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 disk. The friendly name may be defined by a user and is not guaranteed to be unique.
Required? true
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-TargetStoragePoolName [<String>]
Specifiess the name of the target storage pool.
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
-VirtualDiskFriendlyName <String[]>
Specifies the friendly name of the virtual disk to be snapshot. The friendly name may be defined by a user.
Required? true
Position? 1
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-VirtualDiskName <String[]>
Specifies the name of the virtual disk. This parameter is typically read-only. This parameter is not equivalent to the VirtualDiskFriendlyName
parameter that can be set by a user.
Required? true
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-VirtualDiskUniqueId <String[]>
Specifies the unique ID of the virtual disk to be snapshot.
Required? true
Position? named
Default value none
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
<CommonParameters>
This cmdlet supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug,
ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction, WarningVariable,
