Name | Type | Description | Required? | Pipeline Input | Default Value |
---|
VDisk | VDisk[] | Specifies the VDisk objects you want to move. | true | true (ByValue) |
Datastore | Datastore | Specifies the datastore to which you want to move the metadata of the VDisk object. For flat disk, the contents of the disk are also moved to the specified datastore. | true | false |
Confirm | SwitchParameter | If the value is $true, indicates that the cmdlet asks for confirmation before running. If the value is $false, the cmdlet runs without asking for user confirmation. | false | false |
RunAsync | SwitchParameter | Indicates that the command returns immediately without waiting for the task to complete. In this mode, the output of the cmdlet is a Task object. For more information about the RunAsync parameter run "help About_RunAsync" in the VMware PowerCLI console. | false | false |
ScsiLun | ScsiLun | Specifies the new backing SCSI LUN for the RDM VDisk object that is moved. | true | false |
Server | VIServer[] | Specifies the vCenter Server systems on which you want to run the cmdlet. If no value is given to this parameter, the command runs on the default servers. For more information about default servers, see the description of Connect-VIServer. | false | false |
StorageFormat | VDiskStorageFormat | Specifies the new storage format of the flat VDisk object that is moved. | false | false |
WhatIf | SwitchParameter | Indicates that the cmdlet is run only to display the changes that would be made and actually no objects are modified. | false | false |
-------------- Example 1 --------------
Move-VDisk -VDisk $vDisk -Datastore $ds
Moves the flat VDisk object $vDisk to the $ds datastore.
-------------- Example 2 --------------
Move-VDisk -VDisk $vDisk -ScsiLun $scsiLun -Datastore $ds
Moves the raw VDisk object $vDisk on the $scsiLun SCSI LUN and stores metadata of this object on the $ds datastore.
