SYNOPSIS
Assigns a file to a storage tier.SYNTAX

[-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [ ] DESCRIPTION
The Set-FileStorageTier cmdlet assigns a file to a specified storage tier. Assigning a file to a tier is also
called pinning the file to a tier. To pin a file to a storage tier, the file must be on a volume that is hosted by the same tiered storage space. If you pin a file that is already assigned to a different tier, the file changes assignment the next time tier optimization takes place.PARAMETERS
-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-DesiredStorageTier
Specifies the storage tier, as a CimInstance object, to pin a file to. To obtain a storage tier object, usethe Get-StorageTier cmdlet.
Required? true Position? named Default value noneAccept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false-DesiredStorageTierFriendlyName
Specifies the friendly name of a storage tier to pin a file to. Required? true Position? named Default value noneAccept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false-DesiredStorageTierUniqueId
Specifies the unique ID, as a string, of a storage tier to pin a file to. Required? true Position? named Default value noneAccept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false-FilePath
Specifies the full path of a file. The cmdlet pins the file that you specify to a storage tier. Required? true Position? named Default value noneAccept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? 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 PowerShellr 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] -Confirm [
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 [
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 Default value false Accept pipeline input? false Accept wildcard characters? false] This cmdlet supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug, ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction, WarningVariable, OutBuffer, PipelineVariable, and OutVariable.

Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimInstance#ROOT/Microsoft/Windows/Storage/MSFT_StorageTier http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/windows/desktop/dn535818(v=vs.85).aspx You can use the pipeline operator to pass an MSFT_StorageTier object to the DesiredStorageTier parameter.OUTPUTS
This cmdlet does not generate any output.Example 1: Pin a file to a storage tier
PS C:\> $StorageTier = Get-StorageTier -FriendlyName "Tier07"
PS C:\> Set-FileStorageTier -DesiredStorageTier $StorageTier -FilePath "D:\DataFile06.txt"
The first command uses the Get-StorageTier cmdlet to get a storage tier named Tier07, and then stores the tier in
the $StorageTier variable.
The second command pins the specified file to a storage tier. The command specifies the storage tier by using theobject stored in the $StorageTier variable.
Example 2: Pin a file to a storage tier by using an ID
PS C:\> $StorageTier = Get- StorageTier -FriendlyName "Tier07"
PS C:\> Set-FileStorageTier -DesiredStorageTierUniqueId $StorageTier.UniqueId -FilePath "D:\DataFile06.txt"
The first command uses the Get-StorageTier cmdlet to get a storage tier named Tier07, and then stores the tier in
the $StorageTier variable.
The second command pins the specified file to a storage tier. The command specifies the ID of the storage tier byusing the UniqueID property of the storage tier object stored in the $StorageTier variable.
