unit can be.

-Name<String>

Specifies the name of a VMM object.

-PROTipID<Guid]>

Specifies the ID of the PRO tip that triggered this action. This allows for auditing of PRO tips.

-RemoveStoragePoolFromManagement<StoragePool[]>

Removes a storage pool from VMM management. This parameter deletes all logical unit information from VMM, but does not delete any data from the logical units themselves.

-RunAsynchronously

Indicates that the job runs asynchronously so that control returns to the command shell immediately.

-StorageArray<StorageArray>

Specifies a storage array object. This can be a Fibre Channel or iSCSI storage sub-system that is used to store virtual machine configuration and virtual disks.

-StorageClassificationAssociation<StorageClassification[]>

Specifies an array of storage classification objects that is associated with a storage pool.

-VMHostGroupAssociation<Microsoft.SystemCenter.VirtualMachineManager.HostGroup[]>

<CommonParameters>

This cmdlet supports the common parameters: -Verbose, -Debug, -ErrorAction, -ErrorVariable, -OutBuffer, and -OutVariable. For more information, see    about_CommonParameters (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkID=113216).

Inputs

The input type is the type of the objects that you can pipe to the cmdlet.

Outputs

The output type is the type of the objects that the cmdlet emits.

• StorageArray

Examples

Example 1: Change the name of a storage array

The first command gets the first item in the storage array, and then stores it in the $Array variable.

The second command changes the name of the storage array stored in the $Array variable to New Name.

PS C:\> $Array = @(Get-SCStorageArray)[0]
PS C:\> Set-SCStorageArray -StorageArray $Array -Name "New Name"
