OUTPUTS

Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#root\\StandardCimV2\\MSFT_NetBranchCacheDataCacheExtension



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.





Example 1: Create a default cache extension



PS C:\\>Add-BCDataCacheExtension



This command creates a data cache extension in the default location reserving five percent of the drive.





Example 2: Create a cache extension



PS C:\\>Add-BCDataCacheExtension -Path "C:\\datacache" -Percentage 10



This command adds a data cache extension in the C:\\datacache directory reserving ten percent of C:.
