[<CommonParameters>]



Optimize-StoragePool [-CimSession <CimSession[]>] [-PassThru] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] -UniqueId <String[]> [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION

The Optimize-StoragePool cmdlet rebalances the Spaces allocations in a pool to disks with available capacity.



If you are adding new disks or fault domains, this operation helps move existing Spaces allocations to them, and optimization improves their

performance. However, rebalancing is an I/O intensive operation.





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.

-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.

Position? named

Default value none

Accept pipeline input? false

Accept wildcard characters? false
