You can use the Get-Datastore cmdlet to retrieve a specific datastore or a list of all of your datastores. The syntax of the Get-Datastore cmdlet is as follows:
Get-Datastore [-Server <VIServer[]>] [[-Name] <String[]>] [-Location <VIObject[]>] [-RelatedObject <DatastoreRelatedObjectBase[]>] [-Refresh] [-Tag <Tag[]>] [<CommonParameters>] Get-Datastore [-Server <VIServer[]>] -Id <String[]> [-Refresh] [<CommonParameters>]
The –Id parameter is required.
In the next example, we will retrieve the datastore with the name Cluster01_Vmfs01:
PowerCLI C:\> Get-Datastore -Name Cluster01_Vmfs01
The following is the output of the preceding command:
Name FreeSpaceGB CapacityGB ---- ----------- ---------- Cluster01_Vmfs01 248,801 249,750
