Description

The Disconnect-VirtualDisk cmdlet disconnects a virtual disk from the specified computer, revoking access to the virtual disk.

To disconnect a virtual disk from a remote computer, from a management node in a subsystem that is registered on the management node, specify the StorageNodeName parameter.

Examples

Example 1: Disconnect a virtual disk by friendly name

PS C:\>Disconnect-VirtualDisk -FriendlyName VirtualDisk01

This example disconnects a virtual disk named VirtualDisk01 from the local machine to prevent futher access to the virtual disk.

Example 2: Disconnect a virtual disk from a remote computer from a management node

PS C:\>Get-StorageSubSystem -FriendlyName "Clustered Storage Spaces on Cluster01" | Get-VirtualDisk -FriendlyName "VDisk01" | Disconnect-VirtualDisk -StorageNodeName "ClustNode1"

This command disconnects a virtual disk to from remote computer from a management node in a subsystem that is registered on the management node.

Parameters

-AsJob

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.

Parameter properties

Type:SwitchParameter
Default value:None
Supports wildcards:False
DontShow:False

Parameter sets

(All)
Position:Named
Mandatory:False
Value from pipeline:False
Value from pipeline by property name:False
Value from remaining arguments:False

-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.

Parameter properties

Parameter sets

(All)

Value from remaining arguments:False

-FriendlyName

Specifies the friendly name of the virtual disk to disconnect.

Supports wildcards:False
DontShow:False

Parameter sets

ByFriendlyName
Position:0
Mandatory:True
Value from pipeline:False
Value from pipeline by property name:True

-InputObject

Specifies the input object that is used in a pipeline command.

Parameter properties

Type:

CimInstance[]

Default value:None
Supports wildcards:False
DontShow:False

Parameter sets

InputObject (cdxml)
Position:Named
Mandatory:True
Value from pipeline:True
Value from pipeline by property name:False
Value from remaining arguments:False

-Name

Specifies the name of the virtual disk to disconnect.

Parameter properties

Type:

String[]

Default value:None
Supports wildcards:False
DontShow:False

Parameter sets

ByName
Position:Named
Mandatory:True
Value from pipeline:False
Value from pipeline by property name:True
Value from remaining arguments:False

-PassThru

Specifies that the cmdlet should output an object representing the disconnected virtual disk. By default, this cmdlet does not generate any output.

Parameter properties

Type:SwitchParameter
Default value:None
Supports wildcards:False
DontShow:False

Parameter sets

(All)
Position:Named
Mandatory:False
Value from pipeline:False
Value from pipeline by property name:False
Value from remaining arguments:False

-StorageNodeName

Specifies the name of a computer. The cmdlet disconnects the virtual disk from the computer that you specify.

Use this parameter only when you run the cmdlet from a management node to disconnect a virtual disk from a remote cluster subsystem.

Parameter properties

Type:String
Default value:None
Supports wildcards:False
DontShow:False

Parameter sets

(All)
Position:Named
Mandatory:False
Value from pipeline:False
Value from pipeline by property name:False
Value from remaining arguments:False

-ThrottleLimit

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.

Parameter properties

Type:Int32
Default value:None
Supports wildcards:False
DontShow:False

Parameter sets

(All)
Position:Named
Mandatory:False
Value from pipeline:False
Value from pipeline by property name:False
Value from remaining arguments:False

-UniqueId

Specifies the UniqueID of the virtual disk to disconnect.

Parameter properties

Type:

String[]

Default value:None
Supports wildcards:False
DontShow:False
Aliases:Id

Parameter sets

ByUniqueId
Position:Named
Mandatory:True
Value from pipeline:False
Value from pipeline by property name:True
Value from remaining arguments:False

CommonParameters

This cmdlet supports the common parameters: -Debug, -ErrorAction, -ErrorVariable, -InformationAction, -InformationVariable, -OutBuffer, -OutVariable, -PipelineVariable, -ProgressAction, -Verbose, -WarningAction, and -WarningVariable. For more information, see about_CommonParameters.

Inputs

CimInstance

You can use the pipeline operator to pass an array of VirtualDisk objects to the InputObject parameter to specify one or more virtual disks to disconnect.

Outputs

CimInstance

The Disconnect-VirtualDisk cmdlet does not output objects unless you use the PassThru parameter, in which case it outputs objects that represent the virtual disks that you disconnected.

Notes

  • When used in Failover Cluster, cmdlets from the Storage module operate on cluster level (all servers in the cluster).
