DESCRIPTION

Returns the data for physical disks and disks served to clients (hosts). Filtering parameters may be specified to narrow the scope of the data returned. If no parameters are specified, data for all physical disks for all servers and all disks served to hosts in the server group will be returned. Notes: As for physical disks that are used as pass-through disks, the entire volume is considered used and the free space will be 0. The free space value for a physical disk is only valid for physical disks that are not Members of a pool. To get accurate and up-to-date values for this case, use the cmdlet Get-DcsPoolMember and pipe the object to Get-DcsPerformanceCounter.

PARAMETERS

Position: named

Default value:

Accept pipeline input: false

Accept wildcard characters: false

-Type<String[]>

Type of physical disk. More than one type can be specified and only data for the specified types will be returned. Parameter values are "Mirrored", "PassThrough", "PoolDisk", "Basic", "Dynamic", "Uninitialized", and "Unknown". If not specified, data for all types will be returned.

Required: false

Default value:

Accept pipeline input: false

Accept wildcard characters: false

-Disk<Object>

PhysicalDiskData object, name, or ID that identifies a physical disk. To resolve by name, the name must be unique to the server group or the server must be specified. If the physical disk is specified, only data for that physical disk will be returned.

Position: named

Default value:

Accept pipeline input: false

Accept wildcard characters: false

-SharedDisk<Object>

Name or Shared Physical Disk ID that identifies a shared physical disk. To resolve by name, the name must be unique to the server group or the server must be specified. If the shared physical disk is specified, only data for that shared physical disk will be returned.

Required: false

Position: named

Default value:

Accept pipeline input: false

Accept wildcard characters: false

-Connection<String>

Alias of the connection to the server group. If not specified, the default connection is used.
