Windows PowerShell command on Get-command Enable-PhysicalDiskIndication

NAME

Enable-PhysicalDiskIdentification

SYNOPSIS

Enables the identification LED on the specified physical disk.

SYNTAX

Enable-PhysicalDiskIdentification [-FriendlyName] [-CimSession ] [-ThrottleLimit ]

[]

Enable-PhysicalDiskIdentification [-CimSession ] [-ThrottleLimit ] -UniqueId

[]

Enable-PhysicalDiskIdentification [-CimSession ] [-ThrottleLimit ] []

DESCRIPTION

The Enable-PhysicalDiskIdentification cmdlet enables the identification LED on the specified physical disk. The

LED is typically used for visual identification of the location of a physical disk in an enclosure for removal and replacement operations. This cmdlet requires a storage enclosure that supports SCSI Enclosure Services (SES).

PARAMETERS

-CimSession []

Required? false Position? named Default value none Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false

-FriendlyName

Specifies the friendly name of the disk on which to enable the identification LED. Required? true Position? 1 Default value none Accept pipeline input? true(ByValue) Accept wildcard characters? false

-ThrottleLimit []

Required? false Position? named Default value none Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false

-UniqueId

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(ByValue) Accept wildcard characters? false This cmdlet supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug, ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction, WarningVariable, OutBuffer, PipelineVariable, and OutVariable. For more information, see about_CommonParameters (https:/go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=113216).

INPUTS

Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#ROOT/Microsoft/Windows/Storage/MSFT_PhysicalDisk You can pipe a Disk object to the InputObject parameter.

OUTPUTS

Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#ROOT/Microsoft/Windows/Storage/MSFT_PhysicalDisk This cmdlet outputs an object that represents the physical disk for which you enabled the identification LED.

NOTES

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: Enable the identification LED on all physical disks in a pool

PS C:\>$stpool = (Get-StoragePool -FriendlyName "SpacePool")

PS C:\> Enable-PhysicalDiskIndication -StoragePool $stpool

This example enables the identification LED on all physical disks associated with the storage pool named SpacePool. This is useful for identifying a specific virtual disk, when the LED on the disk in question is not functioning.

Example 2: Enable the identification LED on all physical disks used by a virtual disk

PS C:\>$vdisk = (Get-VirtualDisk -FriendlyName "Bruce's Music")

PS C:\> Enable-PhysicalDiskIndication -VirtualDisk $vdisk

This example enables the identification LED on all physical disks associated with the virtual disk named Bruce's Music to visually identify the physical disk associated with the virtual disk.

Example 3: Enable the identification LED on all disks that are not healthy

PS C:\>Get-PhysicalDisk | Where-Object -FilterScript { $_.HealthStatus -Ne "healthy" } |

Enable-PhysicalDiskIndication

This example gets all physical disks with a health status that is not Healthy, and pipes the disks to the

Enable-PhysicalDiskIndication cmdlet, enabling the LEDs on the disks, if supported by the drive enclosure.
