This example tests the configuration of a workgroup cluster with Node1 and Node2 using the credentials in $cred1 and $cred2, and additional parameters.

Parameters

-Cluster

Specifies the name of the cluster on which to run this cmdlet. If the input for this parameter is . or it is omitted, then the cmdlet runs on the local cluster.

Type:String
Position:10
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Confirm

Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:11
Default value:False
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Credentials

An array of credentials for the nodes.

Type:PSCredential[]
Position:3
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Destination

Specifies the location to which to copy one or more cluster logs. To copy to the current folder, use . for this parameter input. Default location is C:\Windows\Cluster\Reports.

Type:String
Position:13
Default value:(Get-Location).Path
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Disk

Specifies the disk number or disks for which to run the cmdlet. If the specified disk is online and is assigned to a clustered role or Cluster Shared Volume, you must also specify the Force parameter to take the disk offline for the duration of the storage tests. Otherwise, the specified disk must be offline before the cmdlet is run.

If the Disk parameter isn't specified, storage tests run on all disks that are available for use in the cluster or that are in the cluster resource offline or failed state.

Acceptable values are:

  • Int32, Int64, Uint32, or Uint64: A number that represents a master boot record (MBR) signature of the disk.
  • System.String: A string that represents a master boot record (MBR) signature of the disk, hexadecimal format is supported, or a string that represents the GUID of a GPT disk.
  • ClusterResource: A cluster resource object that represents a clustered disk.
  • CimInstance#MSFT_Disk: An object returned from Get-Disk, from the Windows PowerShell storage module.
Type:Object[]
Position:4
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Force

Forces the command to run without asking for user confirmation.

Type:SwitchParameter

Specifies the clustered storage pool or pools for which to run the cmdlet. When the specified storage pool is online and a virtual disk in the storage pool is assigned to a clustered role or Cluster Shared Volume, you must also specify the Force parameter to take the storage pool offline for the duration of the storage tests. Otherwise, the command will exit with an error.

The specified storage pool must be taken offline before running the storage tests. If the Pool parameter isn't specified, storage tests run on all storage pools that are available for use in the cluster or that are in the cluster resource offline or failed state.

Acceptable values are:

  • System.String: A string that represents the name of the clustered storage pool or pools.
