Get-StorageReliabilityCounter

Get-StorageReliabilityCounter

Gets the storage reliability counters for the disk or physical disk that you specify.

Syntax

Parameter Set: ByPhysicalDisk
Get-StorageReliabilityCounter -PhysicalDisk <CimInstance> [-AsJob] [-CimSession <CimSession[]> ] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32> ] [ <CommonParameters>]

Parameter Set: ByVirtualDisk
Get-StorageReliabilityCounter -Disk <CimInstance> [-AsJob] [-CimSession <CimSession[]> ] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32> ] [ <CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

Gets the storage reliability counters for the disk or physical disk that you specify. These counters include information about such things as the device temperature, errors encountered, wear, and length of time the device has been in use.

Parameters

-AsJob

Aliases	none
Required?	false
Position?	named
Default Value	none
Accept Pipeline Input?	false
Accept Wildcard Characters?	false

-CimSession<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.

Aliases	Session
Required?	false
Position?	named
Default Value	none
Accept Pipeline Input?	false
Accept Wildcard Characters?	false

-Disk<CimInstance>

Specifies the disk object for which to get storage reliability counters. Enter a Disk CIM object.

Disk objects represent disks as seen by the operating system above the storage subsystem. Disks could be actual physical hardware directly attached to the computer, or could be virtualized storage such as a virtual disk that has been assigned to a computer and appears to the operating system as a disk.

Aliases	none
Required?	true
Position?	named
Default Value	none
Accept Pipeline Input?	True (ByValue)
Accept Wildcard Characters?	false

-PhysicalDisk<CimInstance>

Specifies the physical disk object for which to get storage reliability counters. Enter a PhysicalDisk CIM object.

PhysicalDisk objects represent physical disks attached to a storage subsystem and located in a storage pool.

Aliases	none
Required?	true
Position?	named
Default Value	none
Accept Pipeline Input?	True (ByValue)
Accept Wildcard Characters?	false

-ThrottleLimit<Int32>

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.

Aliases	none
Required?	false
Position?	named
Default Value	none
Accept Pipeline Input?	false
Accept Wildcard Characters?	false

<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.

• Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#ROOT/Microsoft/Windows/Storage/MSFT_PhysicalDisk

  You can pipe an MSFT_PhysicalDisk object to the PhysicalDisk parameter to get the storage reliability counters for the specified physical disk.

• Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#ROOT/Microsoft/Windows/Storage/MSFT_Disk

  You can pipe an MSFT_Disk object to the Disk parameter to get the storage reliability counters for the specified disk.

Outputs

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

• Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#ROOT/Microsoft/Windows/Storage/MSFT_StorageReliabilityCounter

  The Get-StorageReliabilityCounter cmdlet returns a StorageReliabilityCounter object, or an array of StorageReliabilityCounter objects.

Notes

• The Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance object is a wrapper class that displays Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) objects. The path after the pound sign (#) provides the namespace and class name for the underlying WMI object.

Examples

Example 1: Get the counters for all physical disks

This example pipes the output of the Get-PhysicalDisk cmdlet to the Get-StorageReliabilityCounter cmdlet, getting the counters for all physical disks.
