DESCRIPTION
The Remove-StoragePool cmdlet deletes a storage pool. If the storage pool contains virtual disks, you must delete the virtual disks prior to removing
the storage pool.
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 the storage pool to be removed. 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
-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
-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
Position? named
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

<CommonParameters>
This cmdlet supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug,
ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction, WarningVariable,

The Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance object is a wrapper class that displays Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) objects. The
path after the pound sign (#) provides the namespace and class name for the underlying WMI object.

EXAMPLE 1
PS C:\\>Remove-StoragePool -FriendlyName "DemoPool"
This example removes the storage pool with the friendly name DemoPool. When a storage pool is created, it consumes one or more physical disks to create
the pool, from which virtual disks are subsequently created. The removal of a storage pool, which can only be performed after all virtual disks have
first been removed, destroys the storage pool, and returns the physical disks back to a non-pooled state, where they may be re-consumed.
