DESCRIPTION

The Set-VMHardDiskDrive cmdlet configures a virtual hard disk.

EXAMPLES

Example 1

PS C:\> Set-VMHardDiskDrive -VMName TestVM -Path .\Test.vhd

Configures the hard drive of virtual machine TestVM to use Test.vhd as its media.

Example 2

PS C:\> Get-VMHardDiskDrive -VMName TestVM -ControllerType IDE -ControllerNumber 1 -ControllerLocation 0 | Set-VMHardDiskDrive -ToControllerLocation 1

Moves the virtual hard drive on virtual machine TestVM from IDE 1,0 to IDE 1,1.
