Description

The Get-StorageSubSystem cmdlet gets one or more StorageSubSystem objects. If no parameters are specified, then all subsystems on the system will be returned. If two parameters are specified that conflict with unique values, then no subsystem will be returned; since none match that criteria.

Examples

Example 1: Get all storage subsystems

PS C:\>Get-StorageSubSystem

This example returns a list of all visible StorageSubSystem objects across all accessible StorageProvider objects.

Example 2: Get the Windows Storage subsystem

PS C:\>Get-StorageSubSystem -Model "Storage Spaces"
FriendlyName                            HealthStatus                            OperationalStatus
------------                            ------------                            -----------------
Storage Spaces on SRV1                  Healthy                                 OK

This example returns only the StorageSubSystem object for the Storage Spaces provider.

Example 3: Get all unhealthy storage subsystems

PS C:\>Get-StorageSubSystem -HealthStatus Unhealthy

This example gets all storage subsystems in an unhealthy state.

Example 4: Get storage subsystems that have SMPs that support ODX

PS C:\>Get-OffloadDataTransferSetting | Get-StorageSubSystem

This example displays all storage subsystems on storage management providers that support Windows Offloaded Data Transfers (ODX). Storage arrays that support ODX using the SMI-S protocol are not shown.
