Hi --
I'm working in Windows Server 2012 Standard edition RTM, and I can't seem to get the new-virtualdisk cmdlet to let me do anything interesting.
-I created a storage pool with 12 40 GB disks (virtual, clearly).
-I can create virtual disks from either the GUI or new-virtualdisk, like this command:
New-VirtualDisk -FriendlyName firstvdisk -StoragePoolFriendlyName nonprimordial -size 70GB -r parity
-running new-virtualdisk firstvdisk | select * |out-gridview , however, shows that I've only got 8 columns and a physicaldiskredundancy of 1.
Thinking I've got disks (oops, I mean columns) to burn, I tried to force more columns by deleting the virtual disk and then re-creating it, adding "-NumberOfColumns 9" but got an error that it's out of range. Anything over 8 yields that error.
Similarly, trying to re-create the virtual disk with -physicaldiskredundancy 2 gets "The value for PhysicalDiskRedundancy is outside of the supported range of values."
Any clue how I would configure a storage pool that would let me set physicaldiskredundancy to 2, or use more than 8 columns? Thanks.
