Input Types

BackupExec.Management.CLI.BEStorageArrayDevice

You can pipe a Backup Exec storage array object to Get-BEStorageArrayPhysicalDisk.

System.Guid

You can pipe a System.Guid that contains the ID of a Backup Exec storage array physical disk object to Get-BEStorageArrayPhysicalDisk.

BackupExec.Management.CLI.BEStorageArrayPhysicalDisk

You can pipe a Backup Exec storage array physical disk object to Get-BEStorageArrayPhysicalDisk.

Return Value

BackupExec.Management.CLI.BEStorageArrayPhysicalDisk

Get-BEStorageArrayPhysicalDisk returns objects that represent Backup Exec storage array physical disks.

Examples

Example 1

C:\PS> $physicalDisks = Get-BEStorageArrayDevice -Name "Device 0001" | Get-BEStorageArrayPhysicalDisk -IsConfigured $false
C:\PS> Get-BEStorageArrayDevice -Name "Device 0001" | Submit-BEStorageArrayDeviceConfigurationJob -ConfigureHotSparesOnly -AddHotSparePhysicalDisk $physicalDisks

These commands configure all of the unconfigured physical disks on a storage array named "Device 0001" as hot spares.

Example 2

These commands configure a disk storage group with all of the unconfigured physical disks on a storage array named "Device 0001".
