DESCRIPTION
The Add-PhysicalDisk cmdlet adds a physical disk to the specified storage pool. The cmdlet can also assign a ManualSelect physical disk already in the
storage pool to a specific virtual disk.
PARAMETERS
-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.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-PhysicalDisks <CimInstance[]>
Specifies the physical disk objects to add to the storage pool. Enter one or more PhysicalDisk CIM objects.
Required? true
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-StoragePool <CimInstance>
Specifies the storage pool object to which you want to add the physical disk(s). Enter a StoragePool CIM object.
Required? true
Position? 1
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? True (ByValue)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-StoragePoolFriendlyName <String>
Specifies the friendly name of the storage pool to which to add the physical disk.
Required? true
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-StoragePoolName <String>
Specifies the name of the storage pool, provided by the Storage Management Provider, to which to add the physical disk.
Required? true
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-StoragePoolUniqueId <String>
Specifies the ID of the storage pool to which to add the physical disk.
Required? true
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false
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.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Usage [<Usage>]
Specifies the allocation method (usage) for the disk. Valid values are AutoSelect, HotSpare, Journal, ManualSelect, Retired, and Unknown.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-VirtualDisk <CimInstance>
Specifies the virtual disk object to which to exclusively assign the physical disk(s). Enter one or more VirtualDisk CIM objects.
To manually assign a physical disk to a virtual disk, first add the physical disk to the appropriate pool and set the Usage property on the disk to
ManualSelect. You can do so by using the Add-PhysicalDisk or Set-PhysicalDisk cmdlets.
Required? true
Position? 1
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? True (ByValue)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-VirtualDiskFriendlyName <String>
Specifies the friendly name of the virtual disk to which to exclusively assign the physical disks.
To manually assign a physical disk to a virtual disk, first add the physical disk to the appropriate pool and set the Usage property on the disk to
ManualSelect. You can do so by using the Add-PhysicalDisk or Set-PhysicalDisk cmdlets.
Required? true

Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-VirtualDiskName <String>
Required? true
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-VirtualDiskUniqueId <String>
Specifies the ID of the virtual disk to which to exclusively assign the physical disks.
To manually assign a physical disk to a virtual disk, first add the physical disk to the appropriate pool and set the Usage property on the disk to
ManualSelect. You can do so by using the Add-PhysicalDisk or Set-PhysicalDisk cmdlets.
Required? true

Default value false
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-WhatIf [<SwitchParameter>]
Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run.Shows what would happen if the cmdlet runs. The cmdlet is not run.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value false
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
<CommonParameters>
This cmdlet supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug,
ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction, WarningVariable,
OutBuffer, PipelineVariable, and OutVariable. For more information, see
about_CommonParameters (https:/go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=113216).
INPUTS
Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#ROOT/Microsoft/Windows/Storage/MSFT_StoragePool
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/windo ... 30551.aspx
You can pipe an MSFT_StoragePool object to the StoragePool parameter.
Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#ROOT/Microsoft/Windows/Storage/MSFT_VirtualDisk
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/windo ... 30584.aspx
You can pipe an MSFT_VirtualDisk object to the VirtualDisk parameter.
OUTPUTS
Example 1: Adding a physical disk by storage pool friendly name
PS C:\\> $PDToAdd = Get-PhysicalDisk -FriendlyName PhysicalDisk5
PS C:\\> Add-PhysicalDisk -PhysicalDisks $PDToAdd -StoragePoolFriendlyName CompanyData
This example gets the PhysicalDisk object for the physical disk named PhysicalDisk5 and assigns it to the $PDToAdd variable. It then adds the
PhysicalDisk object to the storage pool named CompanyData.
Example 2: Adding all available physical disks
PS C:\\> $PDToAdd = Get-PhysicalDisk -CanPool $True
PS C:\\> Add-PhysicalDisk -StoragePoolFriendlyName "Demo Pool" -PhysicalDisks $PDToAdd
This example gets all PhysicalDisk objects that can be added to a storage pool and assigns them to the $PDToAdd variable. It then adds the available
physical disks to the storage pool named Demo Pool.
Example 3: Piping a storage pool to Add-PhysicalDisk
PS C:\\> Get-StoragePool -IsPrimordial $False | Add-PhysicalDisk -PhysicalDisks (Get-PhysicalDisk -CanPool $True)
This example gets all storage pools (except primordial pools) and pipes the output to the Add-PhysicalDisk cmdlet (this will not work if you created
more than one storage pool). This example then uses the Get-Physical Disk cmdlet inside of parentheses to specify all available physical disks without
using variables.
Example 4: Manually assigning physical disks to a virtual disk
PS C:\\> Add-PhysicalDisk ????????VirtualDiskFriendlyName UserData ????????PhysicalDisks (Get-PhysicalDisk -FriendlyName PhysicalDisk3, PhysicalDisk4)
This example gets two physical disks that have already been added to the storage pool and designated as ManualSelect disks, PhysicalDisk3 and
PhysicalDisk4, and assigns them to the virtual disk UserData.
