DESCRIPTION

The Get-FileStorageTier cmdlet gets all the files assigned to a Storage tier on a tiered volume stored on a tiered Storage space, and the status of each

file. A file that you assign to a Storage tier is called a pinned file. The possible status values are the following:



-- Not on tier

-- Completely on tier

-- Partially on tier
