Description

The Disable-StorageEnclosureIdentification cmdlet turns off the identification LED on the specified storage enclosure and, optionally, on the slots for individual disks. Administrators typically use LEDs to locate a physical disk in an enclosure for removal or replacement. This cmdlet requires a storage enclosure that supports SCSI Enclosure Services (SES).

Examples

Example 1: Disable identification of an enclosure

PS C:\>Disable-StorageEnclosureIdentification -FriendlyName "E11"

This command disables identification for the enclosure named E11.

Example 2: Disable identification of specified slot numbers

PS C:\>Disable-StorageEnclosureIdentification -FriendlyName "E11" -SlotNumbers @(20, 14)

This command disables identification for the slots numbers 20 and 14 of the enclosure named E11.

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

Type:

CimSession[]

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

Parameter sets

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

-FriendlyName

Specifies an array of friendly names. This cmdlet turns off the identification LEDs for the enclosures that the names specify or for slots that belong to the specified enclosures.

Parameter properties

Type:

String[]

Default value:None
Supports wildcards:False
DontShow:False

Parameter sets

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

-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

-PassThru

Returns an array of StorageEnclosure objects. 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

-SlotNumbers

Specifies an array of slot numbers. This cmdlet turns off the identification LEDs for the slots that the numbers identify.

Parameter properties

Type:

UInt32[]

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 an array of IDs. This cmdlet turns off the identification LEDsfor the enclosures that the IDs specify or for slots that belong to the specified enclosures.

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.

Outputs

MSFT_StorageEnclosure

This cmdlet does not generate any output. If you specify the Passthru parameter, the cmdlet returns an array of MSFT_StorageEnclosure objects.

Notes

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