Description

The Connect-VirtualDisk cmdlet connects a disconnected virtual disk to the specified computer when using the Windows Storage subsystem.

To connect a virtual disk to a remote computer, from a management node in a subsystem that is registered on the management node, specify the StorageNodeName parameter.

To connect to a virtual disk to a remote computer, use the CimSession parameter, or use the Enter-PSSession or Invoke-Command cmdlets in conjunction with Connect-VirtualDisk.

Examples

Example 1: Connect a virtual disk to the local computer

PS C:\>Connect-VirtualDisk -FriendlyName "VirtualDisk1"

This example connects the virtual disk named VirtualDisk1 to the local computer.

Example 2: Connect all disconnected virtual disks on a remote server

PS C:\>Get-VirtualDisk -CimSession Srv2 | Where-Object -Filter { $_.OperationalStatus -eq "Detached" } | Connect-VirtualDisk

This example uses the Get-VirtualDisk cmdlet to get all virtual disk objects on the computer Srv2 (by using the CimSession parameter). It then pipes the objects to the Where-Object cmdlet to filter out all virtual disks except those with the "Detached" operational status. Finally, it pipes these objects to the Connect-VirtualDisk cmdlet.

Example 3: Connect all disconnected virtual disks on two remote computers by using Invoke-Command

PS C:\>Invoke-Command -ComputerName Srv1, Srv2 -ScriptBlock { Get-VirtualDisk | Where-Object -Filter { $_.OperationalStatus -eq "Detached" } | Connect-VirtualDisk }

This example uses the Invoke-Command cmdlet to run the cmdlets specified in Example 2 (now specified in the ScriptBlock parameter) on multiple remote computers simultaneously, with all processing done in parallel on each computer and only the results being sent back to the local PowerShell session.

Example 4: Connect a virtual disk to a remote computer from a management node

PS C:\>Get-StorageSubSystem -FriendlyName "Clustered Storage Spaces on Cluster01" | Get-VirtualDisk -FriendlyName "VDisk01" | Connect-VirtualDisk -StorageNodeName "ClustNode1"

This example connects a virtual disk to a remote computer from a management node in a subsystem that is registered on the management node.

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

-FriendlyName

Specifies the friendly name of the virtual disk that you want to connect.

Type:String[]
Position:0
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

-Name

Specifies the name of the virtual disk that you want to connect.

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

-PassThru

Specifies that the cmdlet should output an object representing a virtual disk. By default, this cmdlet does not generate any output.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-StorageNodeName

Specifies the name of a computer on which to run the cmdlet.

Use this parameter only when you run the cmdlet from a management node to connect a virtual disk to a remote cluster subsystem for the purpose of setting the virtual disk to manual-attach. To set a virtual disk to manual-attach, use the Set-VirtualDisk cmdlet and specify the IsManualAttach parameter.

Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
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

-UniqueId

Specifies the UniqueID of the virtual disk to connect.

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

Inputs

CimInstance

You can pipe VirtualDisk objects to the InputObject parameter to specify one or more virtual disks to connect to the local computer.

Outputs

CimInstance

The Connect-VirtualDisk cmdlet does not output objects unless you use the Passthru parameter, in which case it outputs objects that represent the virtual disks that you connected.

Notes

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