Remove-HypHostingUnitStorage

Nov 06, 2015

Removes storage from a hosting unit.

Syntax

Remove-HypHostingUnitStorage [-LiteralPath] <String> [-StoragePath <String>] [-StorageType <StorageType>] [-LoggingId <Guid>] [-AdminAddress <String>] [<CommonParameters>]

Detailed Description

Lets you remove storage locations from a hosting unit. This does not remove the storage from the hypervisor, just the reference to the storage for the Host Service. After it is removed, the storage is no longer used to store hard disks (when creating new virtual machines with the Machine Creation Services). The hard disks already located on the storage remain in place and virtual machines that have already been created continue to use the storage until they are removed from the deployment. This command cannot be used if the connection for the hosting unit is in maintenance mode. If the storage location to be removed no longer exists on the hypervisor for the hosting unit, you must supply a fully qualified path to the storage location.

Notes

After storage is removed, it is the administrator's responsibility to maintain its contents. The Citrix XenDesktop Machine Creation Services do not try to clean up any data that is stored in the storage location.

If all storage is removed from the hosting unit, other features of the Machine Creation Services stop functioning until some storage is added again.

In the case of failure, the following errors can be produced.
