Description
The Get-SCVirtualFloppyDisk cmdlet gets one or more virtual floppy disk objects from the Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) library. The virtual floppy disk file (either a Windows-based .vfd file or a VMware-based .flp file) that a virtual floppy disk object represents is stored on a library server.
Examples
Example 1: Get all virtual floppy disks on all VMM library servers
PS C:\> Get-SCVirtualFloppyDisk -VMMServer "VMMServer01.Contoso.com"
This command gets all virtual floppy disk objects VMM library on VMMServer01 and then displays information about these virtual floppy disk objects to the user. The virtual floppy disk files themselves are stored in library shares on library servers.
Example 2: Get all virtual floppy disks on a specific VMM library server
PS C:\> Get-SCVirtualFloppyDisk -VMMServer "VMMServer01.Contoso.com" | where { $_.LibraryServer.Name -eq "LibraryServer01.Contoso.com" }
This command gets all virtual floppy disk objects stored on LibraryServer01 and displays information about these virtual floppy disk objects to the user.
Example 3: Get all virtual floppy disks with a specific name on any VMM library server
PS C:\> Get-SCVirtualFloppyDisk | where { $_.Name -eq "BootFloppy.vfd" }
This command gets all virtual floppy disk objects named BootFloppy.vfd that are stored on any library server managed by VMM, and then displays information about these virtual floppy disk objects to the user.
Note: By default, the name of a virtual floppy disk object in the library is the same name (including the extension) as the name of the actual virtual floppy disk file on the library server.
Parameters
-All
Indicates that this cmdlet gets all subordinate objects independent of the parent object.
For example, the command Get-SCVirtualDiskDrive -All gets all virtual disk drive objects regardless of the virtual machine object or template object that each virtual disk drive object is associated with.
