Defrag method of the Win32_Volume class

Articolo
05/31/2018

The Defrag method defragments the volume.

This topic uses Managed Object Format (MOF) syntax. For more information about using this method, see Calling a Method. The Defrag method, like the Format method, can run for a very long time. These methods are normally called asynchronously. If your code cancels the call by calling IWbemServices::CancelAsyncCall (or SWbemSink.Cancel in script or Visual Basic), then the provider is not notified and the operation continues to completion. During this time, no other disk defragmentation operations can be performed, because only one instance of a defragmentation engine can run at a time.

Syntax

 uint32 Defrag(
  [in]   boolean Force,
  [out]  object DefragAnalysis
);

Parameters

Force [in]: If true, forces defragmenting of the volume even if free space is low. The default is false.
DefragAnalysis [out]: A Win32_DefragAnalysis object that contains the properties that describe the extent to which the volume is fragmented.

Return value

Return code	Description
0	Success
1	Access Denied
2	Not Supported
3	Volume Dirty Bit Is Set
4	Not Enough Free Space
5	Corrupt Master File Table Detected
6	Call Canceled
7	Call Cancellation Request Too Late
8	Defrag Engine Is Already Running
9	Unable To Connect To Defrag Engine
10	Defrag Engine Error. You may receive this code if there is less than 20% space left on the specified volume.
11	Unknown Error

Examples

The following PowerShell code sample defrags the C volume on the local machine.

Win32_Volume Class Defrag Method - Sample in PowerShell 


# First - get the volumes via WMI
$v=gwmi win32_volume



  # Display Number of volumes
"Number of volumes {0}: "  -f $v.length

# Now get the C:\ volume
$v1=$v | where {$_.name -eq "C:\"}

# Perform a defrag analysis
$v1.defraganalysis().defraganalysis

# Defrag the volume
$v1.defrag($true)

# Redo the Defrag analysis
$v1.defraganalysis().defraganalysis

The previous code sample returns the following information:
