DESCRIPTION
The Hide-VirtualDisk cmdlet hides the virtual disk from the host when the Storage Management Provider in use does not support masking sets. This is
equivalent to masking.
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
-FriendlyName <String[]>
Specifies a friendly name for a virtual disk. The friendly name may be defined by a user and is not guaranteed to be unique.
Required? true
Position? 1
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-InitiatorAddress [<String>]
Specifies the address for an initiator.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Name <String[]>
Specifies the name of an object or setting.
Required? true
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-PassThru [<SwitchParameter>]
Sends items from the interactive window down the pipeline as input to other cmdlets. By default, this cmdlet does not generate any output.
To send items from the interactive window down the pipeline, click to select the items and then click OK. Shift-click and Ctrl-click are supported.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-TargetPortAddresses [<String[]>]
Specifies one or more target port addresses.
Required? false
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
-UniqueId <String[]>
Specifies an ID used to uniquely identify a Disk object in the system. The ID persists through restarts.
Required? true
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Confirm [<SwitchParameter>]
Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.
Required? false
