Description
The Get-StorageTierSupportSize cmdlet gets the minimum and maximum possible sizes of a storage tier. Use this information to create or extend a virtual disk with the specified resiliency setting on a Windows Storage subsystem.
Examples
Example 1: Get the size estimate for a mirror space
PS C:\> Get-StorageTierSupportedSize -FriendlyName "*SSD*" -ResiliencySettingName "Mirror"
SupportedSizes TierSizeMin TierSizeMax TierSizeDivisor

{} 4294967296 2130303778816 4294967296
This command gets the storage tier supported size estimates for capacity of a Fast (SSD) tier for a mirror space by using the FriendlyName and ResiliencySettingName parameters.
Parameters
-AsJob
Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.
Parameter properties
| Type: | SwitchParameter |
| Default value: | None |
| Supports wildcards: | False |
| DontShow: | False |
Parameter sets
(All)
| Position: | Named |
| Mandatory: | False |
| Value from pipeline: | False |
| Value from pipeline by property name: | False |
| Value from remaining arguments: | 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.
Parameter properties
| Type: | CimSession[] |
| Default value: | None |
| Supports wildcards: | False |
| DontShow: | False |
| Aliases: | Session |
Parameter sets
(All)
| Position: | Named |
| Mandatory: | False |
| Value from pipeline: | False |
| Value from pipeline by property name: | False |
| Value from remaining arguments: | False |
-FriendlyName
Specifies an array of friendly names. The cmdlet gets the storage tiers that match the names that you specify.
Parameter properties
| Type: | String[] |
| Default value: | None |
| Supports wildcards: | False |
| DontShow: | False |
Parameter sets
ByFriendlyName
| Position: | 0 |
| Mandatory: | True |
| Value from pipeline: | False |
| Value from pipeline by property name: | True |
| Value from remaining arguments: | False |
-InputObject
Specifies the input object that is used in a pipeline command.
Parameter properties
| Type: | CimInstance[] |
| Default value: | None |
| Supports wildcards: | False |
| DontShow: | False |
Parameter sets
InputObject (cdxml)
| Position: | Named |
| Mandatory: | True |
| Value from pipeline: | True |
| Value from pipeline by property name: | False |
| Value from remaining arguments: | False |
-ResiliencySettingName
Specifies the name of the desired resiliency setting, for example, Simple, Mirror, or Parity.
Parameter properties
| Type: | String |
| Default value: | None |
| Supports wildcards: | False |
| DontShow: | False |
| Aliases: | Name |
Parameter sets
(All)
| Position: | Named |
| Mandatory: | False |
| Value from pipeline: | False |
| Value from pipeline by property name: | True |
| Value from remaining arguments: | 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.
Parameter properties
| Type: | Int32 |
| Default value: | None |
| Supports wildcards: | False |
| DontShow: | False |
Parameter sets

| Value from pipeline by property name: | False |
| Value from remaining arguments: | False |
-UniqueId
Specifies an array of unique IDs, as strings.
Parameter properties
| Type: | String[] |
| Default value: | None |
| Supports wildcards: | False |
| DontShow: | False |
| Aliases: | Id |

CommonParameters
This cmdlet supports the common parameters: -Debug, -ErrorAction, -ErrorVariable, -InformationAction, -InformationVariable, -OutBuffer, -OutVariable, -PipelineVariable, -ProgressAction, -Verbose, -WarningAction, and -WarningVariable. For more information, see about_CommonParameters.
Inputs
CimInstance
You can use the pipeline operator to pass an MSFT_StorageTier object to the InputObject parameter to get the storage tier supported size associated with the StorageTier object.
Outputs
PSCustomObject
This cmdlet returns an object that lists the minimum and maximum amounts of space that the specified type of virtual disk could use in the specified storage tier as well as the tier size divisor. These values are System.UInt64 objects.
Notes
- When used in Failover Cluster, cmdlets from the Storage module operate on cluster level (all servers in the cluster).
